DxD Chapter 12: Peerage x Proposition
🕑 Added 2024-03-21 18:07:27 +0000 UTC...It finally went down. It took me 3 hours to finally get it down. Thankfully the effect got less intense over time after taking the potion but that didn't change the fact that I busted it 5 times. It was a lot of man milk too, at least way more than I did in my previous in life in one shot.
Now, I am faced with a moral conundrum.
...Do I use my potion-enhanced sperm as a potion ingredient? It has the fortify health attribute on it after all.
...No, even I have limits of what I am willing to endure the triumph of alchemy. I may be willing to mutilate my own body but mixing my cum into my drink is a step too far even for me. To the trash it goes.
Now that I had the time to admire the effects of my elixir I was quite impressed. I felt more energetic than ever, I felt healthy, to the point I wouldn't wake with a pain in my back anymore. I also seemed to have a minor healing factory and enhanced stamina.
Taking a knife I made a shallow cut on my hand and watched as it slowly started fading away. Truly a great investment. I mean the sex drive boost is going to suck with it pairing with teenager hormones but...
Well, this was DxD no? Maybe I will be able to score in this lifetime. If Issei of all people could then I should be able to.
Anyway, right now I wanted to take a look at the mission I just completed.

____________________________
After a bit of contemplation, I decided to pick Receptive Body. For resistant I could simply not drink harmful potions, that seems like something you shouldn't do in the first place. And as for natural alchemist, I had a reason for not picking that.
I could increase the improvement speed of my alchemy skills by using the ancient and overpowered skill of working harder and smarter.
Receptive Body on the other hand was a permanent multiplier on the power of the potions I use on myself, I can't achieve that by working harder or smarter so it was the obvious choice.
After confirming my choice it had already reached midnight, and my goals for today having been met including maxing out my alchemy I decided to turn in for the night.
Because I had a feeling that I would have to some devil heiress' tomorrow. And I don't want to tackle that while also lacking sleep.
✧—•✦•—✧—•✦•—✧—•✦•—✧
The first lesson had passed with no devil confrontation making me furrow my brows in confusion. Regardless, I used the free time to catch up one some much-needed rest, there is only so much tiredness you can offset with potions.
'Perhaps I should try learning mana concealment? It shouldn't be too hard to learn with meditation after all.'
As I was entertaining such idle thoughts I suddenly noticed someone enter the classroom making almost everyone gasp and the notorious and infamous pervert trio jump out of their seat.
"W-wow! What could one of the top beauties of this school Akeno Himejima-senpai be doing here!?" Said one of the perverts in the trio, you could put a gun to my head and I wouldn't be able to tell you what their name was.
Obviously, Akeno strode right over to my seat as I made no effort to acknowledge her, just giving her a cursory raise of the eyebrow as she stood in front of my desk and bent over it slightly, making her supple and large breasts jiggle heavily.
Shut the hell up lower body. I need the upper half to think not the lower one.
"Good morning Takumi-kun. Could I borrow you for a moment?" I raised my eyebrow again, of course, I knew why she wanted me to come with her but she didn't know I did so I would play the part.
"Sure, but what for Akeno-san?" I smiled lightly in an attempt to appear more friendly.
"Well, I need you to come with me to the Occult Research Club Building. It's about yesterday, the president(Buchou) wants to meet you." I nodded and got up from my seat, following her lead as I ignored the trio cry about something something me getting the attention of Akeno or whatever.
I wanted to just shoot them a smug smirk and say seethe but I am not that childish.
...Okay, I am that childish, I just don't want to appear that way in front of Akeno at the moment.
As we were walking I decided to breach the topic.
"So. Is the Occult Research Club president also a devil?" This got me a nod from Akeno who faltered slightly in her stride before picking up speed again.
"Yes, you seem to well informed Takumi-kun, Rias-buchou will explain when we get there." I shrugged my shoulders.
"Well, after finding out devils also live in this town I of course did my homework." After that, we settled into light conversation as Akeno led me around the frankly massive school. Occasionally some wind would pick up and make her skirt flutter, allowing me a peek at her black lace panties.
I did not even bother hiding my gaze and Akeno knew, giving me a knowing and seductive smirk whenever the wind picked up. I am half certain she was the one doing it at this rate.
She was teasing me, and it was working. One time she dropped "something" and bent over to pick it up from the ground, exposing her thanks to the tiny skirts of Kuoh Academy. Safe to say that the sight was very stimulating, but that smile of hers felt like it was challenging me.
But I still stared. I have no shame. Plus this is DxD, a little perversity is tolerated, encouraged even considering how far that guy was able to get with solely his obsession with boobs.
At least it did not take too long for us to reach the clubroom, and if the fact that all other clubs get one room while the Occult Research Club gets a large ass building doesn't tip you off that something is up with them then I don't know what would, that building is the size of an entire smaller school.
Entering inside she led me to what I assume was the main clubroom, inside I saw multiple people sitting surrounding one girl sitting on a desk with her legs crossed with her hand propping up her chin.
She had long ruby-like red hair cascading down to her hips with gem-like teal eyes, she had a curvy voluptuous body and looks all supermodels would envy. She wore the standard Kuoh Academy Girls uniform that highlighted her curves and put her smooth long legs on display, her skirt riding up her thighs slightly, but not enough to expose her.
Rias Gremory. The sister of Lucifer and the Red Haired Princess of Destruction. The main heroine of High School DxD was before me.
"Good morning Katsuragi-kun. Welcome to my clubroom, my name is Rias Gremory. And as you might expect, I am also a devil like Akeno." Rias smiled in a charming manner as she introduced herself, I could tell that she practised this speech.
Well, I am a sucker for theatrics myself.
Like a magician, I clasped one hand over my chest as I gave her a bow, like one expect from a noble.
"Pleasure to meet you Miss Gremory. I am Takumi Katsuragi, a humble magician and alchemist." I could see my manner impress them somewhat while Koneko just shot me a weirded-out look.
"Take a seat Katsuragi-kun, there is no need for formalities you can just call me Rias. I would like to know Katsuragi-kun. What do you know about Devils?" Her gaze scanned over me as she shifted her legs slightly, exposing her sheer red panties slightly, thankfully my legs were crossed.
"Well, I know enough, like the fact I am talking with the princess of the underworld, also my apologies for not contacting you sooner about my presence here. But, I guess you did not bring me here for just chatting purposes right? You can also call me Takumi, I don't mind." I asked with my posture being the picture of calm as Akeno put some tea in front of me, her breasts jiggling heavily as she did so, breasts seemed to have their own law of physics in this world.
"Indeed, I will be blunt, I am sure you are acquainted with my peerage members Koneko my rook and Akeno my queen, and there is also my knight Kiba. You know what peerages are correct?" As she said that both Koneko and Kiba gave me a nod that I returned.
"Indeed, the pyramid slavery scheme of the underworld. I admit it was certainly an experience learning about it. What about it?" I said dropping the formal speech.
"I see, Takumi-kun, would you join my peerage and become a part of my family?" Rias said, resting her chin on the palm of her hand while leaning forward, her legs parted slightly to give me a glimpse of her panties as she gave me a captivating smile.
I smiled softly.
She really had zero fucking idea on how to recruit someone huh?
That was a terrible pitch.
I raised an eyebrow at her.
"And why should I want to do that?"
"Well, I am glad you asked. Becoming a devil comes with a lot of benefits, you become virtually ageless, you have access to demonic power, can fly and understand all languages. Also, if you join my peerage I can support you in your Alchemy and research among other things."
I motioned for her to go on.
"I treat all of my peerage members like family so you don't have to worry about that. Besides if you join my peerage and become a devil one day you may even be promoted to a high-class devil yourself someday getting a peerage and noble title yourself. What do you think?"
Her tone slipped into a more sultry one as she mentioned the other things part while I simply looked at her unperturbed my face not changing the slightest.
Did she really think that little speech would convince me? Sure it might work on someone whose brain is in their lower body like Issei but not for me.
Honestly, I am a little disappointed.
"That sounds tempting, but I refuse."
A/N: You know I had to slip in the I refuse there.
Takumi may or may not join her peerage but he for sure will make it worth his while by milking all the benefits he can. Rias is not prepared for recruiting someone like Takumi who is actually experienced in negotiation and knows his own worth.
This is what happens when all of your peerage members just fall into the palm of your hand with minimal effort.
Also, the plot of DxD is getting near, so Takumi will have to prepared.
That aside, what did you think about this chapter? What is your stance on the Gremory peerage?

