*Beep* *Beep*
"Status?"A Deep voice sounded from a Man sitting in a Shiny Sofa.
The man was wearing a Black suit, wearing a White mask of a Face without any features in them.
The voice was transmitted on a screen somewhere else, showing a Featureless man on a Giant screen.
"Sir! Currently we are receiving the new batch of Test subjects to start up Project A.U.G. once again as well as the new project, N.E.B.U.L.A that you have requested sir." A man wearing a Glass, that has a Messy hair voiced as he looked towards the featureless man at the Screen with reverence in his eyes.
"Hoooh....Make sure that the Incident regarding Batta Aug-01 never happen again...Make sure that's the only mistake you'll ever do, or I don't mind replacing you with more capable men..."The man Voiced.
"Ha!..We will make sure to Implement a 2 fold Control on the latest batch of successful A.U.G's"The Bespectacled Man replied.
"Good....For now, Focus on Batta Aug-02, and afterwards... Continue Cho-1.."The man said, his voice becoming deeper as he said the last words.
Hearing the Man's order, the scientist had his eyes wide open, and exclaimed.
"But sir! The specimen is not yet stabilized we need more data, other than the Data we have from Batta Aug-01 and the Data we will get from Batta Aug-02, I dont think it is enough to complete Cho-1"
"...."The man on the screen became quiet.
And realizing his mistake the scientist gulped before he bowed"I apologize for my Behavior... I'll be sure to Finish the task you have given me mo matter what.."
".....Last chance....If Cho-1 is not complete by the end of the second year, despite the data and tools you have, then I think it's time to find a replacement"The man stated deeply.
"Ha! I will do my utmost best.."The scientist muttered solemnly.
Then the Sceeen shut down.
While the scientist still bowed and only stopped a few minutes later.
After he Stopped bowing, the scientist hurriedly walked out of the room and passed by a corridor with metal Doors.
Afterwards he entered a Room, that looked like a Surgery Room, but with lots and lots more machine.
The room are full of people wearing a white lab coat, doing different tasks.
Some, Looking through a Microscope,others Mixing something and some are watching a Video, a recording of the previous attempts at the project A.U.G', Specifically they were watching the Video of the first successful A.U.G; Batta Aug-01.
*Kahum!* The Man with the glasses Coughed to get all their attention and it worked, as they all stopped and looked towards him with questioning gazes.
Seeing that all of them are now paying attention to him, he Commended.
"The higher up, had given their word, Let us commence the second batch of project A.U.G and Begin the Project NEBULA, Though Project A.U.G must be the Focus."
Hearing the man's command the scientist all said "HA!" Before they wanted to walk, but the man stopped them.
"Stop! Im not finished yet!"He shouted and the scientist once again looked at him.
Seeing them stopped, The man sighed deeply before saying "After Re-creating and Perfecting the Previous A.U.G's, the Higher-up has commanded to Continue Cho-01" He said solemnly with a deep voice.
"We only have 2 years staring from now! or else the higher-ups would replace us...So make sure to do your best! UNDERSTOOD!?!"At the end the man exclaimed.
""HA!""The scientist replied loudly before they all started to work.
seeing the scientist actions the man nodded before taking out a walkie Talkie and muttered. "Bring The Subjects in.."

\\????? P.O.V\\ Third Person P.O.V\\
"Oi! Riku! Wake up.."A man who seemed to be in his early twenties shook another young man In his early twenties.
The man has a slightly long dark orange hair and wore a black long sleeve shirt, while the one he is waking up also has slightly long hair but instead of having an orange tint in his hair, he has normal black hair.
These two are Brothers, One of them, a retired Boxer while the other is a basketball player, both pretty athletic.
One day, the oldest of the two received a call, from a friend of his, introducing a person that will give him a Job, and that the person wanted to meet him in the afternoon .
The oldest, being happy since he haven't found a stable job for a long time, agreed with a single beat, and to celebrate, asked his brother to accompany him to meet the person and afterwards eat outside.
and of course, seeing his older brother finally getting a job, happily agreed so the two went towards the address.
And upon arriving at that place, they did meet the person who did not mind the tag-along which was his brother.
The three had a friendly talk about the job responsibilities and such, but suddenly the two got dizzy, and their world started spinning.
The last thing they saw was the man calling someone, before they passed out.
and then this brings us to this, scene.
The oldest waking up and upon noticing the strange place they were in that looked like a cell hurriedly woke up his younger brother who was still passed out besides him.
"Oi...Riku!"The oldest once again shook and called out his younger brothers name, and this time it worked since his younger brothers eyes twitched before opening, slowly registering the environment he woke up upon.
"Huh?...Banjo??.."The younger brother, Riku muttered lowly as his brain processed what happened.
and it didn't take long before he remembered the last scene he saw, how, they were talking to the person who wanted to hire his older brother.
"Banjo?!"He exclaimed as he hurriedly stood up and looked around before settling his eyes towards his older brother.
"fwooh...Where are we?"He asked, confused about the location they are currently in.
Hearing his brother's question the oldest, Banjo ryuga replied "I dont know myself, but there is one thing I can say.... We've been tricked and most likely kidnapped"
Hearing his older brother's words Riku was about to reply when the door to the room, or cell opened and people wearing a strange mask restrained them.
"What the?!..OI! LET GO!"Banjo exclaimed as he struggled to free himself from the people.
His younger brother Riku was also struggling, which bothered the men restraining them, so they took out a taser and used it on the Brothers which made them stop struggling.
The men hurriedly pulled the two outside, and the two brothers despite not being able to control their body, saw that there are also others that we're being dragged just like them.
the two last vision of each other is being separated before the two passed out, just like the others who were dragged.

//Gabriel P.O.V// First person view//
*BEEP!* *BEEEP**BEEP!* *BEEEP* *click*
"Yawnn.."I yawned lazily after turning off the alarm which woke me up.
"Good morning Cheemz!"I greeted my dog who also got woken up by the alarm, before I stood up and went to the bathroom.
