"Hm?"

"Oh my. Is that Ethan?"

"Rias, do you know him?"

"We never express ourselves but we have greeted each other on school grounds."

"Are....those swords? Whoa....the materials and structures are amazingly crafted. The blacksmith must've poured all his blood, sweat, and tears onto creating this..." Kiba tried picking it up but currents of electricity rejected his hand "ow! Akeno!"

"What? That wasn't me."

"Don't do that." Kiba reached out to the sword again only for it to be repeated "GAAHHHHHH!!!"

The electricity launches Kiba away at a considerable distance between them. The rest looked back.

"What.... are they?"

Amidst to a crazy dream, an even crazier dream happened to be processed. But what's strange is Ethan's whole body, from head to toes where non present to the situation but covered in some sort of black mist. He could not speak, no matter how hard he tried to let out one simple noise. What remained is his eyes and nose to his surprise. At least there's room to breath.

[Ha... ha... ha... damnit. No matter how hard I try, no matter how many attempts, I and my student could not handle the energy of these swords. Ironic that your creator is not so contempt of wielding such a weapon. I guess I wasn't meant for the weapon.] This delusional man noticed a figure standing behind him, shocking Ethan to his core [in my final attempt, I realized how capable you are. It's weird how only you are compatible with them...]

The mysterious man simply walked past him, patting Ethan's shoulder as a sign to relax.

[I tried, I tried, and I tried... end it.] His final words before disappearing into the bright light
~

"Hah fuck! *smacks lips twice* what a crazy dream. My back hurts. How poorly did I sleep?" Ethan gets off his bed and prepared today with some clothes "*sniff* blegh! Whooo. Smells unexquisite."

Showering, brushing teeth, mouthwash, flossing, lotion, new clothes, and fixed his hair. Ethan is finished getting himself clean, what was left is some breakfast craving. Just a spread of peanut butter on toasted bread and Ethan calls it good until lunch time. Here's a thing Elms likes to do: he toast 4 breads, spread peanut butter on them, sandwich them, stack one with the other toasted sandwich, and eat it like that. But man does it give a killer taste with it. If there was strawberry jelly, the sandwich will be godly in taste.

Is it normal to have this much back pain? A blade or something blunt did the damage ~(Ethan)

Later

"Are you guys sure you don't remember Yuma?"

"I told you, we don't know anything about her."

"I'll say it again; you never introduced her to us, and you can't possibly have a girlfriend."

"How can that be?! Her email address is right...here?"

Crazy dream. Yeah I been there ~(Ethan)

"Oi, Ethan. You remember Yuma right?"

"Why you gotta involve him into your fanatics? Guy only knows one girl he's ever been with. Leave him alone."

"Wait...Yuma? W-what do you mean? Tall guy?" Ethan describes Yuma

"Y...no! Not even close!"

"Sorry, only seen a Yuma who's tall and a guy." Ethan plugged his ears with some music

"Oh c'mon!"

"See? Guy's basically a virgin like us."

Ethan thought it was just a crazy dream until Issei has experienced the same thing. It sank his heart to a stoop level while his lungs became tighter to breath, every second became slower at pace and Elms had vision of yesterday's disaster. He was killed by a fallen angel that killed Issei. He is sweating profusely just from that.

No, it can't be real. My back was because of her... ~(Ethan)

Raynare: a fallen angel who murdered him and Issei together at a park. Left to bleed.

Welcome 'Player'

You have earned 'beginner's starter pack'

You have gained 30 status points

You have gained 3 Skills

Would you like to verify?
Y/N?

Would you like to begin Daily Quest?

Quest? What....what is this?! Why is there a screen infront of me!? ~(Ethan)

This blue screen is in the way, making it impossible to make out anyone who's heading upstairs or going downstairs. Elms tried swatting it away but his hand phases through without even knowing a girl walked past him.

"Ah. Sorry if I stood in your way." She seemed apologetic towards him, but the pervs... "ew, it's those disgusting bastards."

"Why is Ethan and Kiba favored by the entire female students?"

Um...how do I manage this? Uh, shit, um, status? ~(Ethan)

Name: Ethan Elms
Level: 1
Class: Magic Swordsman
Title: none
HP: 217
MP: 10

It...it listened. Um...show me Daily Quest ~(Ethan)

Daily Quest: preparation to become stronger

Push-ups: 0/100
Sit-ups: 0/100
Squats: 0/100
Running: 0/10km

If you complete the Daily Quest, you
Will be rewarded:
Reward 1: Status Recovery
Reward 2: +3 Status Points

....eh? ....i...is this real? You're.... ~(Ethan)

"You tryna make me lose hair?!?!" Ethan shouted at the invisible screen and students looked back at him "s...sorry, bad dream."

"You Alright? Was the dream anything horrible?"

"No, no. Just...a barber tried to ruin my hair!" Ethan excused himself

Elms sat back down and begin to decrypt this screen only he can see: It can only work if he commands a certain thing in his own head, reminds him of a RPG game, gives status points like any other RPG game, a class was given to him, and there is HP and MP. What can he do with 30 stat points? Ethan tried choosing which status is the best for him.

