Mob Devil's Guide To Surviving DxD

"Boss! Boss! Boss! "

"What? What? What?"

"I got a girlfriend"

"Bullshit! "

I responded unconsciously. this is, issei we're talking about here girlfrien... oh yeah. Her?

Is it time already? She has been staking this place out for the past 2 weeks now. I just didn't know when exactly she would make her move.

"But it's true though" issei continued,.

"I finally got a girlfriend. A girl has finally seen me for my charms."

"ha ha ha!!" I burst out into laughter. Although i knew the truth of the situation, I still couldn't to help but laughing after seeing it first-hand. Not just from the third person perspective as a reader of the books, I also got to know this guy up close as a friend for the last couple years. That's why I can't help but burst out laughing.

" 'Charm' he says. Ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

"This ain't a joke dude, I seriously got a girlfriend"

"All right, all right, I'm sorry... What type of blackmail do you have on her? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha."

I still couldn't stop laughing. Someone...send help.

------- several minutes later -----

"you done?"

"Yeah I'm done, so what's the unfortunate girl's name?" I asked as if I didn't already know the answer.

"Yuuma! Yuuma Amano!" issei probably says if he was boasting to the heavens.

So it is her huh. F.u.c.k, I guess the gears of fate really aren't that easy to put a halt to. well no. I guess this is true. things like gods exist, so it stands to reason that illusionary things like Fate exists. Even if everything is not completely the same, the general outline is.

"So, a girl finally answered your confession? I'm surprised!"

"Actually... she was the one who confessed to me!"

"..... it's a trap!" again, I responded unconsciously, irrespective of my own knowledge on the matter.

"Probably is. But it's a trap I will gladly jump into. you jealous?"

"Jealous? I got rias and the whole occult research club is practically my harem. what's there to be jealous of? there's only one thing that you have that I would be jealous of and I'm content with not having it"

"something that I have? What is it? Is it my dashing good looks?"

Honestly, what's this idiot talking about? if it was the beginning of my reincarnation, I may have been jealous of some things to the point that I might have done something radical if I was immediately popped into this current year, but with my current power, position and life experience I have no reason to be jealous.

I'm already a high-class devil, you know? you should be jealous of me. A lot of people are jealous of me.

*sigh*

"anyway my good buddy, I wish you luck. enjoy yourself, and make sure you dress presentable. "

"Thanks boss"

"Also, one more thing."

I handed him two pieces of paper with all kinds of mysterious runes written on them. Both with a unique magic circle like image in the middle.

"what are these?" he asked

"Good luck charms" I quickly responded. Then, looking him straight in the eyes i activate a magic and started glowing.

[Mystic Eyes of Compulsion]

"Make me a promise, you will not lose these. You keep them on you at all points in time while you're on your date. Do not lose them. do I make myself clear?"

".. Yes.." he answered in a daze.

"Good"

I slapped him on his back and sent him on his way.

"And make sure to enjoy yourself thoroughly today. Don't forget to squeeze every bit of fun out of it."

"Thanks boss, you're the best."

*sigh*

Watching that "pure-hearted" boy run off to his fate I sighed.

"I really am a bad person. Sending my friend off to his death"

I'll make sure to apologize to him properly later.

"Is he gone?" Rias appeared from the shadows.

"yeah"

"well, if anything, mine and yours summoning circle are on him. they're both set to automatically activate once his life is in danger."

"You know, in hindsight I feel like I would have just been easier to just tell him what's going on. if it's him, getting him to join us would be that relatively easy" a ridiculous thought flows to my head.

"Yeah, you're right. guess it's too late now. great, now I'm starting to feel like a bad person too" she says. "we just have to be there in case anything goes wrong"

As if by Divine Providence, the wheels of fate begin to turn.

In the occult research club, before me and rias and the rest of the members, two summoning circles appear. Yes two. one for her and one for me. there's also one destination they lead to.

With a premeditated action, we step into the circle and disappear.

And at the destination, two people.

--one floating angel with black wings.

--one boy trying his best to survive.