It's my eleventh day in the world and
it has been five days since I contracted with Hie, and it all has been pretty normal, well aside from yet another quest that I completed which ended up unlocking a pretty neat function, Well, not really unlocking, more like Upgrading?
antways, that thing is precisely GACHA! The hell and haven of people, and what quest is it that I completed? well..
________________________________________________________________________________________
[Hidden Quest:First Impression]
Info:You know what they say! First Impression last for a lifetime! And of course! Being a Kamen Rider means having a good reputation! especially if you want to be a neutral entity in the world's supernatural politics.
So why not just make all of them your friends rather than enemies?
and of course! a good first impression is Important if u want to be on good terms with someone, much less to factions.
Quest Objective:Make a Good Impression on one or more of the Biblical Faction leader.(3/3)
Reward:
*System Function Upgrade.
Status:Complete
Reward Received: [Blueprint Gacha].
________________________________________________________________________________________
Humu! the reward actually aint that great, It basically just refine the Random Blueprint Function that I can get everytime I combine Blueprint Shards.
The way how the Gacha works is through 2 methods!
1.Daily Gacha
2.Bluprint Tokens
Daily Gacha, just like any normal Gacha basically lets you draw for free daily!
Though, Only for the General banner.
Did I mention that the gacha has banners?
Yup! This one has banners!
them being the General, and World specific banners!
General is basically just the mix of all the banners, Its cheap only Costing one Bronze Blueprint Token but the drop rates, ain't that great.
Common drops Includes Blueprint Shards, Yes, They weren't actually removed, and it still works the same as before, The higher tier the blueprint that you want, the more blueprint shards are needed!
Common Blueprints needing 100 shards, Uncommon needs 250, Rare 500, Epic 1k, Legends 5K, and Mythical 10K. and thats only for one time blueprints. Permanent are worth 20X more than that.
thats basically it for the normal Drops on the General Banner.
Uncommon drops being Blueprints for Items like Riot's Gears from Faiz, Though they are Individual Blueprint and not the whole set, because each Whole set of blueprint has a higher ranked rarity!
Example is once again the Riot Gears..
The whole set of blueprints for them are at Rare, not uncommon.
Or the faiz gear, which the blueprint set is at Legend, while each individual gears like Faiz Shot, Faiz Pointer, Faiz Phone and Belt are at epic.
Of course the Set only Includes the Standard faiz Items, Faiz Accel gear and Faiz Blaster Gears are not Included!
But! Sadly, the blueprints I can draw on the general banner are all One-time, which means if it fails then Bye-bye.
Though its a different matter when it comes to the second banner!
The World Specific Banner.
Where every 3 days, a Banner of any random Kamen Rider world appears In the Gacha section randomly and It needs a Silver Token to draw once.
Which the method to obtain, is only through quest and drawing them from the general banner which is at Rare ranked.
There is also the Gold token, which can be used at the world specific banner, which opens a sub-banner where you can draw blueprint set of any Kamen Rider from the current World Banner, Including all the Power-up's, Example of it is the Faiz gear.
If I draw the Set for Faiz gear then all of the gears, even the accel and Blaster gears Included will be owned by me permanently.
And as for the obtainment method, of what Ive read, Its only through visiting worlds and completing the main quest that you get one of them.
and of course! along with the Gacha, the Quest rewards also changed! Now instead of Blueprint fragments, the basic rewards each quest are Bronze Tokens and Silver tokens if the quest is hard enough.
Did I mention that the quest added a sub-classification? from F to SSS the higher the ranked of the quest, the higher the rewards.
an example is that of a main quest! like if a main quest is from a world like, lets just say a Zombie infested world, the main quest would most likely either be to eradicate the Zombies or make a cure.
which is quite easy if you have a power capable of causing mass destruction like Kuuga's whos each Kicks could potentially destroy a country.
The difficulty depends on my abilities actually.
like once again, the zombie main quest, which can be finished easily If I have the time mazin or any Form that can cause mass destruction will be somewhere at D or C.
and if I dont have any of the two, then the difficulty will be at A.
Simple as that.
anyhow, Its been exactly 3 days since I have gotten the gacha, and each draw only got me Blueprint fragments so far, I got exactly 25 chips from the daily gacha, and adding the previous 45 that I got from the daily exercise quest, I now have a grand total of 70 Blueprint Shards!
The school life has been doing good! After word got out of my amazing performance in each of my jobs, the word spread and a lot of people have been trying to hire me.
Although to be honest, I think it's because of who was the one that asked for my service the day after I contracted Hei.
*Sigh*It was Akeno..I mean, Im not upset that she asked for my service, Its just that the guys have been looking at me as if I just murdered their family.
I don't care about that though, Its just troublesome and all that.
Heck! all my customer these past three days are mostly guys that just wanted to employ me to stop the girls from employing me.
Of course I declined some but I mostly accepted it because its basically free money.
They actually dont want me to do anything, they just booked my service to stope the girls from employing me.
Of course I always decline it if the people who are asking for my service are my regulars, Like Ange who I don't actually ask for money since she always treats me every time, but she pays either way.
then, there are those like Issei and his friends who asked for my services, like guarding them when they peep...
Of course I dont accept them, because the girls also Hires me to keep an eye on the three.
Ive also run into the Student council frequently, mostly because of the three perverts, and heck the student council even wanted me to join them but I declined.
since I wanted to remain Neutral in this world, some biases might arise there and then in the future but, meh...I can do what I like since I don't really wanna stay in this world.
I am merely passing through, that is why I dont wanna have lingering attachments, which is Kinda not happening now..
Cuzz im pretty attatched to a few person, namely Ange,Aika and even Issei albeit only a little.
Issei and his friends aint really that bad, Its just their uncontrolled pervertness that makes them pretty dislikable.
I'm planning on fixing the three, If it wont work, then I can only punish them, until it will...Mind control is at the table too...but its the last resort.
Honestly I am starting to enjoy it here, but I know I cant stay...Maybe visit sure, but staying is out of the question, Nadda, Impossible.
I still wanna meet my Best friend and Parents, wherever they are.
Anywho...Lets get ready for today!
After that little session of self talking, I took a shower before eating breakfast after I clothed myself with the Standard Kouh Uniform and my Jacket.