"Kyaaaahhhh!! It's Rias!"

"It's the crimson-queen!!"

Elms didn't pay attention to her, but Issei sure did. This discovery of a new technology is more important than a woman.

Uh...6 on strength? ~(Ethan)

Strength: 7

Holy shit. Um, 6 on agility, 10 on vitality, 4 on sense, and 4 on intelligence ~(Ethan)

HP: 430
MP: 35
Agility: 7
Vitality: 11
Intelligence: 5
Sense: 5

Ethan felt like his body has changed. It used to be an average human level of strength, and now it feels abnormal to even say what it is. Could this be a bodybuilders status in real life?

Wait, wait. If I focus too much on strength... ~(Ethan)

Ethan thought of his body turning into an actual bodybuilder, which is gross in his eyes. He shivered at the thought and only wanted a thin but still muscular body.

Is it me or....has Ethan grow in power as of right now? ~(Rias)

She only saw a presence of a regular human when looking at Ethan, yet, once those stats were applied, it grew just a tiny bit. Is it a good thing or bad thing? Elms needed to do something with this Daily Quest, plus it stated the punishment will result of incompletion. The clock still hasn't hit 12.

Just a couple classes and I can do it! ~(Ethan)

Yadda yadda yadda, Ethan has to finish this quest. Who knows what could happen to him or everyone around if the punishment went off.

"Whoa, Ethan sure runs fast."

"Hm? Look, Issei's in 3rd place while Ethan's first."

This body. Ohmygod!! Fast, not greatly though ~(Ethan)

He finished first but still had to keep going if that 10km mark were to reach. Students lifted an eyebrow as Ethan ran and ran and ran.

"Ethan, slow down. This ain't a race!"

The coach even whistled in annoyance. By the time Ethan has completed his 10km run, next up was push-ups.

"Oi, don't push yourself! You need to rest!"

"No...! ....I'm so flipping tired." Ethan pants heavily "sensei....just let me do 95 of these..."

"95? Jesus, what the hell kind of exercise routine did you pick up? Alright, fine. Just don't push yourself."

More so, this went on for about 58 minutes and 37 seconds. Just 2 minutes left before 12 could've hit. Nothing is better than the satisfaction of completing a workout (trust me. It's satisfying when you are done exercising).

"YYYEEAAAAHHHHHH!!!" Ethan shouted with all his might "god I'm tired!!"

You Have completed a Daily Quest

"Was that Ethan shouting?" Akeno questioned from outside

"Apparently so. The teacher reported about him doing 100 Pushups, squats, sit-ups, and a 10 kilometer run. All marked off in less than an hours.... which is impossible for a regular human to finish." Rias puts down her book "what happened to his body? Earlier his power grew just a tiny bit, now he did all that? Something isn't adding up."

"Maybe he was reborn a devil?" Akeno guesses since Rias had brought him back to his home

"No. Like I said, he's still a human." Rias now takes a onlook of Ethan thinking to himself "oi! Did you see that?!"

"What - what was it?"

"An aura of recovery magic. Has Ethan...no...was he a mage this entire time?!"

Ooh! My arms ain't hurting as bad no more ~(Ethan)

That is true. Recovery Magic is no joke.

"Ha, crazy kid. Good job at least. Do that again and we might be able to see some muscles here, there, there, also there, and there. Don't forget to eat as well. Sometimes it ain't about the exercise or diet, it's about how well you rest."

"I'll keep that in mind!" Ethan smiles "do i...take a shower?"

"Did you bring any shampoos?"

"Yes, brought 'em just in case."

"Ha, good boy. Now go take a shower! You stink."

Remember to take a warm shower so your muscles can relax after a long session of exercise. And now change it to cold so you can wake up!! GAAAAHHHHHH, COLD!!! ~(Ethan)

Shiver me timbers! Is what a saying goes. Ethan teeth rattled for a few quite minutes after putting up the same uniform.

"Nice job with the whole 'going overpowered' exercise. What made you do it?"

"I made a bet." Ethan replied "and uh...I lost."

"Huh. What kind of bet was it?"

"A bet I shouldn't say on school grounds." He walked off, trying to get away from Akeno

"Did you have fun taking a shower?"

Elms responded bluntly as he was asked, because this aura of swooning guys is not effective towards him. Akeno even tried to flirt with him.

3 status points I have....hmmmm....let's put them on sense ~(Ethan)

Sense: 8

That's better ~(Ethan)

His ears picked up voices meters away from them. A few were talking about the economics about what makes the world go round, one joked that it was gravity. True on that part but it's the trading system a country does. Another where three perverts are going off about discovering a peephole in the women's changing room.

Oh boy. This seemed like it was a bad idea ~(Ethan)

"Ethan, is everything alright with you? I've been talking for about a minute but no words came out of your mouth." Akeno somehow tried zapping Ethan for his attention, but reaction wise...felt quick

"Was that you?" Ethan questioned

"Me what?"

"Nothing." He figured it was just a hunch "I'm late for class!"

For whatever reason, her fingertip contained energy flowing, and sparkled like lightning. His hair stood up as a sign of danger when Akeno reaches for his neck, sending a message to the brain, and that's when the hand came to work.

