-Issei-

Phew, I don't really get tired by teleportation because other people teleport me, but having to come here in this giant mansion every time after school is a little bit tiresome. They all treat me nicely, both the maids and Rias's family but… it is kind of weird that I have to be always respectful so as not to embarrass Rias in front of them.

I hope that this vacation will be like our training home before the… rating game… It was hard work but living there with just us was kind of more relaxing.

After Rias sent a message to us saying that we would go on a training vacation for like a week we all just accepted that we would lose more school days and went to get our things from our rooms. Later we all went to another part of the Mansion. I don't see why we're not just reuniting in another place to teleport or to the entrance to get a vehicle to whatever place we're going.

When we got there There was a… glass sphere? There is a very expensive looking miniature resort on it. It's like a ship on a bottle or more like those christmas globes with a house on it. Rias was there with a very smug smile, standing beside the Globe. She also has one of her hands gray again.

Before we could ask anything, she said " Here is where we're going to spend our vacation, just touch the thing and you will feel something pulling you, Just let it and then you will enter this place." She doesn't let us speak and just touches the thing, we see her body being transported.

We all just looked at each other for like a minute or two. I asked if I and Asia are going to be okay with this teleportation. She's fine, probably, but I'm asking more for my case. Akeno-senpai seems to confirm that it doesn't look too complicated to use so we should all be fine. We all entered at the same time and I felt myself being pulled like Rias said.

When I could see again I would see a giant resort with a beach. When I looked around, I could only see the horizon. Huh, I guess this is like the other dimension that we put in place when we fight strays or like the rating game, but it looks much better.

I turn to look at Rias and… OH. MY. OPPAI—- no , no, no, calm down, don't be weird Issei. Before she was wearing some more casual clothes, now she has a bikini, with some shorts and sunglasses. She is still looking very smug.. and hot, satan damn.

"How did you change clothes so quickly?" I hear Akeno-senpai asking.

… What does she mean— ah right. We went in almost immediately after her. I got distracted by opp– by her bikini that I didn't think about how she changed so fast..

"Did you have your bikini below your clothes?" I ask

She laughed a little. "No"

Akeno-senpai asked "Did you learn to change clothes with magic?"

"Nope."

…How did she do it then?

Her smile turns into a grin.

-Akeno-

(ɾԃσυ ყԋαʂʂ ago)

"Rias, you need to release Koneko." I try to gently shake her while she is still in bed.

"Noo–" She complains as she holds Koneko a little bit tighter. Koneko is also being really unhelpful by leaning in more into Her.

Hm… This is adorable. I would love to just let them be, but us both would end up being late. I do take a picture of this though.

"Rias, Koneko needs to get ready to go to school."

She doesn't really seem to react for a few seconds until she frowns. She finally says ".. School?"

"Yes"

When it finally looks like she processed the information she opens one eye to look at me, still sleepy and mumbles "... Fk u mean "school" ? "

…. I wish I was recording this. Her sisters's faces should they see potty mouth Rias would be hilarious. "The school, as in our Japanese school?" She doesn't react. "In Kuoh?", she still keeps just looking at me, sleepy. "Where we have our club and take care of the area with sona?".

"...Ah…" she says as finally remembers. "...Why" She yawns "only you two?"

"We all go, but you still are kind of on "medical leave" because of the rating game, remember?"

"...Ah…right…" She raises her upper body while still holding Koneko. She scratches an eye for a few seconds, then finally seems to slightly open both of them, still sleepy. "Should… I go?"

"I mean… eventually?" She is the princess of the school and her sister is one of the main sponsors of it. Plus Sona kaichou understands the situation now so she will be understating even if Rias stops going to school for a long while as long as she is still trying to accompany the subjects from here. "You are starting the magic training today so maybe wait a few more days until you know you'll be okay with your powers?"

"...'Kay". She then slowly picks up Koneko and passes her to me as if she was a big teddy bear. "Have fun… " She says as she lays down again, grabs one of the pillows and hugs it as if to substitute Koneko, and proceeds to go back to sleep.

-Grayfia-

(few hours later)

"Do you know how we can do magic?" I ask Rias. She is sitting on a chair with a table in front of her while I'm standing.

"...Imagination?"

"That and Willpower, both are important." I say while I press the controller to show the next slide on the projection on the wall. "Imagination alone would make any magic inclined devil child just start throwing magic at anything at any time, it would be absolutely chaos. Willpower alone can cast magic but it will make the magic being released be simple, even if it works and can do a lot of damage. But with both together the effect of the magic will be far greater."

I show a video of Sirzechs making destruction balls from the tip of her finger and shooting them repeatedly as if it was a gun. "Sirzechs, can easily throw destruction bolts. But when she actually wants to attack an enemy she also is thinking of throwing her magic to destroy her enemies, thus making the impact bigger."

I changed the slide and now shows Ajuka with a very complex looking magic circle. "You may also want magic knowledge if you want more certain and complex magic. We can easily throw a fire thinking just of "heat" or "burning the enemy", but if you know how fire works more than just "burning things" you may be able to burn things hotter with less energy than just throwing more magic at the fire and making it bigger. Teleportation, time manipulation, projection, summoning and other types of magic cannot be casted by will and imagination alone unless you have some kind of talent or bloodline power that makes you understand the basics by instinct."

She raises her hand. "Yes?"

"Do we have casting or chanting?"

"We do. It's more to help you concentrate on the effect of the magic. If it's a complex magic or it's a new one that you are still learning or not confident about then having a chant will help you to concentrate and focus only on said spell and willing it to reality. It helps your imagination by having an image of what the spell is supposed to look and feels like, helps on the knowledge by knowing what the spell is supposed to do, and helps on the willpower by being certain that after the chant your spell WILL be released or activated."

"... So I can just not chant, live ever again if I'm good at the spells that I will learn?" I can see on her face that she does not seem to like the idea of chanting for some reason but I will make her not have this problem whatever the reason may be. I will not allow her to get herself hurt just because she doesn't like chanting.

"You can. You may also choose just to concentrate and chant only in your mind. Saying out loud just helps on the casting but the important part is knowing what you are doing and don't get distracted in the middle of your spell. Before the spell? The spell just won't happen. After casting and releasing? It has already been casted so It won't matter. But if you get distracted in the middle of the spell there can absolutely have catastrophic consequences. It could make all the damage go to you or could even do something completely different than what was expected"

"So… it won't matter what we are saying, as long as we know the meaning? Like I make a chant that it seems that I'm going to throw fire but I actually threw water at the enemy?"

"Yes… "This seems better than just hating chanting but it's kind of a higher level strategy for someone that is just learning magic. "That is possible to do but you should start learning how to do things right before trying to pretend that you did wrong" I say. "Any other question?"