I've been asked questions why I always wear it every single day, even if its hot, and I just aswer them with "Because I can".
..
After getting ready, I entered my Garage and rode on my newly bought Honda CB1300 S..Which I painted with Black(Base),White(Lining) and Purple(Complementary) Color scheme.
I even commissioned a sidecar for Cheemz to sit upon If I bring him on a ride.
I chose that particular Motorcycle for a reason, because the Honda CB1300 S is the Base model for sb-913v side basshar, which was owned by a favorite Kamen Rider of mine, Kaixa or what fans call him, Kaixand. but thats a different story.
for now, I hopped on to my Bike and Started the Ignition, I opened the Garage door using a remote and got out before closing it once more using the remote and Drove away towards the Kouh Academy.
...
After arriving at the Academy, and parking my Motorcycle at the Parking Area, I walked towards the Gate, where students are entering the gate, while some student council members are standing at the gate, ensuring the students are following the school's dress code.
All the council are familiar to me, especially Saji whom Right about now is Recruited by Sona, though, only as part of the student council, and not her peerage.
And now that is mentioned, I think tommorow is the day when Issei almost became a donut, by his so called "Girlfriend" before getting saved by Rias.
'Hmmm...Should I stop that canon Event?? Or Just let it go as it is??'I wondered as I walked towards the gate, greeting the Student council as I did so.
And as I walked towards the building my classroom is located at, I saw Issei which was bragging at his two friends about the "date" that he will have with his "girlfriend".
I shook my head and muttered, "I'll just let it happen, Issei needs this for his character development "
I then glanced at him one last time before walking faster towards the Building and into my classroom at the third floor.
As I opened the door my classmates glanced towards me so I nodded at them as a form of greeting before walking towards my seat.
Aika was already sitting at her chair so I greeted her. "Yo! Good morning Aika~"I said smiling afterwards.
"Un... Morning"She replied meekly, twirling some of her hair while blushing.
One thing to note at is, that right now Aika has let down her hair, and removed her glasses, possibly switching to contacts.
And just as I have thought, Aika became much more prettier, that the boys are taking a glance at her frequently.
"You decided to change your hair, and remove your glasses?"I asked her curiously, as if I didn't know the reason.
Hearing my question, Her face became redder as she pointed her two index fingers at each other before muttering "w-well...I just wanted to try something new...what you think?"
Seeing Aika's actions the boys in the class, Including the three perverts who arrived not too long ago looked as if their heart was pierced by the cupids arrow.
'Cute..'I and probably all the boys thought.
But then..*Slap* A slap got all the students attention so all of us, Including aika looked towards the source, and saw Issei whos hands are still both on his now red cheeks, while shaking his head.
and Issei realizing that we were looking at him smiled awkwardly before asking "What?"
and hearing Issei's question our classmates looked away before continuing what they were doing.
I gazed at Issei one last time before looking back towards Aika just as she looked at me, so our gaze met each other.
I just smiled at it, not really minding but she hurriedly looked down and from the color of her ears, Im pretty sure shes blushing.
Shes a girl afterall, be it pervert or not.
I called her out and asked "Hey Aika, wanna go have some fun after school? Im gonna Invite Ange too, If shes up for it it will be the three of us, I wanna go and explore Kouh and I dont know any good apots here so I wanna have someone leading mea, and whos a better choice than my friends right?"
Hearing my Offer, Aika looked at me before shyly muttering "Alright..."
"Great! And as for thanks, I'll treat you to whatever we eat~"I told her cheerily before sitting back down on my chair, awaiting Ange's arrival and the start of class.
And I did not have to wait for long because Ange arrived not too long after.
I Invited her just as I invited Aika, and she agreed happily, so, after that was done I once again sat down on my chair and waited for the class to start.
And a few minutes later, the class doors opened and our teacher entered.
.
.

//Afternoon//3'd Person P.O.V//
*Ding* *Ding* *Ding*
"Okay! Class Dismissed!" Sento announced as he closed the book he was reading to the class, before walking out and going to the teacher's lounge.
and just as he left students hurriedly stood up and started to go to their friends, Inviting them to eat lunch and other things, Some Got out of the classroom alone, going towards either the cantoon or the place where they eat at, and some just took out their lunch boxes, planning to eat at the classroom.
Ange, Was with her friends who always eats at the rooftop, Aika was part of the third group who eats at class alone.
Normally that is, because right now Aika was swarmed by their classmates, curious why she decided to change her style and if she did it for someone.
one of their classmates even suggested that it was because of Gabriel, Citing a blush from Aika, which made them squeal.
While some was happy for the new Aika, some...Not so much, Particularly three girls at the corner who stared at Aika badly.
"tch...Just cuzz she let down her hair she thinks that shes the prettiest, even though shes just a pervert"One of the girls said.
"I know right?... Seriously gross, just Cuzz she's somewhat on a friendly relationship with Cruz-san."Another girl Added.
Meanwhile, the last girl wasn't saying anything and just looking at Aika with dead eyes.
.....
...
Meanwhile our boy, mc is part of the second group, those who enjoy their time alone, though only if nobody employed him.
And it seems like this day is one of those days where nobody would employ him.
He didn't really care much about that, because right now, he doesn't really need any money.
Right now, Gabriel is at one of the unoccupied music room, He just finished eating his lunch and is now playing the Piano.
Though I said unoccupied there are still things here, like Different kinds of Instruments and such.
Gabriel found it the day when one of the boys employed him to prevent others, especially the girls from doing so, he just wandered around the academy, trying to find something to do, and ended up wandering into the room.
He might not look like it, but Gabriel enjoys listening to Piano especially since they owned one before where he and his parents play frequently, so after he saw the Grand Piano in the music room, He Immediately entered and tried it out.
and ever since then, he started to go back in this room frequently.
..
*Ting* *Ting*....
A melodic sound could be heard as Gabriel pressed on the piano key rhythmically, as he played one of the popular songs in his past life called 'Golden Hour'
"Humm..humm..humm~.....hummmm~"
and along the way, Gabriel couldn't help but humm.