Personally, Rias’ peerage is the best to join in the long term. She may or may not be lazy depending on your interpretation, but she has connections and the team is packed with potential, which they do begin to use when they must. Humans also seem to have fairly slow growth in DxD, so by the time he’s strong the world may have been destroyed since the entire story would have gone by if he’s on his own unless you power up his sacred gear to a lot more gamer like.

...Pedo...? Everyone in the show is legal I don't get that part. But I do have to agree to an extent, if you are writing a fanfiction of the show why would you avoid the characters? I dislike it when fanfics completely ignore the established characters and focus on Oc's(Which is also why I try my absolute best to not create any of them besides the bare minimum)

Damn. I read all the comments here, and seems that some people want a DxD fic without the DxD part.. Ravel? Pedo much? Why not go non-harem with little Koneko too? Hahaha... Tbh, joining Rias' peerage is the best choice here, since it gives him a perfect opening for his purposes, along with the backing he needs. He doesn't even have a Longinus, so what can he do? As for the other sides.. Fallen Angels would kill him, while Angels are puritans without a system. As a human, his growth is limited and slow, so at this rate, unless he kills Issei and takes the Boosted Gear for himself, he is fucked. We cannot allow Rias to be taken by someone else, and i am of the opinion that if you bother writing a DxD fanfic, you should focus on the characters in the fic, not try to be original in a Universe that isn't much aside from hot pervy women. If you want a non-harem story with a complex world building and shit, read Elden Ring fics or some stuff like that. Why even bother reading DxD fics if you want to avoid the main cast? For whom? Ravel? Or who?