She seems to accept my suggestion and strats thinking of what else she wants to know. "Do angels have "angel magic?"

…I'm not sure what she means by that. She knows about holy magic, so it's not that. "You mean if their magic is different than ours?"

I nod.

"It is believed that they are generally the same. The angels are also a magic natured race like us, so they also have capability of releasing magic based on imagination. Though they are leaned more towards faith, so you probably won't see many angels doing a lot of creative magic than the devils or even the fallen angels. Humans from the crutch side can also cast similar magic through faith, through blessings, a connection to their faith or holy items."

She seems to accept my answer about that. Until she frowns and asks "Why do we get hurt by interacting, saying or hearing anything holy? I understand some of the things that hurt me, like an attack with holy element. But just saying something like "ame–", FUCK " She makes a pained face. "Just saying some words and the world hurting us doesn't really make sense."

"... We devils don't really care for this, because to devils it was just always a "disgusting doves and crows" thing."I say, making air quotes with my fingers. "But Ajuka tried to look into it to see if he could remove the weakness of the devils but nothing concrete. But he did have 2 theories. The first is that when we devils were born, we were born already cursed to be against angels and holy things. The second one is just that it's in our nature, that is, our magic nature makes us be the complete opposite of the holy energy of the angels and thus their specialized magic is our weakness." The theories are a little bit more complex but then we would have to talk about some of the secrets of us devils that she doesn't really need to know now.

"But it still doesn't make sense! How come words alone are enough to hurt us? If it was a magic attack that is holy in nature I could understand, but just them saying some words is enough for us to feel pain. Hell, even me just saying some random words I get hurt like just now and the closest thing that was holy we had was Asia being an ex-nun when she was human."

I can see her pouting about this. I remember that she said something similar when she was a child learning about devil weakness. Still very adorable "It's just something that we all have to deal with with Rias. Not everything you can understand, and not everything you are capable of dealing with it the way you want." I say as I caress her head

She doesn't mind but she is still pouting. "But we have been saying prohibited shit all this time and sometimes it just doesn't trigger!"

I stopped petting her, now I am confused "... What do you mean?"

"LIke, when we refer to their magic we say "holy" or "sacred" magic. But when i go to curse saying "hol" OW!" The curse triggered again. " Like this! the same word didn't hurt me before!"

Huh. "I guess that each case is a case Rias, just like how Akeno can use holy lightning due to her heritage even thought and how Asia can heal devils as well"

She still doesn't seem convinced and just continues to frown. This is cute but we better start. "Anyway before being concerned about the magic of our enemies you should first learn how to "do" magic in general."

Her frown immediately disappears and she looks at me excitedly.

-Rias-

Fucking Finally! This is what I've been waiting for, the actual start of my road to omnipotence.

"The most important thing is to learn how to control your magic. No matter how small or big is the quantity of magic in someone's body, it won't matter if the person has no control over it. Even some of the bloodline abilities may hurt their user if it's out of control. Also it helps to learn how to make a magic hit harder, normally by making it denser or with more weight in it." She raises her hands and makes fire with them, one has a big flame the size of her head but is see-through, the other is the size of a tennis ball but Is not see-through.

I carefully approach my hands towards the flames. Then I manage to touch the big flame, it feels just warm and even passing my hand through it does nothing to me. The small flame however when I tried to get closer felt that it was absurdly hotter than the other flame, so I didn't even try to touch it.

She puts out the flames and says "Now, to finally start training your magic, you need to know how to feel and release magic. You did use magic against Riser and when we were testing it with Ajuka. I believe that you can easily use magic when you are with your eyes changed. Those are when you change your mental state. But can you do it without changing your eyes?"

I can actually. I can do it easily with my eyes changed but I couldn't do it in my "normal" form at first. So I tried what I imagined to be the first active step to learn magic, that is to try and "feel" the magic inside me. It took a while but I did manage that. It was weird, well, it still feels kind of weird.

After that step is a matter of how to start manipulating the energy. I'll be real, if it wasn't for the magic eye forms that made me able to do magic on instinct, I wouldn't be able to understand how to manipulate magic in just these few days. It's as if you gain a muscle that you more or less don't really touch but you can feel it moving.

Now with that done. I proceed to release my magic in the air. To do that I need an image of what I want to release. If I just release just thinking "whatever", it will come out as "generic devil magic", because that is what we are and what we release. If I want to make a different thing like fire or destruction I need to know what I want to do and what it feels like. That same thing applies to generic non-elemental magic, I need to know what it feels like so that I can actively not add my natural "Devil element" to my magic.

"Demonic Magic" or "Devil magic" here is not "evil" magic. Is it just because it's probably a devil that is casting it, unless someone knows what it feels like and manages to do it. Imagine that is the same for "Angelic magic", or maybe they also just naturally just release holy magic by birth.

Following this process I raise my hand and I manage to perfectly make a destruction ball above it, even if it's slower than my other eyed modes, it's still progress. I look at Grayfia, waiting for my praise… why is her face in a frown?

"What?"

"Did you practice magic without supervision… even after i told you to leave everything for today?"

Oh… shit "...Maybe?"

"...What did you try?"

"Um… Sensing my magic, manipulating and releasing into different elements?"

"Different elements?"

I nod

"Which ones?"

I raise my hand and start the process again, with five fingers raised, each with a different element. Destruction, fire, Devil, non-elemental and then the cursed destruction that I do in my other eyes mode, the last one came with some difficulty.

Her face changes into surprise. I'm confused at her surprise. "What?" I ask.

"You… how did you know to do different elements?"She asks. Her tone doesn't seem upset anymore, just surprised. That 's great!

"Well… normal destruction probably because it's my bloodline magic and because I felt Sirzechs-nee's destruction, like what is supposed to be the "normal" version of mine. Fire because "heat" is relatively easy to understand and because I know what it feels to be burned because of my rating game with Riser. Devil magic because it's what naturally comes out when I "push out magic". Non-elemental because when I noticed you guys releasing magic and some of yours felt "different" so I tried removing the "devil" attribute when I released my magic. And I do know what cursed destruction feels because it's my "specialty", even if it's harder to do when I'm "normal"."

She just stares at me for a few seconds before she looks away, breathes in and out to… calm herself down? I'm not sure if she's angry at me practicing magic or if I did something crazy? I just let her do her thing.

I check my phone and see that Sona asked when we could talk person to person. I answered that maybe tomorrow if she's cool with it. She lives in her own house in Kuoh so I just need to ask Akeno to teleport me there. I also talked to Sairaorg and asked him if he wanted to meet me in My devil house or in my house when I got back to Kuoh. He did say whatever I felt most comfortable.

"Okay" I hear Grayfia talking and put my phone away. "First of all, congratulations, you just managed to skip several steps in your training." Cool. "I'm guessing that you were extremely careful when you were training these things, yes?" I see her face being a little menacing there for a second.