Not realizing that he's got an audience, a group of friends who usually eat at the rooftop but could not today, and in a twist of fate decided to eat at one of the empty rooms.
A classroom which is just beside the music room.
—•—•—•—•—•—
//few minutes before//
"Nee~ Ange, Why does it seem like Cruzz-san always hangs out with you?"One of Ange's friends Suzu asked.
The 3 others nodded before one of them said "Wait~ Maybe Cruz-san Like you?" Another one of her friend Yui, said before all of them except Ange squealed.
Hearing her friends words Ange flustered, shook her haid and denied "Of course not! We are just friends! Gabriel, Is super friendly, Didn't you guys experience it when you employed him?"
"I dunno ...I mean Yes, he is nice and all that, but theres this aura of his that makes him feel distant, but when he's with you, he seems to genuinely enjoy hanging around with you" Another one of the girls, Hikaru said, as she lifted her glasses a little, which mysteriously glowed for a moment.
the other three agreed as seen with their nodding.
"You think so?...I think Gabriel is just being friendly with me, like he is with everyone"Ange replied, while pointing her two middle finger at each other.
"MHM! He even invited you to a date right?"the last girl of their group, Yūka pointed out, and once again the other three nodded while Ange blushea more.
"No! I-Its not like that...He just wanted someone to guide him, besides Its not just me that is coming along, Kiryuu-San is also going"Ange replied.
"Ooooh...Speaking of Kiry-"Yūka was about to reply when the five of them heard the door of the next room opening and closing, which stopped her.
The room got quiet for a few seconds before Yūka wanted to continue "As I was just saying, Isn't-"
Alas she was once again Interrupted, only this time, by the sound of a piano key.
*Ding* *Ting*...*Ding*
though the sound of it is muffled a bit, they could still hear the sounds, so the five of them got curious and looked at each other before nodding, and got out of the room they were in and check out the room next door.
Suzu, being the most curious of the five, hurriedly slid the door slightly, just so they can see and hear the person Inside.
and what she saw shocked her.
"No way..."Suzu muttered, so the rest got curious about the person who played this melodious piece, so the rest peeked in as well, and whom they saw surprised them.
"""A"""The four of them said at the same time, shocked to find out that The one playing was Gabriel, their classmate.
And before they could mutter anything more, they suddenly heard him humming, as he played the piano with his eyes closed.
The Melody being played in the piano and Gabriel's humming mixed in harmony creating a music that for some reason made them relaxed.
So the five friends closed their eyes as well, and just listened to Gabriel untill he finished the song a minute later.
and after hearing the music stopped one of them started clapping, Yui, being a fan of music as well, could not help but clap at Gabriel's seemingly performance.
The clap ended up getting the attention of Gabriel and her friends, and realizing that she had effectively blew their cover Yui muttered "Oh crap..."before smiling awkwardly at Gabriel who was also smiling as he stared at them.
—•—•—•—•—•—
//Gabriel P.O.V// First Person P.O.V//
'Well, Well, Looks like I got an audience' I thought as I smiled at them.
"What did you five think? I know im not that good but, I still want to know your opinions"I asked the five of them before smiling once again.
The first to answer was non other than Yui, who exclaimed "Great! That was an amazing Piece! Is it your Original?, If not what is it?! No ...If its not your Original then that song would have been popular already..."After that Yui started muttering something, so I just smiled wryly before looking at the other four.
"How about you guys? What did you think?"I asked them.
And once again hearing my question, Hikaru was the one who answered this time, "Cough...As my friend Yui said, you were great, as if you were a professional, your humming somehow made the piece more and more complete and it made us relax for some reason?" Hikaru said, before once again fixing her glass.
"Humu-Humu"I sounded as I nodded, before I looked towards the rest.
"And you three?"I questioned.
"Hai-Hai! It was super great! I didn't know the Rental Prince could play the piano so well!"Suzu cheerily replied.
"Mhm! It was good, though Can I ask what is the title of that song?"Yūko asked.
"Ahh...Well, I call it Golden Hour"I said casually, scratching my cheek with my Index finger, before I accidentally met my gaze with Ange, who has a golden blonde hair.
I just smiled at her, which for made her blush.
and seeing that I chuckled Inside my head while simultaneously apologizing towards the real composer of the song.
Of course I planned all that, well, not all of them, I didn't think Ange and her friends were actually at the other room besides this one, and didn't also think they would go and check it out. but after they were revealed My mind has automatically made an Idea on how to tease Ange.
Its just so fun, seeing her flustered like that, Its strangely therapeutic for me.
I dont know if this is love. or something else, but I do know that I enjoy Ange,Aika and even Sometimes Issei's Company, even though the dud was a massive pervert the dude is still good, heck there was one time where I saw him helping an old lady, carrying what the old lady was supposed to cary.
Hes still a massive pervert though..
And speaking of Issei, Tommorow will be the day when he awakens as the Red dragon emperor and the future Boob Dragon Emperor..
Meh, Ive decide to not Interfere with his fate, Maybe I'll help him when the time comes.
Maybe give him a Driver? Anyways thats in the future now lets focus on this Blushing Adorable Angel.
"What did you think Ange?"I asked her.
Ange, hearing my question once again, became flustered, why did I think so? Well, If Her blushing and fidgeting constantly is not considered being flustered then I dont lnow what is.
"W-well...Its good...and I love it as well"She said, her voice getting lower and lower each words until I couldn't hear it well.
"Pfft.."I couldn't help but chuckle a bit before I patted her head.
"Thank you for the compliment"I said as I patted this flustered Angel.
*Cough*
Suddenly We both heared a cough, which was followed by one of Ange's friend voice, specifically Suzu who said "Should we go? and leave the lovebirds alone?"
She said teasingly, which made Ange more flushed as she hurriedly denied it."No! we were just-"
"Pfft..hahah, Yeah yeah we were just messing with you"Yūko chuckled and said, which was followed by the other three's snicker.
Ange's face became much more redder and she even lowered her face.
I just smiled at their antics before. "So, What are you ladies doing here at this time? I thought u guys always eat at the rooftop?" I asked the five of them.
