Now reading: Chapter 6 6: Rias Takes Notice! from Becoming Enkidu in DxD, a Action novel by FaaanzKun.

After putting so distance between himself and the scene, Akira glanced back over his shoulder out of reflex.

The Stray Devil had been defeated, but Koneko hadn't left the area yet. It seed like she was handling the post-battle cleanup.

She was likely disposing of the corpse, scrubbing away the blood, and erasing any mories from nearby residents. A battle that intense would've definitely made so noise—there was no way the neighbors didn't notice anything.

Still, this incident had turned out to be quite a valuable experience for Akira.

Not only had he t Koneko Toujou in person, but he'd also discovered a way to increase the progress of his Inherited Template.

Apparently, defeating a Stray Devil earned him a boost in his Enkidu Template progress. Even if it was only 0.1% per kill, it was sothing. The number was small—but crucially, it worked.

Though… he doubted it would be limited only to Stray Devils.

For now, though, they were the most realistic targets available.

Still, there was one thing he wanted to test: if killing a Stray Devil granted progress… would simply defeating one, without killing, also work?

If it did, that would be a huge win. It's always easier to knock soone out than to kill them outright.

But right now, all of that could wait—there was sothing even more important on his mind.

Food.

The cash he'd found earlier—no, not sixteen thousand, he'd misread—it was one hundred sixty thousand yen.

It wasn't an enormous sum, but it was more than enough to give him a few days of peace.

With that, he made his way to a nearby ran shop.

One hot bowl of ran, 800 yen. Cheap, delicious, and soul-soothing after a fight. Hunger really does make everything taste better.

With so tight budgeting, 160,000 yen could stretch for quite a while. But still—as a high school student with no inco—and more importantly, an isekai'd soul with no family or safety net—all living expenses fell entirely on his shoulders.

Today's al was covered. But what about tomorrow? Next week? Next month?

Even his small 1DK apartnt cost 100,000 yen a month in rent!

It was ridiculous.

He had a Legendary Inherited Template from Enkidu, the power to summon the Chains of Heaven, and a cool protagonist aesthetic—and yet, he was still worrying about rent like so broke college kid.

After filling his stomach, Akira stopped by a supermarket to grab basic groceries—rice, oil, salt, vegetables.

The apartnt he got from the system had a working kitchen and furniture, but not a single edible item.

No spices. No utensils. No soap. No shampoo. Not even a toothbrush.

And this was Japan—the land of premium prices, especially when it ca to groceries.

Vegetables? Ridiculously expensive. Even a single bundle of bok choy could feel like a luxury.

After ringing everything up, he was left with just 120,000 yen.

Akira sighed as he looked into his bleeding wallet.

One word: broke.

Once he got ho and finished putting everything away, he collapsed on the futon and let out a long breath.

"Man… Japan really is a consur's nightmare."

He'd almost bought so fruit earlier. But the mont he saw the prices, he noped out imdiately.

Especially waterlon.

One small dish of waterlon slices could cost several thousand yen.

A whole waterlon? You were looking at tens of thousands. Converted to RMB, that'd be like 500 to 600 yuan!

"Back in my old world, waterlons were cheap—you could stuff yourself until you puked…"

Ti passed.

Night eventually fell. After zoning out in front of the TV for a bit, Akira decided to get so early sleep.

Tomorrow, he had to officially enroll at Kuoh Academy.

— — —

anwhile, elsewhere…

Even though it was already late, the Occult Research Club room in Kuoh Academy's old building was still brightly lit.

Despite being located in one of the school's older buildings, the clubroom was lavishly furnished.

Elegant desks, soft sofas, a full dining table, a kitchenette, a private bathroom, even a tea room complete with fine teaware and premium snacks—everything scread "luxury."

Inside the room sat four individuals: three girls and one boy.

In the center seat was the club president—Rias Gremory. The one who led the room, and the master of the other three.

"So, Koneko-chan encountered a Sacred Gear user? And he's transferring to Kuoh Academy?" Rias asked, her crimson eyes gleaming with curiosity.

"Yes, Buchou," Koneko replied quietly.

Rias smiled—a teasing, elegant smile that only added to her allure.

With her angelic face, voluptuous figure, and flaming red hair, she was a sight to behold. Whether you were a man or a woman, it was hard not to be captivated.

Rias Gremory was the Madonna of Kuoh Academy—gorgeous, popular, and adored by all.

But beneath that beauty lay a powerful truth—she was a high-born devil. Heir to the prestigious House of Gremory, one of the 72 Pillars of the Underworld.

"My, my~ he must be quite the interesting boy, if he caught Koneko-chan's attention like that."

The soft, sultry voice ca from Akeno Hijima, her senpai with the mature onee-san vibe—and Rias's Queen.

"Un," Koneko nodded, which was more than enough to surprise both Rias and Akeno.

This was the first ti they had seen Koneko show interest in soone outside their close circle.

Even with fellow peerage mbers like Yuuto Kiba, if not for their roles, their relationship would likely be strictly professional.

"Koneko-chan, this boy… is he special?"

Rias narrowed her eyes and focused on Koneko's face.

"Yes, Buchou. I don't know why… but when I'm around him, I feel calm."

"Calm, huh…" (Rias)

"Is that weird?" (Koneko)

"Not at all. I haven't t him in person, so I can't say for sure… But if you say that, Koneko… now I'm very intrigued."

Rias slowly licked her lips, her smile deepening.