I nod to her. "Did I do something wrong? I just followed what I expected to be the steps to use magic."

She seems to think a little before saying "It's just that many devils just learn how to do their bloodline magic and devil magic or other elements. But normally all devils have some kind of struggle in learning "generic" or non-elemental magic at first. It's surprising that you could do it in such little time. Either your body managed to remember or you are talented in magic that we never knew. Even your old self struggled with it when she was a child."

Heh~ I'm taking the talented compliment and not the part where she is kind of comparing me to a child learning magic. "So… what now?"

"Now you will be training how to make your magic "denser ". At first it will not seem easier or more efficient than just making the magic "bigger", But eventually you will feel that not only will your magic capacity grow bigger like with any magic training, but you will also be able to throw magic faster and stronger."

That does make sense but "Won't it get in the way if i want to make some more delicate magic? Like the magic circuit or circle can only take a certain amount of magic but I give it more by accident?"

"That is also part of training. To be able to learn how to distinguish magic for battle and magic outside of combat." She says. "You from before could do what is considered "normal" for devil magic, such as teleportation and summoning. But you used far more of your power of Destruction for rogue devil extermination."

"... I can teleport?"
"NO!" She firmly says. "Your self learning in magic was acceptable because you were careful even if it wasn't ideal. But you do NOT learn space magic alone. When you already can do it then you may experiment with it but not before you have mastery over what is considered "standard devil level". "

"What do you mean "standard?"
"It means when you have 100% sure that your own teleport circles will not go horribly wrong."

"Right. So how do I start?"

"First we go to another training place"

"What is the problem with this?" I thought that we were in a training place that could take Destruction magic from Sirzechs-nee, much less mine.

"Because now that you have skipped several steps, the next ones, like today's training, are better when they are learned and under supervision. But I am one of the Maous's queen, so I won't be able to supervise you for many days without our next training place.

…? Her phrasing is weird. Why would it matter wher… No way. No fucking way!. "Ajuka already finished?!"

We change places to another room. But the room doesn't matter, what matters is what is inside of it.

Is a big transparent globe. It is as tall as me. Inside the globe we can see a mansion that is close to a beach. Damn I can't believe that this is actually happening.

"How did he do it so fast?"

"He IS the Maou in charge of magic research, he was the one that changed the time of all of hell to be the same as earth."

Fucking wicked. I don't wait and just touch the sphere before Grayfia can say anything.

I feel myself being transported. Next thing I knew, I was looking at a giant mansion. I look at the side and see the beach with a vast ocean where I can only see the horizon. I immediately went to explore the mansion. It has many rooms, 1 giant communal bathroom with a hot spring in it, it also has some showers and some very expensive looking bathtubs, it even has a sauna. The next room Is a pool that has a door to connect to the giant bathroom. And another door to get out and go to the beach.

Going out of the pool I went to look for a kitchen and saw one with everything looking expensive, the oven and multiple fridges and everything. The fridges are all filled with food. and i can see that there is a room on the side with a lot of extra food without any heat or cold. I try to feel the magic of the room and notice some kind of magic. I'm guessing that this is also time magic that doesn't let the food rot on the whole room.

With a bath and food secured I went to look at the rooms. There are some empty rooms but the many bedrooms all are lavishly furnished…. They don't have a side-room in the bedroom like back at home but I can make it later when I learn how to. All of them have their own bathrooms, with a toilet, sink, shower and bathtub.
I did find a room with my name on the door. Probably one of my sisters made it specifically for me. Inside is the same room like the others but when I checked the walk-in wardrobe I saw.. my clothes? I'm not sure if they took it from my other room or bought more. I even have some swimsuits and some training clothes that I don't remember seeing in my wardrobe. What I did get was that my room had a bigger bathroom than others and ALSO the side room to another room just as big as mine. So unnecessary… and so perfect. It was empty, I remember telling them that if they did make my side-room to let me fill it with my future junk.

There was a dining room with a big expensive-looking table. A living room with a giant tv and big couches. A library, as big as my back home but with empty shelves. And some empty rooms where I'm guessing they decided to also let me fill them later with things that I want.

When I finally felt like I explored enough for now I went to the living room and just layed on the sofa. I felt overwhelmed. Not only with the fact that I passed this idea yesterday with Ajuka and Sirzechs-nee, They did seemed interested with the idea but I didn't fucking expect they do it in less than 1 single day. I still feel like this is not real.

Shit, it still feels surreal. Reincarnation, magic, devils and everything so far was something I could understand by being a "new fantasy world", But now that i'm getting the hang of it, or at least i thought that I was getting the hang of it, just thinking about the idea of, planing the whole fucking mansion, the beach, placing it in a tiny dimension is wild of the work of what would entail. And… if they did show me here then probably the "time mechanics of the hyperbolic time chamber would be here as well right? Probably not the whole 1 year 1 day thing. But fuck even if it like 6 or 12 hours equals 1 hour outside would already be wild to have.

I just lay there decompressing on the couch. I'm not sure how much time passed but I heard the front door opening. I turn to look at the door and see Grayfia coming in.

"So, did you approve it?" She ask

…"Approve it"?! I can't contain myself. I jump from the sofa and give her the biggest hug I can. "This is fucking amazing! How the hell did you guys do this in LESS THAN 24 HOURS?"

She does return the hug "Me and Sirzechs planned some areas that we thought that you would enjoy. Most of the mansion was made by a known architect that is a friend of the family, we only specified what things we wanted and let them do the rest, specially with the other floors."

What "... Other floors?"

She looks at me a little smug "You will see them later. Now the beach part was the architect but it was Sirzechs, Serafall and I that made the parts where it gets heavier and more difficult to deal with the environment the more you get far away from the door of the training floor door. Ajuka alone was the one that dealt with managing the time."

…Damn. I am not sure what to think of having 3 Maous plus "the strongest queen" doing a task for me. Wait. "How did Leviathan-sama get involved?"

"Us 3 were discussing when she was around. She wanted to get involved to help you."

Oh? I neve met her since the rating game but I guess that she likes me? Or at least wanted to help her friends and their little sister. "She didn't ask one for Sona?"

"No actually. She didn't think that sona would need one so soon. She said that Sona was more of a strategist devil, that this kind of thing would not really be necessary because she is responsible and manages her time correctly… And because she didn't want to miss any growth that her sister has more than she already does."

Huh. I do want to meet Maou Leviathan at some point, she seems nice. "So… about the time thing?"

She seemed to hesitate a little and then said "...We decided that 1 year in 1 day was too much. Everything was built to be perfectly safe with the joint project of 3 Maous, but even then it's better to be prepared."