Yui was the one who ended up answering my question, and it turned out the reason why they did not eat at the rooftops is because they felt like it, and wanted to eat somewhere else for today.
And they happen to decide on the room next frim this one. What a coincidence right? Its like an all powerful being made that happen, just cuz he can.
Anyways.
"Ahh~ it's quite a coincidence no?..But anyway since you girls are here, do you ladies want to listen more? Or if you guys want to, play along with me?"I offered them, though before they could answer, I felt a vibration on my pocket, so I took out my phone, the source of it and saw that a certain raven hair girl is calling me.
So I excused myself from them for a moment before going out and answering the phone, leaving the 5 a bit bewildered.
—•—•—•—•—•—
"Hello? What does the Lightning Priestess want with this lowly student?"I asked Akeno, the person calling, teasingly.
⟨"Ara~? What do you mean? Rental Prince? Didn't you and Rias have an agreement before? Regarding the spar with Kiba-kun, Rias said that tommorow would be an Ideal day"⟩Akeno, replied with her normal teasing voice.
And hearing the Nickname that has been regulating around behind my back, being mentioned I Cringed and felt as if an arrow pierced on my head.
"You win this time"I groaned on the phone before muttering"alright, Im free tommorow since its Saturday anyways"
⟨"Alright then, I'll tell Rias, now, do you want this Onee-chan to reward you if you win against Kiba?"⟩Akeno Sultry asked on her end of the phone.
"I refuse!"I replied as soon as I heared it, afterwards, We talked for a few more minutes before saying goodbye.
Akeno, seemed upset somehow? Anyways
As soon as I finished the call with Akeno, I headed back Inside the Music Room and saw that Ange and her friends are playing with Different kinds of Instruments.
So I joined them, once again playing the piano, but this time with Ange and her friends.
that lasted Untill, the Bell rang, signifying the end of lunch break, so the five of us walked back to the classroom together.
—•—•—•—•—•—
[Narrator's P.O.V]
*Ding* *Dong* *Ding*....
The school bell rang, signifying the end of the class for this day, the students after saying goodbye to their teachers, are now getting ready to depart towards each their homes, some, stayed behind, either because of clubs or school duties, while some, wanted to go and have fun.
and one of them is our protagonist, Gabriel who is now being accompanied by 6 women, earning the ire of many male students as they walked outside the building, towards the academy's gates.
Though, It isnt just Gabriel getting stared at, the 6 girls, got their fair share of stares from the crowd as well, some even gossiping as they looked towards Gabriel and the Gals.
Meanwhile, a Certain raven haired beauty gazed her eyes towards Gabriel and his group, before smiling teasingly, before she continued walking towards her club, Imagining how he would react if he used this scene as a teasing material.
Too bad!Our boy is a man of sheer fucking will! and would not let anyone see his vulnerable self. He has suffered enough in the past to learn that one should never ever expose their weakness in front of other people.
Now, where were we?
[Narrator P.O.V](End)
....
[Gabriel P.O.V]
Should have predicted this would happen, *sigh* well, this is how it is in Japan I guess, those who stood out will most likely be Isolated from the rest.
I dont mind about it though, Because It wont really affect me negatively, I am just passing through this world afterall, and besides! These guys thoughts dont really matter in the grand scheme of things, especially in this world Full of Beings that could honestly Destroy a part of the human population if they so will it.
And lets not mention about Ophis and Great red, Just the Satans are enough to Wipe out humanity if nobody stopped them.
Anyhow, though I dont really mind, I think the girls will, Honestly I didn't think this through, Inviting Six beautiful girls, of course it would attract Massive attention, since especially there is me, which is a male, hanging out with 6 Girls, People would either think that Im gay or a scumbag.
anyhow, it wont affect me that much but I dont know about these six.
I looked back towards the six of them, who were surprisingly not minding the people around them, heck they were even chatting about what they want to do, Even Aika, who is normally quite Introverted Joined the 5 friends.
'They look like they get along well, Good for Aika.'
After I thought about those words, I could not help but smile, the previous negative thoughts inside my head washed away by happiness.
I am a man afterall, and being accompanied by 6 beautiful ladies really worked really well for my non-existent ego/Self-esteem.
'Inviting them as well was a wise choice, Nice one! past me!'I thought happily as I walked in a rhythm followed by Aika, Ange and her or maybe their (now?) Friends, Ignoring the looks the seven of us are receiving as we passed by the gate.
though not like the stares never stopped as people still gazed at our group more often than not.
I stopped for a moment, and looked towards them before saying "So? Where should we go for now? U guys can lead the way! Its my treat whatever we do right now!" I asked the six of them.
"Hmm,It is up to you, Do you want to go to places where we can have fun, eat or all of them?"Asked Hikaru.
The rest of them kept quiet as they look at me, deep in thought, thinking where the best place to go. 'Im guessing that the place where we can go eat and have fun must be some kind of mall, while if I pick just one of the two before we move on to the others, It must be specialized, Like some kind of Street where food are abundant or A game park' I thought, for a few more minutes before Eventually I decided.
"Since, We dont have a lot of time, Why dont we go the the place where we can both enjoy food and Play?"I suggested.
The six of them nodded before Aika raised her hand.
"Yes Aika?" I asked her, and the 5 looked at her as well.
Seeing that she got all their attention, aika smiled before saying "I know just the place!, It just opened Yesterday and Im pretty sure none of us have come there at least once"
Hearing Aika's words, the eyes of the other five lit up before each of them gave Aika a thumbs up.
"Nice! Aika!"Yūka expressed before she turned at me and asked.
"You, wouldn't happen to be allergic to cats right?"She asked.
"Of course not! My body is as perfect as it can be" 'Literally' I added at the end, though only on my mind.
"Yabei~ It looks like Gabriel-Kun is a bit narcissistic"Suzu playfully teased.
Of course I just laughed at it, Since she is Kinda right, still, who would not be narcissistic even a tiny bit, if they were given the perfect body by god.
Of course, that only applied to my bodily functions, and not the aesthetics parts, I specifically made it like this because, Based on some Anime I saw, Having a perfectly aesthetic Body, Is both a blessing and a curse.