"I saw Ethan rushing towards class, what happened between you two?" Koneko sighed "is he one of your targets?"

"Not just that....he also instinctively moved when I was about to zap him."

"Is a new devil born?"

"Rias debunked that statement. When we found him lying on the ground with two swords....Ethan still remains as a human."

Chilling on a desk, Ethan's lunch was just packaged sandwich. A Italian Herb & cheese bread, with BLT. Thing is, Ethan bought if off of Subway on the way to school. Still freshly baked after two classes.

Goodness, this is delicious. Should I buy this for tomorrow? ~(Ethan)

You have obtained a key

Would you like to verify?
Y/N?

Yes...? ~(Ethan)

Name: Kuoh's gateway to hell
Rank: E
Item: key
Welcome to the starter area for the player.
This can drastically help the Player's growth
As well as his physique. Let the description
Scare you, as monsters will appear in this dungeons

.....excuse me? Wha...this tiny thing can create monsters? ~(Ethan)

Good to know and not good to know as well. So Ethan will face challenging species in this dungeon. But will that be right now during school? If so, people around him are going to question his disappearance. Safe to use it after school.

[Whoa Ethan just vanished!]

[Hey, you sit in front of him! What happened?]

[Call the police!!]

[Sensei!! Ethan's missing!!!]

Just thinking about it sends shivers down his spine. He sighed under his breath. Oh man, having the entire school get on your back because you vanished is gonna be a hassle.

"Can i... use it after school? That's a question an answer should be given...." Ethan asked this screen

It ain't responding, so Ethan can do it after school when no students are left.

"Ethan is focusing too much." Rias peaks at his classroom

"On what?" Akeno joined this stakeout

Why do I get the feelings there are eyes on me? ~(Ethan)

Anyhow, this key is shaped simple styled treasure key but dyed in reddish color. Rias squinted her eyes on the object...

"A key. What use can he do with that key?"

"Perhaps opening a treasure his late girlfriend left." Akeno nodded at her response, proving it's worth

I guess. Wait, how can I put it back? SYSTEM, HOW DOES THIS SHIT WORK!?!?! ~(Ethan)

Maybe a command will try to hide it - no, no, that didn't work. How about - no, that didn't work either. Students reacted to this weird scene in front of them. Whatever Ethan tried doing freaked them out.

Great, now the school thinks I'm a weirdo ~(Ethan)

Inventory got called out and this is the last resort to hiding an object, so he takes the key and reached inside. Elms discovered an interesting and nonsensical way of hiding something. It sorta felt empty and cold when dropping off his key to the inventory.

So that's how it works. Good to know, now does it have unlimited space slots? ~(Ethan)

He can do magic tricks with them to fool regular citizens! Just a quick license and Ethan will be able to do tricks with it.

Hm? Swords? Two in here. Wow. Maybe I'm just lucky with this starter pack....ha! ~(Ethan)

"Did you see that?! His key vanished into thin air!!"

"I can hear you!!" Ethan shouted "are you spying on me!?"

"He's onto us! Akeno, run!" Rias takes off, leaving Akeno behind

"President...." Akeno slightly turns back her head "Ethan...hi....do you need anything?"

"*clears throat* I have several questions..."

After school

"Akeno, were you caught?" Rias asked

"Why yes! You abandoned me to get a scolding from someone younger than me! I felt like a kid when he spoke to me!"

"For a human, Ethan sure is scary when it comes to words. Heck, a debate between him and my brother could go on for days as other Senators write down their way of thinking." Rias tightened her tie as to professionally move onto a next topic "anyhow, Akeno, Kiba. I need you two to keep an eye out on Ethan for the entirety of the day. Wherever he goes, you follow him. Things are getting interesting with him."

"What about the dragon boy?" Akeno reminded

"Issei...isn't the main topic, for now. Focus on Ethan beforehand. I have a feeling both will overcome their obstacles in their own way." Rias replied "but what is this gut feeling that one of the two will greatly surpass others?"

"Do you think of that? I mean...I'm gonna wait until I see it with my own eyes." Kiba responded, giggling

Ethan said to himself that no one stays after school beside club activities, and they may be on the other side of the building. That's at least enough information no one is gonna spy on Ethan. He took out the key and...where does he put it? Surely a keyhole will pop out of nowhere, right?

I'm confused how this works. Keyhole...keyhole...there's no way of putting this in! ~(Ethan)

You have arrived at the gateway to
Hell. A key is needed to access the
Dungeon. Would you like to use
Key?

Yes ~(Ethan)

A sudden keyhole appeared to signal its use, and Ethan slowly enters the key. Not knowing what'll happen, safely approaching it can or could do something.

Huh. Just like that and it's already in ~(Ethan)

Waves of energy suddenly emerged from thin air, shocking Ethan at a considerable distance. The portal-ish thing had this aura of danger emitted, telling him to run away. What finally arrives is a miniature black hole spewing out blue and white streaks of lightning, much like a portal from any other RPG game. What's special about this is that it's real, not a fake player's get to see
