"Alright, Akeno, that's enough instigating." "Rias, I need your help. Could you take care of Asia's paperwork and enrollment? It would be best if she could join the Occult Research Club. Of course, I won't let your efforts be in vain. Consider this a favor owed, and I promise to repay you handsomely in the near future." I looked at Rias earnestly, making my request. "Well, if you put it that way, and considering we're friends, how can I refuse?" Rias rolled her eyes playfully but agreed. I knew she was a little upset. After all, she had missed out on two highly qualified individuals. Anyone would feel a bit put out in her position, so I didn't take it personally. "Alright, I'm going to leave Asia-chan in your care for now. I have some other business to attend to." After chatting with Rias, Akeno, and the others for a while, and seeing that Asia-chan and Koneko were getting along well, I excused myself. Seeing how eager Rias was to recruit Asia, I figured it was related to her engagement. It seemed like the "turkey" was about to make his appearance, and the Three-Faction Peace Conference wasn't far off. I needed to hurry up and get stronger. ... So, after leaving the Occult Research Club, I headed straight for the Student Council room. When I arrived, I found that all the Student Council members were present. And, well... they were all beautiful girls. Tsubaki Shinra, Tomoe Meguri, Tsubasa Yura, Momo Hanakai, Ruruko Nimura, and Reya Kusaka. Each one of them a stunning beauty! It really hit home that the DxD world was full of gorgeous women. "Hibari-san? What a surprise! I thought you'd only come if I personally invited you." Sona looked up and saw me, a hint of mock-resentment in her eyes behind her glasses. I had repeatedly ignored her previous invitations, after all. "Well, Sona-kaichou, I apologize for always turning you down before!" Seeing Sona's expression, like a neglected wife, made my scalp tingle, so I quickly apologized. "Hibari-san." Reya, Yura, and Tomoe were surprised to see me but also delighted. "No need for introductions, Tsubaki, Reya, Meguri, and Yura. You all already know each other," Sona said, glancing at the excited Tomoe and the blushing Reya, shaking her head slightly. "Kyoya-kun~" Just then, Tomoe quickly approached me, looking up at me with admiration. My decisive victory over her and Kiba had left a deep impression. Yura greeted me with a cheerful and straightforward "Hello!" Yura, a second-year student, was skilled in martial arts. Although her peerage role was also a Rook, like Koneko, her personality was the complete opposite of Koneko's quiet demeanor. It was a shame that she was a bit lacking in the chest department. "This is Ruruko Nimura, she's in the same class as Koneko, And this is Momo Hanakai, a Bishop." Sona then introduced a petite girl with twin brown ponytails and a girl with long, flowing white hair, smiling gently. "Hello, Hibari-senpai," Ruruko and Momo greeted me shyly, their voices soft and sweet. "Hello, Nimura-san, Hanakai-san." I looked at them appreciatively. They both had great figures, much more developed than Koneko's, and their figures were quite alluring. Ruruko had a slender build, while Momo was more voluptuous. After introducing Ruruko, Sona stopped. She had introduced all her peerage members to me. Whether they could get along was now up to them. After admiring the girls, I decided to get straight to the point and explain my reason for coming, challenging Tsubaki to complete the system task. "Sona-kaichou, I'm actually here to fulfill our agreement. We agreed that if you defeated me, I would become your peerage member. So, I'm here today to honor that agreement." My words stunned everyone present. They were rendered speechless by my actions, finding my behavior a little hard to fathom. However, a few of them were quite enthusiastic, like Tsubaki, who was now practically itching for a fight, staring at me with eagerness. Even Yura was getting excited, egging us on. "That's awesome! Hibari-san! Kaichou, you see how eager Tsubaki is, too. Just agree to it!" ... "I get that you like wild guys, Yura, but could you be a little less obvious about it? Aren't you afraid of scaring Hibari-san off?" Seeing Yura's reaction, Sona had a bit of a headache. "Eh? Did I scare you off, Hibari-san?" Hearing Sona's words, Yura finally seemed to realize her behavior and looked at me with some concern. "Of course not. In fact, I really appreciate Yura-san's forthright personality," I assured her. "Hehe, I knew Hibari-san and I were a perfect match!" Hearing my response, Yura grinned. ... Everyone else looked at the two of them with odd expressions. But Sona, after thinking it over, agreed to my request. It would satisfy Tsubaki's desire for a fight, and if Tsubaki won, she would gain a powerful new peerage member. It was a win-win situation. "Alright, I accept." Just as we were about to start the fight, the system suddenly issued new tasks. [Ding! Discovered target character: Momo Hanakai; Task Grade: White; Task Condition: Defeat her.] [Ding! Discovered target character: Ruruko Nimura; Task Grade: White; Task Condition: Defeat her.] Hearing the system's notifications, I looked at the two girls. "Hibari-san, what's wrong? Why are you looking at Momo and Ruruko?" Noticing my gaze, Sona asked, confused. Hearing their president, the two girls couldn't help but blush, fantasizing about what I might be thinking. "Actually, the three of you can come at me together. Although it might seem a bit much, I'm quite strong!" I smiled after thinking for a moment. "Oh, it seems Hibari-san is very confident, Momo, Ruruko, Tsubaki, you three can fight together." Hearing my words, Sona's glasses glinted. She was even more curious to see just how strong I was. "Then, let's begin!" My eyes flashed, and I announced the start of the battle. ..... ~ 17 Advanced Chapters Now Available on Patreon! https://p-atreon.com/dragonnx (Just remove the hyphen to access Patreon normally.)