Because 1.I would be to inconspicuous, I would possibly get a lot of stalkers and I dont want that, Its bothersome.
2.I wouldnt feel safe with having the most perfect Body, Aesthetic wise in this world because greek gods are a thing here.
I dont want Persephone and Aphrodite to bother me, especially since I need time to grow. I sont wanna become the second coming of Adonis himself.
so nope! Nada! My current appearance is enough!, enough to pass as a pretty handsome fellow that would be wanted by a lot of ladies, but also not that handsome that I could "Topple a Country just by my handsomeness" as a chinese philosopher said.
Now, It may have felt like a lot of time has passed, because of my Long Inner monologues but In reality? Only a second has passed, thanks to my perfect human brain~
I said Human, because I am still human right now, The unique thing about my "Perfect Body" wish is that, whatever my race is it would always be the most perfect being of that race, Like If I become and amazon, I would pretty much be the Emperor of Amazon, Aka one of the Original Amazon, but better! since I could Control other amazons!
Anyway, we are getting sudetracked so lets go back towards our lovely conversation with the ladies.
I looked towards the six laughing ladies, before I beckoned "So what are we waiting for? Lets go towards the place you mentioned! and Dont forget!its my treat so you guys can enjoy yourselves no holding back~"
Suddenly Aika muttered something before blushing hard"This....It kinda sounds like he is our sugar daddy"
Of course, since we are all in close proximity we could hear what she said, and the 4 of the girls, except Ange Blushed hard.
Ange just looked at the five confused amd asked "Umm...What is a sugar daddy?, Is it like how dad's put sugar on coffe?"
She asked Innocently.
"Pfft...Bwahahahah!" Suddenly Suzu laughed, which was followed by the chuckles of her three other friends, meanwhile Aika, realizing that all of us must have heard her mutterings glanced at us, more specifically me, our eyes met so I just smiled at her, whichmade her blush even more, embarrassed at what happened, while the four other are still chuckling.
I couldnt help but amile widely as well, before I pat Ange's head and said, "dont worry about it Ange, you should just think about what you will eat later"
"Mou! Dont treat me like a child! We're the same age here! Tell me~!"
Ange complained and afterwards pout, which gained another chuckle from the group.
"Haah, Now then! You guys lead the way!"
"Alright~"Aika answered before leading us.
It took only about 10-15 minutes walk, to reach our destination and while on the way, we or more specifically I, bought any food that we liked along the way.
....
//A few Hours later//
"Cheemz! Im back!" I called out as I entered the house carrying a few paper bags, and soon enough a sound of a dog hurriedly running was heard and not long after cheemz can be seen dashing towards me.
*Bark* *Bark*
He barked as he tried to pin me hoping to lick my face.
"Hahaha! Good doggy~"I replied as I pat him.
But suddenly he stopped and looked at me, confused so he sniffed.
"What?...Ohh~ You must have smelt the scent of Cats"I explained after comprehending why hes sniffing.
"I was with friends that invited me to this cat Caffe that opened up, well...I was the pne who Invited them to guide me and all but they chose where we go so yeah..."I explained to cheemz.
"Oh! and Here! I bought some treats!"I said before opening one of the box I was Carrying, which contains Dog treats.
I then took one and handed it to cheemz which, made him happy, Seeing with his wagging tail.
"Lets go Inside! Srill need to put what Im carrying in the fridge"I said before walking towards where the kitchen is, of course! not before closing and locking the door.
//10 Minutes Later//
"Ahhhhhhh...."I sighed in content as I entered the bath tub.
Closing my eyes trying to relax after what has happened this day, It was a pretty long day, With class, my Interactions with fellow students and even Unexpectedly meeting Ange and Her friends in that Music Room.
Afterwards, the trip to that Cat cafe and the other things that we did after that.
"At this rate, I might really be attached to this world..."I muttered, opening my eyes as I thought on what will happen in the future.
The plot has just started, and tommorow will be the day Issei will join Rias's peerage.
As well as my sparing with Yuuto.
and after that, crazy things will soon follow.
"What If I mess around for a bit, give some people that was only a background character In the anime some power boost"I suddenly muttered, getting an Idea.
Since I dont care about the plot anyways, especially since the butterfly effect will happen anyways, why not have some fun and make some normal characters In the anime have powers.
One person came to mind immediately..
Mil-tan..
the absolute of a beast that traumatized Issei, but still became one of his friends.
'Should, I perhaps Give him a Driver? If so..What will it be..'
I entered in a deep thought, thinking about drivers that would be compatible with mil-tan.
'Honestly, the most fitting would be an Advent deck' I thought, Since with it, he can choose his own contract monster.
Why dont I just make lots of them, and give it to people who could be trusted.
"Anyways thats still in the future! for now, lets check our daily quest!"I said, before opening the ⟨⟨Daily Quest⟩⟩ tab.
"Eh... Nothing has changed, Still Only the Evil Hunt and Exercise quest"I muttered, looking at the only current 2 Quests.
afterwards I opened my Inventory to check the progress of my material collections.

"Humu! Its satisfying seeing what I have, though I know its not enough! Im still just starting!"I stated after nodding, looking through the Inventory has been a habit that I do every single time that I take a bath.
And as for why I have not used any of the bronze token? Well, I want to only roll when I have sufficient tokens since I can get a higher chance to get some full set of gears.
Continuing, I soaked in the bath for some time afterwards.
....
.....
⟨Slash Vent!⟩
*SCREEEEECH!*
The dispider Screeched as I wounded his body with a Slash Vent, and seeing the spider started getting weaker, I decided it was time to finish it.
⟨AdVent!⟩
⟨Final Vent!⟩
I Inserted two cards consecutively, One to summon my partner Hiewolfer and one to finish the monster of.
After Hiewolfer appeared with all her majesty, I mounted her and we dashed towards the weak dispider, Jumping when we got near enough, I then jumped from Hiewolfer's back before I boosted myself, Using her as a springboard lunching Into the Dispider with a kick powered by gravity and velocity.
