Chapter 9: Chapter 9
"Do you want to beat him yourself? Or do you want me to beat him for you?" I gave her two options. "Either I set up a Rating Game with him in the next month and destroy him to the point that his regeneration is negated, or I train you to get stronger. Which do you want?" I asked calmly.
Rias looked thoughtful for a moment before I continued, "Personally, I think you should ask Sirzechs to let me play a Rating Game against Riser. He won't agree if I was the one asking him."
Instead of answering impulsively, Rias discussed the scenario with me first, "I estimate that I have about six months before he starts pressuring my brother. Then Sirzechs will be able to hold off for about three more months. Can you train me in nine months?" She asked, not confident in herself, but clearly wanting to beat him on her own terms.
"Nine months can create a human life; this is nothing. I'll train you to the point that you'll be able to destroy him," I said confidently. "And if not, I'll just tell him to fight me instead."
"Really?! Thank you so much!" She jumped up with an ecstatic expression and hugged me tightly, burying her face in my neck. I naturally wrapped my arms around her waist with a light smile.
I'm not dense enough to miss an open invitation like this from Rias. According to my system, Rias has a little crush on me. Well, it's not just Rias; many women in the underworld have a crush on me.
It's true that I'm not particularly fond of the whole harem setting, but if a woman throws herself at you, it would be a sin to avoid that. And I'm not a dense idiot. Sona and Serafall know this. While Serafall insists that I get a harem, Sona tells me not to.
"You know, Rias, we just met today. Don't you think you are too close to me? Not that I mind this closeness," I teased, my voice light.
Rias blushed but didn't pull away. Instead, she tightened her grip slightly and looked up at me with a determined expression. "I don't care. You're offering to help me, and that means a lot. Plus, I've heard about you from Sona. You're someone I can trust."
I smirked. "Good to know I have a reputation."
She chuckled softly. "A good one, I promise."
I doubt that.

I went to the classroom and waited in front of the door for the teacher to come.
After a while, the teacher came and the lesson started.
"Hello students, a new student is joining our class today. Alastor- kun."
I entered the classroom.
"Hello. My name is Alastor Lucifuge. Nice to meet you. You can call me Alastor. I hope we get along well."
Yes, My cover surname is Lucifuge in this school actually The suname I give for admission was Leviathan but for some reason it change to Lucifuge.
I am not going to explain how it changed.
"You can move to an empty desk, Alastor-kun." Teacher said.
I did as the teacher said and went to an empty desk in the classroom. I was in the same class with Rias, Akeno, Sona and Tsubaki.
Because why not.
I was getting skeptical looks from Sona throughout the class.
Tsubaki wad listening to the lecture with their usual seriousness. Akeno was looking at me with interest. Rias would occasionally looked at me.
The lesson continued as normal and finally ended.
"Ara ara- Alastor-kun so we're in the same class." Akeno said.
I like way she said that, Not going to lie.
"It looks like that, Akeno."
"I am happy to be same class as you." Akeno said.
Then Akeno, Rias, Sona and Tsubaki left the classroom.
My school life looks like it will be fun. I also have to do a test tonight.
After that, the lessons continued. And it's time to leave school. And I learned that right now I was 1 week before the main story started.
After school, I came back to the ORC. It was night before I even realized it. It was time to put my plan into action.
I left my house quietly and set out for Issei's place. If anyone asks where I got the information, well, I have a system that is same level as Wisdom king raphael, but my system don't have a consciousness. I don't know if it can change If I name my system.
But regretfully I don't have enough mana to name my system, but in the future, I would name her.
Finally, I found Issei's house and sneaked into his room through the window. It felt weird to do this to a guy.
It would be better if I entered a girl's room this way, but here I was. Fate really work in different ways.
Issei lay on the bed as if he had fallen from a high place. I moved quietly, making sure not to wake him.
"Extract boosted gear from Issei."
[Confirm that you want to receive Longinus [Boosted Gear] from target?]
"I confirm."
A black smoke left my hands, encircling Issei's body. Moments later, they returned to me, bringing with them the Boosted Gear. A system message appeared before my eyes.
[[Boosted Gear] successfully acquired.]
[[Boosted Gear] has fused with your soul and is now attached to your body.]