…Riiiiiight. Didn't even think about if things went wrong. Yeah, I can see now. I'm imagining if i say that i'm going to train for a while or go into it and ask to not be bothered, come here, something goes wrong and i can't leave. Outside might go for some hours or even days. but if I get stuck then i'm here for months or years. That would be terrifying.

"Soooo how much time flows here compared to outside?" Please be at least 8 hours here is 1 outside or something. That way I could do a lot of shit outside that I couldn't do here and just hop in here to sleep and go back.

"We decided that for now, until you are capable of safely dealing with space, time and barrier magic it will be better to let it be 24 hours here is 1 hour outside. Until you can create, manipulate and break high level barriers such as this."

…

I'm once again receiving a lap pillow from Grayfia while she pets my head to calm me down on the sofa. Not because of the red anger mode this time, The yellow and black eyes one. Apparently I was actually twitching or how much excitement I was, but can I be fucking blamed? You actually ask people "hey can you make a hyperbolic time chamber with a very expensive resort for me?" And they actually do it the next fucking day? Shit now that I hear her I can feel myself twitching again just remembering.

"Rias" She reminds me again that I should be calming down.

Yeah yeah. I know.

I went back to "trying" to calm down, the yellow and white eye does help me but the moment I released it the excitement came back, so we decided to just let me calm down on my own.

(3 hours later)

I ended up falling asleep again. I woke up, she brought me to where the elevator was but at that point I started, once again, getting excited just looking at the different floors that I was seeing. She showed me the giant training floor. One door leads to an actual recreation of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber from Dragon ball, as in, a giant endless seeming place. The other doors also had bathrooms, some bedrooms and a kitchen. I get the other one but the bedrooms here are really necessary? I mean, maybe if we were really tired to not even be able to go to the elevator? I'm not sure if it will come to that but you'll never know. There are also other training rooms but smaller. It will be useful if I want to let others train in the main one and get someone to train alone.

Grayfia spoke "We thought of putting in different training areas but at the end of the day your destruction power and the red dragon emperor are going to do a lot of environmental damage, So this chamber from your cartoon was the better option instead of something like a japanese dojo for example."

"Ohh right." I know that if I end up messing up the cursed destruction might end up going out of control, but Is issei really that strong?... I guess that we are testing it here when I bring her.

"Now Rias, we would be training your control on your normal mode but… I don't see you getting calm anytime soon. It's fine if you want to explore more of this resort."

That does sound good… But I already talked to my peerage about training so I want to get this out now and later I can start lazing around my resort. "Can we do it anyway? I know it would be better to not transform my eyes but maybe this time we can do it anyway? If I use my yellow and white eyes I can calm myself down and do this easier. But even later, because I more or less already know what it is like, I can do it easier in normal mode than if I was learning with only normal mode."

I really need to get everybody together and just name all their modes, it's getting annoying to keep repeating red/yellow and white/black or "normal" mode.

She looks at me with suspicion. "What?" I ask

"... It's not a problem of learning… The problem is that I'm not sure if you end up learning with your other eyes and THEN thinking that you could easily do it in your normal mode and end up doing it wrong. Try to imagine you are learning to do gravity magic, you manage to do it perfectly while transformed and then thinking that it is easy… only to later in normal mode you get carried away and end up on the floor, crushed by your own magic? And that's not counting space, time and other types of magic."

Wha– "Excuse you! Who do you take me for?" Does she think that I'm actually a child?

She looks at me unimpressed "Someone that was specifically told that they should NOT practice magic for the first time without supervision."

"Wh– I– But– Hmm" I have no counter for that.

She raises her brow and keeps looking at me.

Shit "... How about I promise to when I learn magic with you while transformed. I will not train on my own until you also see me do it normally?"

She's still just staring.

"Hm… please?"

She stares for a few more seconds and then just sighs. "Very well.. just, please, with or without me, always be careful with magic."

I nod to her.

"Then. Let's finally start your training. Today will be just for me to look at all your progress. I want to see what you can do for now and tell me your thought process.

Alright! Wait no. Hold on. I activate my yellow and white eyes to keep me calm and start to explain what I thought was the basics of magic. Learn how to actively feel the magic in my body, then learn how to. Manipulate it and then to release it out of the body while also thinking of what your magic is supposed to be and do out of your body.

"Great. When devils first learn magic they rely on instinct and just willpower for a long while. Only later do they start to actually start to understand the process that you just said. Of course it varies from devil to devil and what magic they want to learn and use. Now it's a matter of how fast you can create what is considered acceptable magic and how much power you can put into it without breaking your spell."

" "Break" the spell? What does that means"

"For example. Teleportation magic you don't normally put more force than necessary that you already planned. The thing that should be changing is the speed of the teleport, if you add more strength than necessary or less than needed it will fail. In a "fireball" or "destruction ball" not only is it a matter of speed but also how much power you want to add. You could do much powerful magic in the rating game and you also showed the five different spheres in your fingers.

If, for example, someone that doesn't really know how to actively think of making a sphere instead of just using willpower then it risks them getting confused, try to just "add" more power, as in either bigger or with more density, but it might end up breaking or undoing the sphere. Of course that does not apply to all spells, like a fire breath from a dragon, but we are going to train so that you get the hand of adding more power to your spells so that even if you were to suddenly get a boost, like from your pawn, you won't just become incapable of using your normal techniques."

…

Ahhhhhh. That makes so much sense. Huh, I guess that I was just making my spells as fast as I could and didn't really think about the casting speed and the process that it would entail.

"How do I train that?" I asked.

"Repetition. First we start with your power of destru-"

"Cursed POD"

"... With your cursed POD, because you are transformed, you make it a tennis ball as fast as you normally would and then release it ten times. Then on the next make twice as dense and release it 10 times. Then make twice the size and release it 10 times as well and keep repeating this process. Your increase in speed will come with how much you practice this. Of course this time is releasing 10 times for it to know up to what you can do. After you get tired you will rest and then later we repeat the process but add 10 more spheres after each rest."

"... How long am I supposed to do this?"

"We will do this for all of your five elements with yellow and white eyes for your first day. On day 2 you change to red and white eyes, we check the previous training and, if you do it acceptably, we change to manipulating mana surrounding your body for defense. Day 3 you change to your yellow and black eyes, we start with the same training from the day before but if you seem to do it easily then we change to mana sensing, as in we will see how much you are able to sense magic on everything, yourself and everything else. Day 4 we go back to your normal estate and we only train the other 3 for the whole day to make sure you can always do it.

Hm… it does sound simple on paper… I guess that when I thought of "training magic" I was thinking something like dragon ball equivalent to magic duels until I get stronger or something.

"After these 4 days, can the next training be a new type of magic?"

"As I said, it depends on how your training goes. If, and only IF, I see that you have great magic control even in your base state then the next training we can start learning basic space magic."

