Reincarnated into a Multiverse, but High School DxD

Standing before Ren was a young woman in a maid outfit, with decorative little devil wings on her back.

She was holding out a flyer to Ren.

Chapter 54: Summoning a Devil

Chapter 54

Ren glanced at it. With his sharp eyes, he quickly discerned her measurements... ahem, her true nature.

There was a faint trace of demonic power on the woman, extremely weak.

He had seen quite a few low-ranking devils. Most stray devils were like this.

But the girl before him possessed even less demonic power than a stray devil. At most, she was an incarnation of a familiar.

"Please support us!"

The familiar being scrutinized by Ren suddenly grew a little frightened. After handing over the flyer, she immediately jogged into the crowd. She had probably memorized Ren's appearance and decided to finish handing out the flyers before reporting this to her master.

Case solved.

It was not that Rias had failed to set up a barrier around Kuoh Town; she had simply used familiars as her eyes and ears.

Still, he seriously doubted whether just a few familiars could keep watch over the whole place.

No wonder such a small town as Kuoh Town was constantly being invaded by all kinds of other races.

Fallen angels today, exorcists tomorrow—the entire territory was like a sieve.

Without dwelling on it, Ren looked at the flyer in his hand.

The design was simple. A complicated magic circle was printed on it, along with the words, "Make your wish come true."

Ren remembered that devils needed to make contracts with humans and conduct transactions.

The original male protagonist had survived because a familiar handed him a flyer for summoning devils on the street. After summoning Rias, he had been turned into a devil and lived on.

Ren immediately wanted to give it a try.

But before he could do anything, he suddenly remembered that Rias and Akeno Himejima needed to attend Kuoh Academy during the day.

So even if he used it, they might not be able to answer the summons. Or perhaps another devil would be summoned instead.

With that in mind, Ren could only tuck the flyer into his pocket and continue scrolling through his phone.

About two hours later, Ren received a message from Lavinia. They had finished shopping and were ready to head back.

After meeting up, they drove back once more.

On the way, Lavinia showed Ren the flyers they had received as well.

"Although the demonic reaction is quite weak, the magic circle on the flyer is genuine. As long as the user's desire is strong enough, the magic circle will activate. Even ordinary people can use it."

"No rush. We'll talk about it tonight. We've been in the car all day, so let's go back and rest first."

After returning to the house, the first floor had already been cleaned by the three fallen angels until it shone like new.

With their lives on the line, even if these fallen angels had their own ulterior motives, they were at least working hard to stay alive.

By evening, Raynare and the other two had finally finished cleaning every room.

When Ren called them over to eat at the table, the gesture immediately left the three of them flattered and overwhelmed. The frustration and irritation in their hearts did not entirely vanish, but at the very least, their resentment was wiped clean.

After all, at Grigori, they had never been treated like people. They had been worked like beasts until they dropped.

Compared to that, although Ren had nearly killed them all and used curses to threaten them into working, he was willing to let them eat at the table.

He was practically treating them as his own people.

Kalawarner began to cry as she ate, while Mittelt was delighted. Raynare looked speechlessly at her two companions.

You were bought off by such a tiny kindness?

Still, the food really was delicious!

After eating and drinking their fill, the trio was sent by Ren to wash the dishes. This time, they had no complaints and worked very diligently.

Ren, meanwhile, went to the spacious living room, took out the flyer, and prepared to summon a devil.

At the same time.

The abandoned church on the back mountain finally received its second group of visitors.

"How is it?"

Two figures stood in the open space before the church, both wearing Kuoh Academy girls' uniforms.

The dusk light was rather dim, but one could still vaguely make out the deep crimson hair cascading down from one girl's head.

Her waist-length red hair drifted through the air, swaying elegantly in the breeze and making the surrounding scenery seem more vivid along with it.

It complemented her snow-white skin perfectly.

Beside her stood another girl of similar age and height, her delicate face wearing a gentle expression.

They were, unmistakably, the rulers of Kuoh Town.

Rias Gremory and her peerage member, Akeno Himejima.

At that moment, Rias looked at her peerage members who had just emerged from the church basement.

They were also wearing school uniforms. One was a young blond boy, while the other had short silver-white hair and a petite build. Rather than a high school student, she looked more like an elementary school student.

The former was named Kiba Yuuto, while the latter bore the codename Koneko.

"There was no one in the basement, but there was a cross and many unknown markings. There were also quite a few other tools nearby. It looked like the site of some ritual, but it had not been carried out before the stray exorcists and fallen angels gathered here were killed."