*Whing!*
As I passed by the Dispider, landing perfectly, nothing seemed to have happened at first, but then the Dispider started to freeze and not long after its body seemed to become something of an Ice sculpture before cracking and then shattering into a white light, which Hiewolfer absorbed not long afterwards.
"Fwooooh....Hunt complete" I muttered solemnly before looking back towards Hiewolfer.
"Thanks!, Though I think its time to end the hunt for this night ..."I thanked her, and she nodded Before shrinking to Dog size.
"Alright! Lets go back to the base, cheemz is waiting!"I stated before summoning the Rideshooter, and Riding towards my house in the Mirror Dimension.
Its been an hour after that bathing Session before, and I decided to hunt some mirror monsters once more after the last time when I met Hie and Cheemz.
I specifically focus Hunting Dispiders since they are one of the most aggressive of the bunch.
I have killed 4 more since I started, and it was more easier than before when I met Hie and Cheemz
and although I would have liked to continue, I wanted the sparring with Kiba to happen tonight, since tommorow, Rias and the Peerage will be really busy with the Issei situation.
Not long afterwards, we arrived at my house in the mirror dimension and saw Cheemz waiting for us near the door.
I patted his head greeting him before he and Hie played for 5 more minutes before we exited the mirror dimension where after arriving hie and cheemz played for a few more minutes before I had to un-henshin as it was already nearing the time for me to go meet with Rias and her peerage.
Of course I have already notified Akeno and the rest and they agreed, so after taking a bath once more which will make this the third and would most likely not be the last today, and drove towards the Kouh Academy using the bike that I asked to be modified to look as close as possible to Side basharr.
Why did I bother despite having the rideshooter? theres no particular reason other than liking the design of side basharr.
I arrived at the academy not long afterwards, as the bike is quite fast.
After storing the bike in my inventory, of course only after making sure that nobody would see it, I entered the school premises.
I headed straight towards the Occult Research club and upon arrival, I was greeted with the scene of Rias and her peerage drinking tea, just as the same I met all of them.
"Yo! Good evening" I greeted.
All of them replied with their own ways, Koneko nodding, Kiba greeting me as well, meanwhile Akeno was smiling for some reason and Rias Nodded before greeting me back.
"soo..where are we doing the spar?" I asked, as the school would not really be an ideal location for a spar as it might damage some of the schools property.
hearing my question. Rias took one more sip on her tea before placing it down and replying.
"Well, the location the spar will take in is the training grounds me and my peerage use frequently as the school grounds might get damaged, and well, there are some patrolling guards here as well" Rias replied.
"huh...alright then when do we go?" I asked.
and before I could follow up, Akeno interrupted.
"Now, now~ you just arrived, why don't u drink some tea? I'm sure it was tiring having a date with 6 girls at the same time no?" She said teasingly.
After hearing her words, I realized why she has that smile, a smile as if she found something to toy with.
and there's only one thing to do, of course that's to feign ignorance as In the first place it wasn't a date to begin with.
Only F-, a group of friends that was having fun! Yeah!
"What do you mean? I was not in a date with 6 girls or anyone for that matter" I replied feigning confusion.
hearing my reply, Akeno slyly smiled and said "Ohhh~? You're telling me that you did not go out with 6 of your classmates a few hours ago?"
Hearing her reply I shook my head slowly and said "Oh no, You got it all wrong Akeno, I was just asking them for a tour of this town, because as you know I just arrived here just recently"
"Hmmmm? Are you sure there wasn't any motives there?" She asked teasingly.
"hooh? why do you even care if there was any anyways? Jealousy perhaps?" I asked her, half as a joke and half serious.
Akeno was about to retort when
"Alright, that's enough you two!, Akeno please make us some more team please? and you, Cruz-san, you can rest in the couch for now, and we will start the sparring not long afterwards." She stated.
""Alright/K"" Akeno and I answered at the same time, Akeno gave me a one last look, smiling before going in the back part of the room, while I after looking at her as well sat besides Koneko opposite side of Kiba.
"yo" I greeted KIba once more.
"Hello Cruz-san" He replied before going back to sipping his tea.
'Well, this is pretty awkward' I thought, before looking around the room and landing my eyes into the quiet nekoshu besides me.
"Oh right!" I exclaimed which got the attention of Rias, Kiba and Koneko.
and before Rias could ask, I took out a paper bag full of taiyaki which I got from that cat cafe me and the girls went in before.
"Here, a gift" I said before passing the Taiyaki bag towards akeno, and taking out another bag but a plastic one this time, which contains 3 boxes of chocolate cake which I passed to Rias.
"And that's for you three, I didn't know what flavor you guys would like so I just got the Chocolate cake, since nobody dislikes chocolate right?"I said
Meanwhile Rias and even Kiba looked at me, astonished, as seen on their face.
"So..what's wrong?"I asked, which got the two of them of their stupor, while Koneko on the other hand is already eating one of the taiyaki on the bag.
"*Cough* Forgive me for asking this as it might seem rude but, how did you even did that?" Rias asked, while Kiba continued sipping on his tea, but he got a little closer.
"Its a secret." I replied, smiling mysteriously.
I decided to show my Inventory ability because 1.Just because, 2.There isn't really harm in them knowing, as I didn't directly reveal my system and it can be passed on as some rare space magic.
"Anyways, be sure to enjoy it~ Its quite good!"I stated before looking at Koneko besides me who just finished her first taiyaki.
"Good right? I got that from this newly opened Cat cafe in town, that me and friends of mine went to a few hours ago"I said, stopping for a second before continuing.
"And I really like cats~ both cats and dogs actually, I even have a Dog at my house, which im sure Akeno already told you about"
after saying those words, I remembered something, and looked towards Rias and asked.
"Rias, have you noticed how recently lots of people disappear suddenly?" I asked her seriously, and it got the attention of all of them, even Akeno who placed down the tea pot at the table.
"So, Im sure Akeno must have already told you about our conversation of the Mirror world, and the monsters that reside within."I stated and stopped to look at their reaction.
Rias nodded slowly, and confirmed, while Akeno, just poured each of us tea, while Koneko just continued eating and Kiba acting cool.