Space magic would be extremely nice… but when I think of "training" there is something that I urgently need besides the time mansion.

"Can I choose another magic first?"

She looks at me and tilts her head. "You don't want to learn how to teleport, make barriers or pocket spaces like this one?"

"I really want that. But i'm guessing it would not be immediately for me to get it. Before that I would like to learn gravity magic or something similar."

"Why is that?"

"I want to add weight training while I'm training here."

"But we already added that feature here." She says as she points towards the horizon of the training chamber.

"Yeah, when I'm away from the mansion, but I would like to learn how to do it on my own to always add weight training. And the thing here is that I will use it when i'm way stronger, so probably not for a long while"

She thinks for a few seconds "How exactly do you plan to use it? Because if you just want to make you "heavier" then you can just manipulate your magic around you to keep pushing you down or make the space around you heavier" She says. "Gravity magic on itself is a little bit more complicated because you are changin how the mass of an object, in this case you, interacts with the space around it, that is a little bit more complicated. Also you will need a really good magic control to be able to keep gravity magic while you are doing something else that is not a physical activity or training."

…Damn. "What about magic clothing with weight? Like a leg and wrist warmer so that I can control their weight or a bracelet that changes the gravity around my body and I can adjust it with some inputs?"

"It's either gravity magic or Enchanting, that is, putting a magic effect on an object. Both of these are not really something you learn quickly… but your idea has some merit. We will see what we can do. But that is for later. You can worry about other magic after you're done with these four days."

Awesome. This will probably not be that hard, just maybe tiresome.

(10 minutes later)

I'm now laying down on a big bean cushion. I take back what I said. It was tiresome AND hard what the fuck.

I know that I really did not understand magic in general, much less my own magic, but wow. I did manage to make up to 5 very dense 4 meter spheres of my cursed POD before running out of magic.

"Great job Rias. After this break, we'll change to your normal pow— POD. I thought about it, and we don't really need to train the fire element. Your devil magic will be useful for all of the devil spells you're going to learn. Your non-elemental magic, or just "magic" to other beings, will help you learn non-devil magic easier. Fire is more of a basic element and I believe you'll be capable of learning on your own if you want to expand on it."

"K" I was about to release my transformation but… I decided that it was actually a good idea to test how it feels to be transformed for a long period of time and even to discover if I have some time limit or side effect for continuing the transformation.

After some minutes Grayfia told me to start again. And we just did more or less the same thing the whole day.

(Day 2 of training)

I did the training from yesterday relatively easy but…

BIGGER

PRETTIER

MAKE IT PINK

BURN IT

I felt like my power wanted to be more chaotic… but I did manage to make it obey me enough to follow the training.

"Now, you already know how to ๓คภเקยɭคՇє ๓คﻮเς Շ๏ an extent, but now you need to know how to ๓๏ɭ๔ เՇ Շ๏ ץ๏ยг body" My sister says as she surrounds her hand with magic and puts it in front of her. Fuck I didn't get all of that.

"... Shi- hm. Shield?" I ask as I form a shield with my cursed POD in front of me.

"That รєє๓ร ค๔єợยคՇє for now. But you need Շ๏ ๓๏ɭ๔ เՇ more close to your body in ค ๓๏гє ς๏ภςєภՇгคՇє๔ form." She creates a shield similar to mine but makes it fold into her arm.

Oh! She wants me to do what I've done against fire chicken. I start to surround my arm with the cursed P–

"ฬคเՇ!"

I stop. I only managed to do my hand up to my wrist with my cursed POD when she just screamed. I look at her and tilt my head.

"Not. Like. That." She speaks slowly now. She creates devil magic and other magic and surrounds both of the arms with each energy.

I remove my cursed POD from my hand but it's already grayish and ticklish again… whatever. I start to surround both of my arms with generic magic. When I finish, she starts bringing some objects for me to hit. Sandbags, dummies, concrete walls and some other things.

It's annoying to hit things and probably receive more pain than the enemies that I'm hitting but I'm guessing that I'll get accustomed.

WEAK

After I'm done she calls for my attention and points her hands at me with her finger shining, seemingly ready to shoot at me?

I raise my arms to protect me and she starts shooting at me.

PAIN

'Don't really feel dangerous but it hurts alot. When it gets too much I lower my hands and put the magic to surround another part of my body. She keeps aiming where I'm protecting myself.

We continue training like that for the whole day.

(Day 3 of training)

"Alright! Fia-nee I decided to give names to these forms I have!" It was getting really annoying. Especially now that we're actually training these modes.

We're having breakfast that I made for us before starting our training. She didn't even try to stay up beside the table while I ate alone and say something like "a maid should not eat at the same table as her master" or some other bullshit. I guess that she knows that I would just complain. She did praise me for cooking because I'll be spending a lot of time here in the chamber, so it will probably be better for me to learn how to do things on my own because I could sometimes want to be here alone for some days.

She motioned me to continue while she continued to eat her pancakes.

Heh. Apparently I'm a decent cook. I cooked some desserts for myself and ended up being seen with them by Koneko, who asked me to give her one. She didn't really give any feedback but only asked for more so I'll assume that I'm good.

"Alright. Starting with the yellow ones.
Yellow with white sclera, the boring form, is now just Yellow White, Yellow 1 or YW.
The Yellow with black sclera, when I become more fun like now. Will be Yellow Black, Yellow 2 or YB.
The red with white sclera, the grumpy one. Is Red White, Red 1 or RW.
The Red with black sclera, when I become VERY angy. Is Red Black, Red 2 or RB. "

Maybe I should have come up with cooler names for them but eh. They're not really an attack for me to shout at people. They are more like for me and those who I train with to get it. I don't have to say shit to outsiders because I could, like, say it was just a "special bloodline thing". I love that this is a stupidly good reason to use.

"Sounds simple enough" she says as she finishes her pancakes and cleans her mouth. "Are you ready for your training?"
"Ye"

(4 hours later)

Fia-nee said that me knowing how to sense magic inside myself was a great thing. But the real shit was being able to do that but do that on the outside, like sensing the magic in the air and in someone else, that way it would be possible to predict if someone was charging or preparing some magic. Hell, it could make someone be able to "see" the world, granted it would have some kind of limitations like not being able to see colors or reading. Maybe if the person was really good at it they could bypass that? Anyway this whole thing sounded cool so I asked to start.

The sensing training started with only meditating and shit to start trying to feel magic outside my body. I did that relatively easy. But then Fia-nee decided that it was too simple, so instead of staying still, I was to walk around and feel the magic that she left in different points around the whole mansion. It was okay until she started to only leave a fragment of her magic, so I kind of had to get close, like a good 4 meters of it, until I got the hang of it and could easily feel it even further. Pretty good.
And then she started doing Luke's training in new hope, but instead of some ball firing lasers at me for me to reflect with a saber, it was her throwing a BUNCH OF FUCKING MAGIC AT ME! Not only was I supposed to dodge, I was also supposed to say what type of magic she was throwing at me! Even if I didn't know what the fuck the magic was, I was supposed to just say what i thought it was by the "feeling" of it. I didn't really receive any damage but the pain was like randomly being pinched by hands with big nails. I also activated my magic defenses like yesterday but it seemed that she accounted for that because it still hurts like hell.