Kiba Yuuto reported.

"Looks like someone acted before we did. Revenge? Or internal conflict?"

Akeno Himejima lowered her head and looked at the human corpses on the ground.

When her gaze swept over Dohnaseek, clear disgust and satisfaction appeared in her eyes.

"There's too little evidence, but it could also have been the Church."

Rias looked at the bullet hole in the corpse's forehead.

"Among the three major factions, only the Church's exorcists make widespread use of modern firearms. Also, after the familiar returned today, it reported spotting a very strange person in the city center. It couldn't sense any demonic power from him, but it felt an intense sense of danger."

Familiars differed from devils. Most of them were essentially beasts from the Underworld, merely somewhat more intelligent than animals in the human world.

As a result, their perception of danger was even sharper than that of devils.

"Perhaps only by finding him can we uncover the truth."

Rias frowned as she looked at the corpses.

She had discovered the fallen angels at the church long ago. But the church was, after all, religious territory. Even though it was abandoned, it was not a place devils could casually meddle with.

Damaging a church recklessly could easily invite retaliation from assassins.

For the past few days, she had been secretly investigating the fallen angels' purpose to determine her next move. Yet before she could uncover the truth, someone had wiped out the fallen angels' nest in one fell swoop.

Ever since taking over Kuoh Town, nothing like this had happened before, so Rias was being extremely cautious.

"President, what should we do next?"

Koneko asked.

She wore a pair of gauntlets, but unfortunately, she had not had the chance to use them today.

"Let's dispose of the bodies here and return. As for the person mentioned by the familiar, keep investigating him. But it's too late today, so tomorrow we'll—"

At that moment, Rias suddenly stopped.

After a moment, she turned to Akeno Himejima beside her and said, "There's a new client, and they specifically requested you, Akeno."

Chapter 55: Throwing a Party in the Middle of the Night?

Chapter 55

"A specific request?"

Akeno Himejima was startled for a moment.

"Do we know who it is?"

"No, but judging from the flyer's response, this client is a newcomer. And they seem to be a newcomer who knows us very well."

It was not unusual to use flyers to specifically summon certain devils. Rias and her peerage often received requests from acquaintances.

Most wanted wealth or power.

But this request was strange.

A newcomer should not know their names.

"President, I smell a conspiracy."

Koneko suddenly said.

"It is rather suspicious, especially combined with the familiar's report today..."

Rias folded her arms and fell into thought, seemingly weighing her options.

"President, since they specifically summoned me, I'll go take a look."

A faint smile appeared on Akeno Himejima's face.

"Perhaps I can gather some information."

"Alright... no, the situation is too unclear right now. If the enemy deliberately set a trap, it would be too dangerous for you to go alone."

Rias nodded at first, then abruptly shook her head.

"We'll go together. Even if they have an ambush prepared, there'll be no need to worry too much."

"Very well."

Akeno Himejima knew that she could not argue with Rias over something like this.

Although doing so violated the rules, it was understandable under the circumstances.

Of course, Akeno Himejima did not believe that anyone could do anything to her even if she went alone.

After Rias and the others dealt with the bodies in the church, they activated a teleportation magic circle.

A red light enveloped the four of them, and they vanished in an instant.

When they reappeared, Rias and the others were already standing in what looked like a perfectly ordinary living room.

The teleportation ended.

Rias immediately surveyed her surroundings. Kiba Yuuto, the Knight of her peerage, and Koneko, the Rook, gathered their demonic power as they observed the room and vigilantly watched their surroundings, guarding against a possible sudden attack.

Akeno Himejima narrowed her eyes and saw several people waiting in the living room.

There were rather more than she had expected.

After quickly counting them, she found six strangers in the living room—two more than their own group.

What was this supposed to be?

Gathering together in the middle of the night to throw a party and summon devils? Were they looking for some fun?

And why did the aura around some of these people feel so strange?

While Rias observed the unfamiliar clients, Ren was also looking over Rias and her group.

Having watched the anime, these characters were familiar strangers to him.

The blond man in a school uniform was probably Kiba Yuuto. There was nothing worth paying attention to.

The other three, however, were rare beauties.

The most eye-catching of them all was Rias, with her brilliant red hair like blazing flames. It formed a striking contrast with her fair skin.

Her exquisite features were flawless, while her outrageously voluptuous figure stretched her school uniform taut. Especially those Mount Fujis on her chest—both their curves and size were utterly without flaw.
