[Initializing System…]
[Scanning Soul Signature…]
[Entity Identified: Naruto Uzumaki]
[Reconstruction Process Beginning…]
Naruto's consciousness floated in an abyss, a cold void where time and space didn't seem to exist. There was no pain, no sense of self—just darkness.
"Is this what death feels like?"
He tried to move, but he had no body. He tried to speak, but no sound came. The last thing he remembered was a battle—something beyond anything he had faced before. A force that even the combined power of the Shinobi world couldn't stop.
Then… nothing.
Just as he started to lose himself in the emptiness, a sudden voice echoed around him.
[Congratulations, User! You have been selected for Reincarnation!]
[New World: High School DxD Universe]
[Initializing Rebirth…]
Before he could even process those words, a shockwave of energy exploded around him, dragging his very soul into a spiraling vortex.
Kuoh Town – A New Beginning
A sharp gasp tore through Naruto's throat as he shot up, his lungs desperate for air. He was alive.
He sat upright in an unfamiliar bed, his body covered in a thin layer of sweat. His heartbeat pounded like a war drum in his chest, his senses hyperaware. The scent of lavender filled the air, the soft touch of expensive silk sheets registering against his fingertips.
"Where the hell am I?"
He swung his legs off the bed and stood, only to stagger forward as a rush of dizziness hit him. Something felt… off. His body was different. Stronger? No, more refined. He moved to the nearby mirror and froze.
Gone was his signature blond hair. Instead, dark obsidian strands framed his face, his once-sky-blue eyes now a crimson shade that pulsed with faint energy. His features were sharper, almost aristocratic.
But the most jarring realization?
His chakra was gone.
A jolt of panic surged through him as he reached inward, desperately searching for even a flicker of his old power. The familiar warmth of chakra, the energy that had been part of him since birth—it was completely erased.
Then, another surprise.
[Demonic Core Detected.]
[Welcome, Naruto Bael.]
"Bael…?!"
The name struck him like a thunderbolt. He had seen this before, in another world. The Bael Clan—the strongest noble family among devils, known for wielding the terrifying Power of Destruction.
His heart pounded as fragmented memories flashed through his mind—his new life, a strict upbringing, high expectations, and rejection. The original owner of this body had been a failure in the eyes of the Bael family. A noble born without the ability to use their signature destructive power.
"So… I'm a discarded heir? An underdog? Heh."
A slow smirk played at his lips. That's just fine.
He didn't need chakra. He didn't need a family's approval. If this world worked anything like a game, then he would do what he had always done—grind his way to the top.
As if responding to his thoughts, a bright blue panel materialized in front of him.

"A game system, huh?"
His smirk widened. This world had no idea what was coming.
Just as another notification appeared, a knock sounded at his door.
"Young Master Naruto, Lady Rias Gremory has arrived to see you."
His eyes flickered.
"Rias Gremory, huh? Guess it's time to start my new life."
Scene Change – Kuoh Academy
The sun hung high in the sky as Naruto walked through the gates of Kuoh Academy, dressed in a crisp uniform. He could already feel it—traces of demonic energy lurking throughout the campus.
This was a school that housed devils, particularly the Gremory Peerage. And at the heart of it all?
Rias Gremory.
His new instincts immediately sensed her—a powerful presence radiating from the old school building.
"So, she's already keeping an eye on me, huh? Fine, let's make things interesting."
Rias Gremory's POV
Rias Gremory sat comfortably in her office, sipping tea as she analyzed the new transfer student's profile.
Naruto Bael.
A supposed failure of the Bael Clan, someone who had been cast aside due to his inability to wield their signature power. And yet…
Her instincts screamed that there was more to him than what was written. His aura was strange. Controlled. Unlike the other devils she had encountered.
"Interesting," she murmured, placing the file down.
A knock at the door interrupted her thoughts.
"Enter."
The door swung open, and he walked in.
The first thing she noticed? Confidence.
He strode into the room with a casual ease, as if he owned the space. His striking red eyes locked onto hers, a slow smirk playing at his lips.
"So, you're Rias Gremory," he said smoothly, taking a seat without waiting for permission.
Akeno, standing beside Rias, raised an eyebrow at the sheer audacity.
"And you must be Naruto Bael," Rias replied, studying him closely. "I must admit, you're not what I expected."
His smirk widened. "I get that a lot."
Something about him intrigued her. He was a Bael, yet there was no arrogance in his demeanor. No desperation for validation.
Just… certainty.
She had the distinct feeling that Naruto Bael was someone who would change everything.