"OW! STOP! OW! FUCK! FIRE! WATER! GENERIC MAGIC! OW! WIND!... WHAT THE FUCK SMELLY WIND?! I DON'T FUCKING KNOW! OW! FUCK!"

"Close, it's non-lethal poison gas".

…THE FUCK?! "YOU'RE POISONING ME?!"

"I'm starting to build your poison resistance."

" Are you sure that's how it works?!"

"Yes" She calmly says as she flies after me while not stopping her bullshit.

(Night of day 3)

Oh~ this is nice…

"I'm sorry Rias. But it was better to test how you deal with everything at once. Tomorrow we will test if you can do everything from these 3 days. I won't be as harsh as today, I promise." She says with a little guilty voice like she didn't bully me for the whole day.

After training I was completely spent emotionally, "spiritually" and physically. She carried me to the bathroom, gave me a bath, brought me to my bed and is now massaging me. I was annoyed but wasn't really mad at her.

… not telling her to stop though.

I didn't really notice when I ended up sleeping but I remember that it was an amazing night of sleep, we didn't sleep in the same bed so not as much as sleeping with Akeno and Koneko, but still top 2.

(Day 5)

I did manage to calm down enough to not freak out about having a time chamber by Day 4… at least enough for the training, so it was more of the same of the other 3 days, only that I was far less skilled and powerful with my magic compared to my other modes. Still pretty good though. And Grayfia did make it easier when following me around and attacking me,like she promised me… but getting hit was still really annoying.

Now that it's over she said that I can continue most of these training on my own. The magic surrounding my body is that I can just hit random shit that she left me to train. I can't really throw magic at myself and not know what I'm throwing, but I can just try to see the world only with the magic sensing, eventually I'll get better.

Also, after more or less calming down I asked why I never got one before. They had Dragon Ball here. I don't know if old me was an otaku or just really into Japan itself, not the anime so she might not have seen it. But my sisters were apparently trying to help me from the background so it was weird that they never had thought of this, especially when i had only a few days with training before receiving the news about the rating games.

Her answer was that before it never really mattered because, like every devil, I didn't train hard and had a lot of time to spare, so I never "needed" a time chamber. Also, if it got out that they did something like this right before the rating game it would be extremely clear favoritism, far worse than anything they've done before, which, in hindsight, fair. If I had asked before the game was mentioned or after, like I did, it would be fine.

"I believe that you've done well." She says. "What's your schedule after this?"

"I mean… I first thought about spending a lot of time here but… I don't really need to for now. It's a great place to rest and it will be really helpful in my normal daily life. But I don't really feel the need to spend months or years inside here in a row y'know?... That being said, I do want to spend some days here with my peerage right away. I want to see their training and strength for myself."

"Very well, do be careful to not overwork them or yourself. It's fine to train but you need to rest as well. Our next session will be about magic circles and the start of space magic."

Fuck yeah! It's still wild to think that one of my first types of magic that I'll be learning is how to teleport.

"I see your enthusiasm so I will just say it, it's not as impressive as you think it is"

… What does that mean?... I don't believe her, it's probably her bias for knowing magic all her life, there is no way that learning teleporting is "not impressive".

Anyway that is for later. We both leave my time mansion. I say goodbye to Grayfia and start looking for my peerage… Wait, I don't have to look for them.

I take my phone out and see that I have the signal and internet again. I send them a message on the group chat "Hey, everybody pack their things up for a vacation, like 7 to 10 days of days of things you'll need. Also Bring some books that you will want to read. Be it for fun or to study it. Bring your swimsuits, either personal ones or school ones if you don't have one."

It takes a while for them to see but they ask about school. I say to them that this is more important and we can deal with that later. I don't want to ruin the surprise. Since Gasper is still "sealed" I tell him to continue with his "training". I went to the library to get some of the books there in case we decide to not train some days. I have a whole closet of clothes inside the resort so I don't need to bring new ones.

(4 hours inside the time resort later)

We were all relaxing in the giant pool now. Issei was teaching Asia to swim while Akenko and I were just floating around. Kiba and Koneko were racing in the pool. He was technically faster but her powerful kicks in the water were disrupting the water enough to get in his way. The pool was giant so to our side it was just some pleasant waves.

When they first got here they did get impressed, not as much as I was, with the exception of issei who made a very exaggerated, but very welcomed scream "NO FUCKING WAY YOU GOT A HYPERBOLIT TIME CHAMBER", I knew I could count on her reaction, it was great.

After that, I showed them most of the resort. The most important ones at least, are the rooms that'll be staying, the kitchen, the pools, hot springs, baths, pools, training room, gaming room. The training room I'll show them when we start the training but today we decided to just laze around. I do need this more than them. It was absolutely worth it, but these 4 days were rough…

I saw Asia swimming on her own for a bit and Issei shedding a tear like a proud parent while looking at her. I decided that she was good enough for the Pool that was only deep enough to cover up to our breasts. We all played Volleyball for a while with a little bit of superpowers.

My team, composed of Asia, Akeno and myself, won… because Akeno kept sending minuscule bolts of lightning at them, enough to get in the way and distract them enough to not notice when I first touched the ball and left a little bit of my magic there, so I was able to make the ball lighter or heavier when I want by controlling the density of the magic around it. Kiba hadn't started his buff swords training thing that I suggested before so he couldn't do anything and being fast didn't help when I could make the ball go slower. Koneko as well hadn't started her senjutsu, and her strength got denied by me like with kiba's speed. Issei tried to boost the team but he got really distracted by our tits. Akeno said that it was a valid strategy.. and I realized that I don't really mind and it was a funny way to win, so we purposefully "jiggle" a little bit more when it was Issei's turn to receive or spike the ball.

Koneko kept glaring at my chest for a while after that.

"...They are stupid" She petulantly said.

…Hoh? I put my arms under them to push them up." Like you didn't loved using them as pillows last time."

"...Humpf" She turned away and left because we both know I'm right. She will end up "forgiving" me when I offer her cookies later.

We spent the rest of the day just playing around. It was fun and relaxing. Is not as if we were having a hard time in the mansion. But having a whole place for just us is a different feeling… the fact that it is a huge resort all for us helps a lot.

We all talked about what more or less I would like to get from this training.

When late night came, we all went to our respective rooms, with the exception of Akeno, who came to sleep with me.

