Just now, Badr and Rias had explored each other a bit and of course Asia had woken up. After all, Badr and Rias hadn't been considerate of her at all. But being thin-skinned, Asia's face was completely red.
Still, she stubbornly clung to Badr without letting go.
Seeing Asia's shy and envious expression, Rias seemed to feel she'd gained a lot, lying on her side, supporting her cheek with her hand and smiling happily:
"After I finished healing you yesterday, she insisted on staying as well."
"That's because President, you just fell asleep next to Badr..."
Asia, looking frustrated and unconvinced, said, "But that's normal, after all, President is gentle and beautiful, it's natural for Badr to like her..."
Saying this, she compared her own figure with Rias and sighed even deeper.
"Look how you've enchanted our little Asia." Rias looked at Badr and reproached him teasingly.
Badr felt innocent in his heart.
What have I done?
Is this girl really sure that she likes me?
Even if she was very moved by my rescue yesterday, it shouldn't have led to her sleeping with me like that...
"Asia, you're too easy to marry." He could only say this in a resigned tone.
"Not at all, Badr is very charming!" Asia replied loudly.
Badr chuckled helplessly and said to Rias, "Isn't it because my face is too handsome?"
"Exactly, you are my cutest servant."
Rias continued with a smile, although she said "servant", her eyes clearly showed that she saw him as a lover, and she couldn't help but kiss Badr;
This made Asia's head buzz immediately.
"Pre-President... how can you be like this, it's too unfair!"
As soon as Rias let go of Badr, Asia immediately pounced on him.
Badr wanted to say something, but soon Asia's lips blocked his, leaving him no choice but to give up.
This kind of life...
...
It was almost ten o'clock when Badr, Rias and Asia arrived at the school via the teleportation array.
Of course, there was no talk of punishment for being late. As long as Rias spoke to the student council, the teachers wouldn't ask much.
In the club room, after Rias had finished talking about her lateness, Badr suddenly spoke up:
"Ah, I forgot, we have exams today..."
Rias spread her hands helplessly, "There's nothing we can do about it, after all we encountered enemies yesterday."
"Oh my, only the three of you didn't have exams~" Akeno Himejima said with a smile as she served them tea.
Rias didn't care about the exams at all, but she seemed to remember something:
"Speaking of exams, Badr's power has already reached the level of a mid-level devil, but his rank still needs to be upgraded by the promotion exam..."
Badr raised his eyebrow slightly:
"...Promotion Exam?"
...
In the clubroom, Badr soon got an explanation about the "promotion exam" from Rias.
"The devil ranks are currently divided into low class devil, middle class devil, high class devil, and ultimate class devil. And to explain further, the devil ranks we usually talk about should be understood in two ways!"
Rias raised two fingers, "One is the division of power, and the other is the division of rank."
Badr raised an eyebrow slightly, "What exactly does that mean?"
"Most of the time, devils are ranked according to their positions. For example, I am a high class devil, Akeno and Koneko are both middle class devils, and you, Badr, are a low class devil. You should have known this a long time ago."
"I know that."
Enemies had always referred to him as such, calling him a low-class devil.
Of course, enemies wouldn't have anything nice to say. Badr was not proud of being a Low-Class Devil; after all, who doesn't start weak and get stronger step by step?
Rias continued with a smile, "But actually, Badr, you must have wondered why Akeno is still a Mid-Class Devil when her fighting power is already not inferior to mine.
This question had indeed puzzled Badr for a long time, as Akeno Himejima's strength was undoubtedly at the level of a high-class devil.
After listening to Rias explanation, Badr finally understood something and said:
"The reason is that even though Akeno's combat strength is at the level of a high-class devil, her rank is still mid-class because she hasn't passed the promotion test. These terms sound the same, but they are actually two different ranking systems, right?"
"Yes, you got it."
Badr nodded speechlessly, "So one is a power ranking and the other is a title ranking, huh?"
"Yes, that's a fair way of understanding it."
Rias smiled as she took Badr's arm:
"Don't underestimate the importance of this title, because only those who have been granted the rank of High Class Devil by the Satan are qualified to receive Devil Pieces."
"Huh? Are you talking about those devil pieces that were used on us?"
"That's right, and that's the significance of the promotion test. Even you, Badr, can become a high-level devil through the promotion test and then become a [King] yourself!"
"But I am your servant, Rias."
"So after you become a High-Class Devil, you will be independent and can form your own team." Rias said with a smile.
Badr chuckled, "Just hearing about it sounds like a distant thing. I'm quite happy being your servant now, so there's no rush."
