Kapitel 6: High Human's Traits and First Job.

When Vander got a look at Grayfia he started to knock on his head to try to awaken any memories. Grayfia watched him do that as his face looked like he was trying to think.

"Does he do that often?"

Rias nodded.

"It seems to help him to remember things he forgets. He does have 10 soul-bonded familiars and as you know that causes soul damage. I am more impressed he is still sane despite that."

Grayfia walked in front of Vander as she looked into his green eyes.

"You can stop knocking on your head?"

Suddenly he remembered who she was.

"I know you now, you are Grayfia Lucifuge."

"That is right. Do you know anything else?"

Vander shook his head.

"Nope, only that a Stray Devil I killed talked about you before. I forget things often so I just remembered right now."

"I see. Rias, if can tell he is human, but why is he with you? Do you intend to turn him into a Devil?"

Rias shook her head.

"I would love to have him in my peerage, but there is a problem. He is both strong, fast, and magically talented. Not to mention he is stronger than even me and he has 10 soul-bonded familiars. I am not strong enough to have him in my peerage. I was going to ask you if you could have him in yours, but what are you doing here though?"

Grayfia looked at Rias with a serious look.

"Your father and Lord Phoenix have come to an agreement."

Hearing that made Rias extremely angry.

"I have told him that I will pick someone myself."

Grayfia would rather she not marry him either, but as was Devil Law.

"Rias, this is just how things are. Now about Vander I can tell you now that I am interested. Most Devils can't even make one Soul contract not to mention 10. Vander, do you wish to be a Devil that much?"

Vander thought about it and nodded.

"I am, but I would not say it is a necessity. Rias was the one who wanted to turn me, but she was honest with me. I am stronger than her rook and faster than her knight. I am not as good a mage as her queen though so she thinks a queen piece is the best for me."

Grayfia looked at Akeno who shook her head.

"If I am being honest I think that Vander will surpass me in magic. His reserves are massive because of his 10 familiars. Soul-bonded familiars are special as the connection will increase the max mana amount depending on their strength.

From what we have seen from the first two, they are real monsters with talent. One of them is much faster than Kiba and it nearly killed me by mistake. Vander's soul is also powerful to be able to withstand 10 such contracts."

Hearing that made Grayfia surprised as Kiba was a rather talented knight. She looked at Vander with much more interest than before.

"Can I ask you to summon the one that nearly killed her? I guarantee you I am much stronger than anyone here, so I can subdue your pet without hurting it if needed."

He nodded.

"You won't have to as I have succeeded in taming him."

He walked to the open space that was used for teleportation and opened a magic circle.

'Ripper.'

From it appeared the giant Indoraptor that roared at Grayfia with wariness. His toe claws tapped the ground as the shadows around the room began to writhe and grow. Seeing her own shadow begin to grow and wrap around her made even Rias shiver.

'He could even do this?'

"Easy Ripper."

Ripper grunted as he lowered his head above Vander's shoulder. Vander wrapped his head around his neck and rub his face affectionately against Ripper's. Akeno was left speechless at the sight.

'Is that the same creature that nearly killed me?'

As for Grayfia she walked in front of Ripper without any fear. Her own shadow did wrap around her, but she just ignored it. She looked right into the hybrid's eyes which were squinted. He got right in her face as his mouth began to open. Grayfia only stared with not a shred of fear that made Ripper back off a bit.

Grayfia looked at Vander with some respect in her gaze.

"I am truly impressed you have gained the respect and loyalty of a creature like him. You Vander alone are already at the peak of the High class and about to break into the Ultimate Class. When I look at you I don't see a human, but something superior. I will take you in right now if you want?"

She pulled out a Queen Piece that glowed in dense Demonic Power. Seeing it made Rias surprised as that single piece had more power than even she had available and she had a lot as a noble.

"I know it is a mutation queen, but why is it so strong? I think that one piece is stronger than all of the ones I have. It makes the one I used on Gasper look like a flicker."

Grayfia explained a little-known fact about the Evil Piece system.

"The power of the Evil Pieces can be strengthened depending on how strong you are at the time of acquiring them. I denied having them for centuries as I never felt the need to have them until 20 years ago. By then I was already in the Satan class so, of course, my Evil Pieces will be much stronger than yours.

Only something like this is worthy of you Vander. It is up to you if you wish to become a Devil."

Vander hesitated for a few seconds before he heard the voice of Persephone in his head. She was not just explaining something to him as she needed to inform him of something important.

'If you are worried about getting weaker by turning into a Devil do not worry. The High Human species is extremely powerful and adapts to any foreign DNA added to it. You will be more like a High Human with boosted Devil traits. Now to the main reason, I found out a Evil God will send his own champion in a month. Kill them for me.'

Her voice cut out, but the message was delivered in less than a second. Now that his question was answered he nodded to Grayfia's question.

"I accept being a Devil. How do we do this?"

Rias was going to say he had to kneel and accept the Evil Piece, but Grayfia found that tedious. The magic circle opened under Vander as Grayfia made the Evil Piece float in front of his chest.

"In the name of Grayfia Lucifuge, I ask if you wish to join my peerage."