( Day 1 of peerage training)

First was Koneko, we went to a separate training room so it would be only the two of us. We first want to see if she is able to use her youkai powers. She did try " releasing her energy", from my perspective it looked like she was trying to charge her ki like in dragon ball but far less stressful. But with my new sending powers I could feel her using her normal magic. It stayed like that for a while 'til I felt something different. It felt like… more "animalistic"? Maybe more natural? Not sure how to explain, it doesn't matter right now.

What matters is that SHE GOT CAT EARS! I knew that on paper she was a nekoshou, but seeing in person is another thing… damn I want to touch them… but I manage to restrain myself to not get in the way. Until she manages to control it enough to spar or to use it there is nothing that I could do. So I keep doing my own training.

It took some hours but she did end up getting it stable enough. So we did some physical exercises. I tried making my magic to " push me" towards the floor to simulate making myself heavy while using my red white mode. She also did her exercise but with her Senjutsu buffing her.

We started a little slow but little by little she did end up getting the hang of using Senjutsu. So did I with my "budget gravity" magic. Her concentration sometimes slipped and I could feel her Senjutsu going away some times. Each time we stopped and waited for her to get her powers going again. But each time it happened, I could feel her activating It faster than before.

When we were resting she did allow me to touch her ears and tails. They were great, extremely soft. I asked her to not mind us and just let them out whenever she was with us. She said that she didn't mind. I don't know how she felt but I'm guessing that me petting her helped her decision. At some point I could even hear her purring when I found a specific part of her tails and ears.

By the end of the day she could do Senjutsu at a simple level without worrying or panicking about going crazy.

(Day 2 of peerage training)

With Koneko with more control or her powers we could go and train in the same room with the others. I would guess that until she gets confident with them it would be good for her to know that people are around in case she needs help.

In this room she joined Issei and Asia in physical training while using senjutsu. Asia would just do her best to get more muscle normally and Issei would do it while boosted, sometimes the normal boosts, other times would be the fractional boosts to last longer. At this point she could now add fractions to her normal boosts.

Akeno and Kiba were going to spar like they did yesterday. She used a very weak holy lightning while Kiba was using "cursed lightning rod swords" to try and redirect the lightning. It sometimes worked somehow and other times it didn't. But he was still pretty fast so he was capable of evading the weak lightning even when Akeno had enough control of her weak lightning.

Today though, Kiba was going to start practicing "buff swords", that is, swords that make him stronger or faster, only those for now. Akeno was going to train her holy lightning like I did with my elements, like how to manipulate the size and density. Then learn how to use It as defense against other attacks. She might be good with their normal lighting, but it's better to test it before you do something different. But before that, I had something I needed her to do

"...what? She asked me.

"I want to know what it feels like."

She's staring at me like I just said something absurd, which is not. "... You want me" she points at herself. "To shoot you" she points at me " with holy lightning."

I nod.

She calmly gets close to me and puts her hand on my forehead, then puts her hand on my chin and keeps looking all over my face while squinting her eyes.

"I'm not sick." I'm not sure if devils can get, like, a cold or something similar.

"Probably not. When devils get sick is when there is some kind of different affliction, like the sleep disease. I would also guess that it is Exhaustion of you overworking yourself."

"I'll have you know, I did have a wonderful rest before calling you guys here." At the end of day 4 of training with Grayfia, she gave me a treatment like I was in a 5 star hotel and shit. Food, massage, bubble bath… which in hindsight is still weird "being bathed" but I'm putting this on her being weird. It was extremely nice, still weird.

She finally released my face and now is frowning and looking at me like I'm an idiot. Very rude. "Then what could possibly make you think that this is a good idea?"

"Because I will end up being hit by something holy at some point in my life. So it's better to have someone that I trust to do it, so when it happens in a real life situation I can, like, not flinch or even get downed by one attack."

And I learned fire magic by knowing how it feels by fighting Raiser. Why couldn't I do the same with holy/sacred magic?... At the very least I will get "used" to it.

She doesn't say anything for a few seconds. Mulling over my genius idea. Then she says "... I guess you have a point?"

Of course I do. "Yeah. Just let's start small ok? I'm not sure what being shocked feels like, much less shocked and burned by light at the same time."

Slowly she starts smiling. I'm not sure I like that.

(30 minutes later)

"Stop aiming at my fucked hand you bi!– OW! FUCK!" I threw back some small cursed destruction at her, also not enough to do some damage but enough to hurt.

"You asked me to help you get used to it! OW! HMM~! It's supposed to be you getting used to the pain!" She says as she throws more holy lightning at me while.. moaning? what the fuck?

I feel like she's enjoying this far more than she should and this annoys me.

"IT WOULD BE IF YOU WERE NOT AIMING AT MY HAND ON PURPOSE!"

"You said you wanted to get used to the pain? You said your gray hand is more resistant but more sensitive, so it makes sense to keep aiming at it!" She says this with a big smile and very red cheeks on her stupid face.

"Not now! I'm not even used to them normally! And don't try to sound like you're only doing this because it makes sense you fucking pervert!"

We keep doing this for the whole training. By the end of the day I could identify and understand "holy magic" and "holy lightning". Even got normal lightning magic as a bonus, this one will be easier to train and get it to use for myself.

Akeno now was no longer fearful or hateful of her own powers. I guess bullying me for the whole fucking day was usefull. Good. If she still was hesitating about this after today I would flip.

I was not really mad at her for doing what I asked her to do and she had way too much fun that she should have so we weren't really mad at each other. But she did make some brownies as a peace offering, they were delicious.

(Day 3 of peerage training)

Akeno was now training like what Koneko and I did before, controlling the density and size of the holy lightning. The other 3 continued like yesterday.

Now I am here to monitor Kiba. There wasn't much that I could do for him besides try to give him ideas. I slightly used my POD and cursed POD on him for him to get an idea of how it feels like. He didn't "get it". Either he doesn't learn like I do or bloodline magic is a little bit more complicated to understand.

But since he already understood how a buff feels because of Isse, he did manage to make some swords that could buff. Like one that if he was using it, he would get a little bit faster and stronger than normal. That was great.

I gave him the idea of making smaller swords, like really small. That way he could use a bracelet around his wrist and create many smaller buff swords at the same time so that he could do different buffs at the same time a bit like Issei does.

He liked that idea but first he has to learn how to make and keep swords with the buffs up at the same time.

At the end of the day he did manage to keep 3 swords at the same time. One at his hips and the other 2 on his hands, all of them giving him buffs. Not the tiny ones that I wanted but for now it was enough.

(Day 5 of peerage training)

Since Asia's thing was healing there are limited things that she can do. The first part of what I wanted her to do was to learn basic things like how to throw a punch. So we did that with her attacking a punching bag. When it started to hurt a little she healed herself. This kept repeating until I felt like she could at least do an "average human good enough punch".

