Chapter 396: An Unexpected Date
—
For the next three days, nothing unusual happened. The devil princesses in the school were seemingly avoiding him; after spying with the Jogan for a bit, he realized they were unsure of what to do, still in their planning phase, so they let him be.
So instead of focusing on those girls, he focused on his nighttime grind. He visited Christian churches and Jew synagogues, which were not too important but not too insignificant either. He was purposefully avoiding the Islam Mosques since all of them that weren’t too insignificant were honestly too much work for its worth. He decided to rather deal with them after reaching 10% Sync, which should change his aura.
Speaking of his progress.
===
Progress Bar: | 6.02%
===
It seemed when he claimed that Romanian church, led by that priestess from Goblin Slayer – a mystery he didn’t understand – along with the deeds he did with the others that night, gave 3% at once only because it was his first time doing those. Because in the last two days, he hadn’t even managed a total of 2% growth doing this hassle.
Not that he hadn’t expected it. When he purified Raynare, the notification did imply he only got a whopping 1% for purifying her because she was his first Fallen Angel to cure. If it gave 1% every time he would purify a fallen, he would have hunted down 100 fallen to cure by then. That would make this expedition too easy, so obviously the Game didn’t work like that.
‘So I need to find alternatives. Things that would give me that “first time done” benefits.’ Neji muttered in his thoughts while swiping pages of the manga in his hand. ‘I am pretty sure defeating a devil would count. However, I think defeating a high-class devil for my “first” would give me more progress than defeating a weak one. So I need to hold on to this.’
Of course, there were other ways to ‘defeat’ a devil that wasn’t a battle. For example, Sona Sitri was a chess addict, and while Neji wasn’t that good of a player, he could become good overnight thanks to his WIS and INT. So he decided to do just that tomorrow, challenge her to a match, or make her challenge him, and then completely crush her.
‘Another way should be fucking them into the bed. But, uh, I am not in the mood.’
He was pretty sure grabbing a few hyper-powerful devil females and fucking their brains out, making them submit to him, God, who was their enemy, would give decent progress. Sadly, he truly was not in the mood.
If those who knew him heard him, they’d chain him up while yelling that Neji has been replaced. However, the thought of mindless sex truly felt like a bother right now.
In either case, he decided on the chess game for now. Today was Sunday, there was no school, and as it was nighttime, he had finished his nighttime grind as well. Neji was currently in a manga shop, though he wasn’t exactly here to waste time.
Back in the Hero Academia world, all the mangas were of that era, boring ass bullshits. There was pre-quirk-world stuff too, but they were not available in those shops, one had to search the depths of the net, like what Kimi used to do, to find those manga. However, in this world, all the manga that Neji was familiar with back from his first world was available.
Now, he was here to pick up some manga volumes. Dressed in a casual fit, with hair short but wavy, instead of straight and falling down by the eyes that he wears when playing teacher, he was reaching a manga with the cover reading – “Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken”.
This and Bleach were the worlds left after this. He needed to prepare for them, so reading through the manga one last time seemed like a good choice.
For the past hour, he was roaming around the store, the largest manga store in Japan, conveniently located in Kuoh City, larger than a regular library.
Thanks to his high stats, he was shooting through the pages, sometimes receiving gazes from the very few readers still in the shop, but in the end, they only minded their own business. Until when he was at the last volume of Tensura, this time taking a bit of time as he read the latest chapter slowly.
“Checking out Japanese culture, are we?” it was a feminine, gentle voice that inquired.
Turning to the side, Neji suddenly knew why a small town like Kuoh had such a big manga store. Because the red-haired devil princess, obsessed with Japanese culture, was living here. This shop was probably run by a human who made a pact with the devil and had notified her about him a while ago.
“Good morning,” said Neji, even as it was 2 AM at night. “I am, yes. A friend recommended this, so I was checking it out. Surprising seeing the Gremory Princess here at this time, but I guess nothing fazes a hyper-powerful devil such as your Highness.”
One thing Neji couldn’t help but add was related to her clothes. “Quite the outfit, Miss Rias. Once again, the benefits of being a strong devil, to have the guts to be out this late at night while wearing that.”
Rias looked like a bomb. Wearing a white off-shoulder outfit, leaving the top of her breast for everyone to see, it was covered by a black vest. Her navel was visible, and from right under it started her tight white leggings, somehow pronouncing her already massive thighs and ass.