"I accept."

The Mutation Queen entered his chest and the moment it did Vander felt the Demonic Power flood through his body and soul. It was like a Tidal wave of power running through his body trying to forcefully turn him into a Devil.

Instead, every one of his High Human cells awoke, and like little black holes began to drain the Demonic Power that was flooding his body. His DNA which looked like a quadruple helix began to change and grow.

The sound of cracking bones and tearing muscles made Grayfia worry. She had never used one of her pieces before so she felt that they might have been too strong for Vander to handle. Instead, before her eyes, Vander's body seemed to grow a bit more muscular and a tiny bit taller.

When he opened his green eyes they were still green, but they looked like those of a reptile. A large pair of black scaled wings emerged from his back that looked more like those of a black dragon. Two giant spines emerged from the wings looking like weapons.

A dragon-like tail emerged from his tail bone with a razor-sharp pointed end. Once his body was improved he felt his very soul begin to get stronger as the Demonic power began to be produced naturally by his own body.

He controlled the connection between his familiars to only give Ripper and Terror Demonic Power. As such, his other familiars were not going to get stronger without his permission. His other pets felt threatened that Terror and Ripper would be gaining power while they were trapped.

Vander exhaled as he looked at his wings that did not tear his clothes.

"Is that normal?"

Grayfia looked at his wagging tail and his scaled wings.

"No. Vander are you part Dragon?"

He shrugged.

"I don't think I am, but is there a way to check?"

Grayfia nodded.

"Another dragon call usually tell. Now, can you retract your tail and wings?"

Vander focused on them and his wings retracted and so did his tail. They did not even leave a hole which made him impressed.

"Now that is impressive."

Grayfia had to agree as she was looking at Ripper whose veins had a bright red glow to them. The shadows in the room were getting wild and she knew that his pets would benefit from the transformation.

"Now that you are my first peerage member. Your paycheck will arrive at the end of the month. 20,000 dollars every last day of the month. Also, your medical care is paid and you can stay free at any location owned by the Gremory family, on Earth of the Underworld.

You can teleport to and from the Underworld without having to take the official routes. You also get a 40% discount when buying from any business owned by the Gremory family along with access to our library. Anything else?"

Hearing that made Vander far happier.

"Great can I drop out of school?"

Here was the bad news that Vander needed to hear.

"I am afraid not. it is required that all Devils in Kuoh Academy graduate on time. If your grades are too low you will be forced to join a study camp until you catch up. From what I can tell, you have not been doing your assignments since you started school a month ago."

"I beg your pardon."

He thought he heard wrong which made Ripper nudge him with his head. Grayfoa smile politely as she repeated herself.

"You have to pass and if you don't you will be forced to make up your missing work. Last I checked, there is a test in a week and if you fail you might be kicked out. If that happens you will be forced to go through school in the Underworld which involves thousands of years of history, art, and the like. Does that sound fun?"

Rias was already laughing at the shocked look on Vander's face

'It is even funnier than I expected.'

Vander looked like his soul left his body as he thought he would have to spend even more years learning the collect history of the Devil world instead of just the boring human school.

"How many years of history do Devils have?"

Grayfia smiled gently at him.

"100,000 years."

He just about passed out as he fell to the ground in a comatose state. Ripper nudged him with his snout before licking his face and covering it in nasty drool. However, Vander did not react in the least as he did not want to spend that long learning about all that history.

Grayfia opened a magic circle under her feet as she made sure to tell Vander something.

"Good luck. Rias you will inform him of what a Devil does in our day in age."

"I got it. I am not sure how good he will be at Devil pacts as he might forget where he is going."

Grayfia teleported back to Underworld as she was going to inform her husband about her first peerage member. She still did not care about politics or the rating games so Vander was pretty much free to do as he pleased.

As long as he helped Rias a little when he needed was enough for her. As for Vander he finally got up as Ripper licked his lips ready to eat him if he did not get up.

"This is terrible. Really terrible."

He wiped the drool from his face as Rias agreed with him.

"Yeah, now you have to pay attention."

"Exactly. I was ready to live my life on the paycheck I would be getting. I am just wasting time that I could use to tame my familiars."

Akeno shook her head how dedicated he was to them.

"Can't you do that at night or in the morning?"

He shook his head.

"No, I-"

He stopped talking as he realized something.

"Not that I think about it, I have not slept in three days and I feel just fine. Do I not need sleep at all?"

Hearing that made Koneko feel bad for him.

"Sleeping is great you know."

"Not for me. Feels like a waste of time. Anyway, I got to go get ready for tomorrow. Damn, I will actually have to pay attention."

He walked out the door followed by Ripper. He did not notice that Ripper was still outside so Rias called out to him.

"Ripper is still out."

Vander looked at Ripper and nodded.

"I see, rest for now bud."

Ripper returned to the familiar space as Vander decided to head home which he remembered this time. He would have to try his best so he could hurry and graduate as he did not want to repeat school again.

That was enough for him to focus and not have to learn the long history of the Devils. Now that he had gained more power he felt it was time to visit Daisy once more.