The second part of her training was to just heal a lot. So I start to try to feel, manipulate and create holy magic. It was really fucking painfull and I was to much of a wuss to not do it if I was not on Red White mode and with Asia healing when she saw that I was in pain. It really did help the "burn".

She was upset at first for me hurting myself constantly but I convinced her that it was better here than in combat. Also I would do this anyway so having her with me would be far better than for me to do this without her.

By the end of the day I can admit that I almost didn't progress anything with holy energy. I guess that there are different people that have their own "affinities" and I'm not good with it… or it's just the fact of me being a devil. Anyway it's stupid but I wasn't willing to give up… but it's better to do it with Asia around.

Oh and she did end up getting better at healing holy energy a little bit.

(day 6 of peerage training)

I brought Issei to a different training room than the others. Alright… this is going to be embarrassing.

"Well Issei… we're going to train your dress break.. on me"

"For real?!"

…I'm not sure I like how excited she looks in wanting to magically undress me, but better that than apathy I guess.

Since I don't know how to "enchant" things and I'm not willing to just ask for hundreds of enchanted clothing or objects with the intent to destroy them, no matter how rich my family is, a few days— no, wait, it was just some hours ago outside, I asked the maids in the house, my parents and my sisters if they had any clothes or other kinds of shit that they wanted to get rid of that I would destroy. Turns out, there was a lot. There is now a big pile of clothes, towels and other random pieces of fabric.

I'm not gonna bother to wear them so when I ask Issei to turn around and I take my clothes and underwear off I just get a random piece of fabric from the pile around my body to cover me enough. If it's tiny I just use 2.

So in the end I use my power to actually cover my breast and lower part like fake magic underwear, which I'm calling "layer 1", then comes any random cloth from the pile, the "layer 2", then add another third layer of my power again. This way we have different layers so that we can train the power and the precision of the spell.

"Okay Issei," I said to her. " Back in the video I saw you touching Riser's peerage and then when you were kind of away from them you activated it. So is there a timer and you decide to snap your finger at the exact point or you can do it whenever you want?"

"Um.. as long as I manage to touch them, then I feel like I can choose when to activate it or if I want to cancel it."

"Do it to me but don't activate it yet."

She hesitates for a second but, with her cheeks going red and trying to fight a smile, she touches me and I not only see the tiny magic circle where she touched me, but I can feel it. It's purely devil magic… Well, this is really her using her desires and willpower to see people naked so it makes sense that it is using devil magic. "Ok, do it"

She flicked her finger and the next second, all the layers got destroyed immediately and I was completely naked "The fuck?!".

I hear Issei celebrating while I immediately cover myself with my hands. It was in a fucking instant! I forcefully change to yellow white mode and use my power to cover myself again.

I'm not sure I can even understand what happened. I saw the circle, I felt the magic but I don't know how it did what it did. Fuck I'm not magically apt enough yet to get what the fuck did this perverted magic do. For a second I panicked because when she activated I felt like some kind of beast was going to attack me. But then only my clothes… and my own magic was the aim. This doesn't make any sense.

The only thing that I got is the "impact". Like, even if I knew it was coming, it actually came out of "nowhere" and this speed was a big factor in the damage. Like, if I felt like I was expecting a punch from someone with the same speed as I.. then in the next second I was rammed by a construction wrecking ball.

I guess this is the desire/willpower of a dragon? Or maybe this is just the power of a pervert with access to devil magic… or both. Damn, I know that I have my own "rage mode", but Issei has "willpower". If it was in DC comics he would be Green and I would have a red lantern ring… damn I want one of those. I'll put on a list of the things I want to do in other universes when I get dimension traveling.

Right. I can think of this latter, now is training and testing time. I grab something from the pile again and add the cloth layer and the other magic layer in my "outfit".

"Again" I say.

She activates it, I see the magic circle again but this time I use my destruction magic to remove the vestiges of her magic in my body. "Can you activate it?"

"Well no" She says as she flicks her fingers "I felt you undoing the dress break".

Oh? It's good that she feels the magic and not just hopes that it works.

"Alright we're doing this until one of us can completely overpower the other with magic."

I can almost see fire in her eyes "You can count on me! I will not disappoint you!"

…. Normally this would be just a person saying they are going to do their best. But with the context and her red cheeks, she just literally said that she was absolutely striping me… to my own face. "... We'll see about that"

Hours later we were still training the dress break. It was supposed to be only for a part of the day so that later we could train with the boosts, but it ended up with us in a competition against each other.

It started with training her control of just breaking two layers instead of everything. Then only breaking a specific layer. I started to understand a little bit more, in a general sense, just about being able to put more magic into the layers so that sometimes she wasn't able to break. But then she ended up somehow putting more power into the spell and was able to bypass it again for many tries. Then after many times being stripped and eventually emptying the cloth pile (so I had to use different types of magic as substitute), I got the hang of her magic again and was able to stop her for many tries, until she got better again.

This loop kept going until the day ended. It was a very strange way of training our magic control, especially hers. Very stupid, but extremely effective in her case.

AN: Hey. It took longer than I wanted, because of procrastination, but I managed to do it! This was the hardest chapter as of now (I know that it's only chapter 5, but still). I didn't know if it was better to have 2 different chapters, 1 for Rias only and the other for the peerage training but I wanted the next chapter to be something else that was not training.

I've noticed that this one had far more ecchi than the other chapters together. I'm not apologizing, just making an observation.

Also this chapter one had a lot of yapping about magic training. I'm not sure if it was too much or just enough. This is about Rias learning magic in what I think is how the world works and I wanted to show her thought process and magic working in a way that makes sense.

Sometimes I will just use the cannon but sometimes I will just add my own things. Like with Issei's dress break and his magic element that, in my head, it makes sense is devil magic a little bit of dragon magic (unconsciously) or is just devil magic but his desires are being boosted because he is a dragon(kind of).

Also that part at the start of (ɾԃσυ ყԋαʂʂ ago) was (hours days ago), but I still wanted it to be a surprise.

Next chapter: I'm having something important going on in real life so I probably won't post it until december. I'm still not sure about making these long chapters or making smaller ones because this one was wild to write.

It is still going to have Rias learn the basics of magic circles and learn to teleport but it will only be a small part of the chapter (I hope). Also it will have a brief recounting of the other days of the peerage training.

EXTRA NOTE: I've updated the chapters because I was re-reading them and there were some things that i've wanted to change. The QQ that i've uploade were alredy the updated ones but here on FF was still the old versions.

not anything story important just some minor things like gramatical errors and things that I found a different (better) way to say. Also this chapter was updated. For those who alredy read this, i've changed from the sona meeting to be on the same day as the peerage training (on the outside) and changed to "tomorrow".