I nodded before continuing "Well, I dont know about your Dimension and all that but, people keep going missing these past week, and I suspect that It is most likely all related to the Mirror Monsters that reside in the mirror dimension, Its not just the dispider that are Killing the humans, there are different kinds of Mirror Monsters there is in the Mirror world, though in Kouh, Its mostly the dispider's that rule in this town's mirror world" After saying all of that I once again stopped to let them digest the information.
and after seeing them relaxing once more I continued.."Im sure you all know, that these disappearance only happened recently, but I can tell you, that the mirror world existed way before, though mostly kept as a secret, even from powerhouses, as the mirror world was sealed, only being known by certain few and one of them is Great Red themselves."
"One of the reasons why the knowledge of the Mirror world was not passed around is that the Mirror world is basically the same or even stronger than the real world, combined as the Monsters can grow freely in there, unlike In this plane"
"And you know, where theres strong being, lots of people will have certain Ideas themselves, be it Taming them or harnessing their powers and whatnot" After saying this, I stopped for a moment, sipping the tea that Akeno made.
"This is good tea"I praised before setting the tea back on the table and continuing.
"Anyways, I will keep the story short, Basically the Mirror World was sealed and only people with a certain Item can enter there at will, but for some reason the seal cracked and lower class Mirror monsters can now roam the real world, albeit temporarily."
Basically I spouted some BS so that they dont suspect me, as the cause even tho, Im most likely part of it, since this is technically one of the big G's gift for me.
And Im not sure if Me having the Advent Deck wad the cause of all this fiasco.
Quite scary to think actually, that Im actually the reason that caused all the death thats happening and will happen.
But it was bound to happen, sooner or later, and I wont regret any of this, since just me being here will cause a lot of butterfly effect that might even cause this world to be destroyed, but I'll stop prevent it from harming the majority as long as I can.
and I know myself is not enough so I decided to recruit people to help me.
Although it seemed like it was a long time of me thinking, In reality only a secon passed by.
"Im sure you all know what that Item is by now..Capable of making someone enter and exit the mirror world when willed"I stated.
Rias Nodded and said" That deck you have right?"
"Bing! Bong! Thats Right!"I confirmed, before saying, "Now, my deck is called a Mirror Deck or what i personally like to call it an Advent Deck"
"The Advent deck has certain abilities, which are: 1.Entering and Exiting the Mirror world 2.Enhancing the User, 3.Contracting and Containing Mirror monster to become someone like me! A keeper and protector of the Mirror World called; Kamen Riders"
I explained.
"Now, you might ask, Why tell you all this and, what are my Intentions and all that" I said before continuing"Well, First of all, I have no Desire to Hurt any of you nor I am capable of doing it in the first place. second of all I am telling you this because I am only one of the few thats been left upon the Keeper, heck I dont even know if the others are alive. And lastly, Im only a Rookie and Got to only know this because of an Inheritance that I have received and would like some new allies"
Naturally I once again Lied, but no matter, They wont find out the truth anyways.
"I would like for you guys to be an ally, Im trying to rebuild the Keepers, and I think it would be beneficial for all of us to be allies" I stated.
"Though! For now, I can be a mercenary of some sorts, I can go and take jobs from you guys Involving cases when it comes to these things as Im the only one that can freely enter and exit the mirror world, It can also be used as my training, so what do you think?"I asked them, more specifically Rias as she is the King of this peerage.
"But!! Thats all for later! Why dont we do the sparring first? to demonstrate my abilities and you can think about your answer for my proposition afterwards"I said, smiling.
It took Rias and her peerage a bit more time to digest all the Info that I have dumped on their heads before they woke up from their stupor.
"*cough* Alright then, let us go now, Akeno you can do the Honor"Rias commanded.
"Alright the~"Akeno Replied before Standing up and starting to construct a Magic Circle.
And not long afterwards, Akeno was done making the Magic circle so after Rias and the peerage Stood up, I followed along towards the Magic Circle Akeno just made.
And a second later, we appeared in an unfamiliar place.
The place, how should I said it... Basically just a forest, although there is that eye-catching mansion thoug which I assume is one of Rias' Property somewhere in the human world.
"Welcome! To one of our bases In kouh"Rias said, before asking me to follow them as she and her Peerage walked Inside.
After Entering Rias clapped her hand which made the House lights Turn on.
She then lead us towards what I assume to be a basement, something like my Gym room In the basement Area.
I was proven right, after we entered, as I saw some Barbells and other tools at the corner of the room, While the middle has a Battle arena which was probably made by a strong kind of stone, probably magic enhanced.
There were also Mirrors decorated in some part of the room.
While I was gazing Around the room Jn wonder, a bit envious that my house is smaller than Rias, but then again she literally have her brother, a Satan class as her backer which was kinda understand.
Though if I would need to choose I will always pick my house over than this.
Anyways, continuing, Kiba positioned himself in one side of the arena before looking towards Rias, whom nodded before looking towards me and said.
"Alright! Cruzz-san, you can go in the arena, and we'll start the spar!"She said, pointing at the other side of the Arena, opposite of Kiba.
"Alright!"
after replying to Rias, I went ahead and walked towards the place she pointed out before looking towards kiba and asked.
"Are you ready?"
"Ready."Kiba replied after nodding.
And seeing that both of us are in position now, Rias who I assume would be acting as our referee nodded before loudly saying.
"Alright! Sparring between Kiba and Cruzz-san wil now...."
"Begin!"
After hearing her last word, Kiba Immediately dashed towards me, materializing a sword as he did so.
Meanwhile, After hearing Rias last word, I took out my Advent Deck before pointing it towards Kiba, or more specifically the Mirror at Kibas back, which reflected Me wearing a belt, and so the belt Materialized in my waist as well.
I raised the Deck with my right hand while crossing it with my left hand and muttered.
"HENSHIN!"
Afterwards, I slid the deck into my belt, and got into a Fighting position as 3 Silver silhouette of me refracted and Joined towards me.
And after a flashed happened I was revealed with my snow white suit on.
⟨The Hunter admist the freezing winter, underneath the full moon!⟩