Hearing this, Rias eyes softened a bit, "You need to have some ambition. Even if you become independent, you'll always be my favorite person in my heart!"
"Oh my, is that a confession?" Akeno Himejima teased from the side.
Rias expression froze slightly, as if she remembered something, and her face darkened.
She did have strong feelings for Badr, but she didn't feel qualified to say she liked him yet.
After all, there was her family...
At that thought, a hint of sadness flickered in the girl's eyes.
Badr understood Rias difficulties, knowing that she was thinking about the fiancé her family had arranged for her.
"Don't think too much about the future, just focus on the present."
He seemed to be talking to himself, but he was also advising Rias.
Rias gathered her emotions and forced a smile:
"Anyway, that's the situation. Badr, your current power is at the level of a mid-level devil, but it's not easy to pass the promotion test. Without it, you'll always be considered a low-class devil."
It seemed that the promotion test was quite difficult to pass.
But Badr wasn't particularly worried:
"Is the Promotion Examination that difficult? If so, we can ignore it for a while. Being a low class devil is just a title, I don't really care about it.
As long as his strength was strong enough, that was enough for him!
He didn't envy the promotion test and the title of mid-class devil.
Strength is the foundation!
As long as his strength was strong enough, as a low class devil, he could still defeat those so-called high class devils!
If he were to envy anything, it would be those strong beings at the high class devil level.
"In order to take the promotion test, one must either make special contributions or excel in the ranking games. After all, these rules are set to increase the power of the devil race, so it's worth striving for." Rias smiled, clearly hoping that Badr would strive to pass the advancement test to become a high-class devil, as this would raise his status and attract significant attention from both angels and fallen angels.
"Got it."
"Yes, so work hard. Try to sign some important contracts; that's also an important aspect of evaluation. And maintain your relationship with your superstar girlfriend!"
When Rias mentioned Badr's human contract goal, her expression was completely normal, but Badr could still sense a bit of jealousy in her eyes...
"Badr, are you dating your contract target?" Asia immediately teared up, "Actually, I can do that too. It seems I have to work harder..."
"You're such a playboy." Koneko mocked him directly.
Looking at the suddenly chaotic scene, Badr was speechless.
"Speaking of which, I'm quite worried about Mai. She doesn't accept this world view as easily as I do."
Badr said quietly, actually feeling a bit worried.
Rias raised her eyebrows slightly:
"You don't seem to realize that your superstar girlfriend is just a human with a life span of no more than eighty years, while you as a devil have an eternal life."
"I've thought about it." Badr sighed softly, "Now that I think about it, I really need to attain the rank of a high-class devil.
Only by becoming a High-Class Devil and possessing Devil Pieces will he be able to turn his loved ones into Devils and live with them forever...
Rias smiled with satisfaction: "It's good that you understand. So work hard, develop more clan members for our devils!"
Badr chuckled: "The person who invented the devil pieces must have been a genius."
"Haha, indeed!"
Rias stepped forward and kissed Badr on the cheek in front of everyone, "Make sure you finish your work well tonight!"
...
After school, Badr and the others gathered in the clubroom.
After her shower, Rias came out wrapped in a towel, her stunning appearance was extremely eye-catching.
But such a beautiful sight
could only be enjoyed by Badr, the only male in the clubroom.
Rias glanced at Badr, completely unconcerned that her current attire was provocative.
They had done everything but the last step, so what was there to worry about?
In fact, this was the reason why Badr was always envied and resented by the boys in his class...
His relationship with Rias and the others was too good, making those who admired these beauties feel cold inside...
Originally, the Occult Research Club had Rias, Akeno Himejima, and Koneko Toujou, three super beauties. After Asia was transferred to Kuoh Academy, there were four great beauties in this club.
In this situation, Badr, the only boy in the Occult Research Club, made everyone feel unbalanced...
In the eyes of many classmates, Badr was just a slightly better-looking guy, so why was he the only one allowed to join Rias club!
Badr's daily behavior was always very ordinary;
He seemed very normal in his interactions with others, but he always managed to maintain a perfect balance in his relationships, never getting too close or too distant with anyone.
Even when he did something with others, they would not have a strong impression of Badr afterward, remaining in a state of unfamiliarity!
Only Rias and the others understood his true nature.
They knew that Badr's real personality was somewhat reclusive;
He didn't like to talk to people, but he always acted very normal.
A person who is reclusive but unaware is pitiful, but a person who is reclusive and aware is incredibly resilient.
Because of this, Rias and the others saw Badr as very strong.
One day, he would no longer be able to hide his brilliance, and he would shine brightly in front of everyone, and at that time, he would be unprecedentedly powerful.
