High School DxD

It means that there are those who find it painful in what you call a peace.

[Fuhahahaha! This is finally your end! Chichiryuutei!]

A man dressed up as a Kaijin[1] was laughing loudly.

[What! There is no way that this Chichiryuutei will lose to the Army of Darkness!]

A tokusatsu[2] hero who looks identical to me goes through a magnificent transformation on the screen. That form is exactly the same as mine in my Balance-Breaker form.

We, the Gremory group, Irina and Azazel-sensei, are watching a video at the big hall located in the basement of the Hyoudou residence.

The programme show playing on the giant screen is a tokusatsu film called....[Chichiryuutei Oppai Dragon]. Apparently, it is a very popular hero show for kids which is currently being broadcast. Yeah, as you can guess from the title.....I’m the main character!

But it’s not like I’m the one acting, and they use an actor who has the same build as me. They also use CG to insert my face and alter it.

“......Apparently, it became very popular as soon as it was broadcast in the Underworld. The tokusatsu hero [Chichiryuutei Oppai Dragon].”

Koneko-chan, who is sitting on my lap, says that while swaying her tail. She is very knowledgeable about the shows of the Underworld.

I know that this is very popular because I was told that last time. As soon as it was broadcast, it exceeded the viewing rates of 50% and became a monstrous show. I was actually shocked. Not only a show which has me as the main character is being broadcast, but it is actually popular.

The story synopsis goes like this. The young devil who made a pact with a legendary dragon, Ise Gremory, is a hero who transforms to fight the evils which are the threats to the devils. The man who loves Oppai, and who fights for Oppai. He turns into the legendary Oppai dragon to defeat those who do evil deeds! And that’s how it goes.

I’m watching the show for the first time today, and even though I’m happy, I’m also feeling embarrassed! Now the House of Gremory has the copyright to it. From what I heard, they made quite a lot of profit from the ‘Oppai Dragon’. Something about selling merchandise and stuff..... The devils sure act fast.....

A toy-version of the Boosted Gear has been sent to me as well. And this is pretty impressive. It’s so identical that it scares me. It even has a voice added in it.....

“The Boosted Gear Scalemail which appears in this show is identical to the real thing. The skills used to recreate it are amazing.”

Kiba is eating popcorn while nodding. W-Well, even from my eyes their skills to resemble my Boosted Gear Scalemail are amazing.

[Here I come, you evil Kaijin! Tou! Dragon Kicccccccck!]

The ‘Oppai Dragon’, who is wearing armour, used his special technique superbly on the Kaijin. Flashy special explosions were used as well.

After that, the main character was in danger because of the power of the special weapon used by the enemy. Then, the heroine appeared.

[Oppai Dragon! I have come!]

The one who appeared was......Buchou wearing a dress! Obviously she wasn’t the real thing, but an actress who has the same build as Buchou and her face altered.

[Oh! Switch-princess! With this, I can win!]

Oppai dragon then touched Switch-princess’s breast! Uoooo! What is this outcome! And a Switch-princess!? Is that the name for Buchou’s character!? If I remember, it’s a name that Bikou made! It has been used officially!? The main character’s body glowed in red after touching the breast, and he regained his power.

“There is an Oppai dragon with Switch-princess on the good side. And when they are in a crisis, he turns into the invincible Oppai Dragon by touching Switch-princess’s breast!”

Azazel-sensei said that with enthusiasm.

SPANK!

And Buchou hits Sensei’s head with a paper fan.

“......Excuse me, Azazel. I heard everything from Grayfia, you know? The one who sent the idea of S-Switch-princess to the data team for the house of Gremory was you right? Thanks to that, I.....I.....”

Buchou’s face was really red, and it seemed like she was suppressing her anger.

“Who cares. I heard that since you started getting the support of the children, your popularity got higher, right?”

Sensei said that while rubbing his head.

If I remember correctly, the magazine aimed for the young people, which will be released in the Underworld, will change the name of one of its articles from “Princess Rias’s special” to “Let’s turn into Switch princess everyone!”.

“......I won’t be able to walk on the streets of the Underworld anymore.”

Buchou said that with a sigh. Even I am scared to walk on the streets in the Underworld. If I get caught by the children, they will likely point their fingers at me and say “Ah! It’s the Oppai Dragon!”.

[Who cares now. After all, you and I are the Chichiryuutei........]

There was another one here who sighed in grief. The legendary dragon, Ddraig-san, was also feeling like he didn’t care about anything now. I’m sorry Ddraig, but I think it’s fun, you know.

[Yeah, I seriously never get bored when I’m with you...... Fufufu, I will also be tagging along with you from now on after all...... Kukuku......]

Aaah, the tone of his voice is low...... I need to cheer him up afterwards...... Wait, I realised that our positions changed. Seriously, get better soon, Sekiryuutei.

“But you know, I feel proud that my childhood friend is getting famous like this.”

Said the energetic Irina. This girl seems like she is enjoying ‘Oppai Dragon’ a lot. Irina is an angel, but has blended in with the other Occult research club members. Well, she is a club member after all.

“If I remember correctly, Ise-kun loved tokusatsu hero when he was a child. I also tagged along with him and we acted as heroes.”

Irina said it while doing a transformation pose. Ah, I remember that pose. It’s the transformation pose of the hero I liked when I was a kid.

“We certainly did. Irina was a tomboy back then, and I remember you were quite naughty. And now, she is a bishoujo[3]. You really can’t predict a human’s growth.”

“Mou! Suddenly seducing me like that! So you seduced Rias-san and others like that...? Truly a frightening hidden power! I will ‘fall’! I will ‘fall’ down to a fallen-angel!”

Oh! Irina’s wings are switching on and off to white and black! P-Perhaps this is the moment when an angel becomes a fallen-angel? I heard that when angels lose to their desire or accept the devils whispers, something serious will happen. Hmm, so this happens to them huh. Seeing that, Sensei laughs heartily.

“Hahaha, don’t worry. I welcome the fallen. Plus, you are a direct subordinate of Michael. I will welcome you to the VIP seat.”

“Nooooooo! The boss of the fallen angels is encouraging me to fall! Michael-sama, please help meeeeeeeee!”

Irina started praying to the sky with teary eyes.

“But it is my pride that Ise-san is famous.”

“Yeah. It will be a good publicity for our group.”

Asia, who was next to me, and also Xenovia, seem to be enjoying it. Well, I do think that ‘Oppai dragon’ is a success. I’m shocked, and even though I’m embarrassed about it, I don’t feel bad about it either. Instead, I feel thankful for that. If I become famous like this, it will become a status for me in the future. Most of all, it seems like I will be popular with the women in the Underworld!

Gufufu! Next time I walk in the Underworld, I might be surrounded by beauties! And I might be able to take several of them to a hotel like that! My dream sure is expanding.....

Munyuu.

I can feel something soft from my baccccck! I remember this feeling! When I turned around, Akeno-san’s face appeared behind my shoulder. Akeno-san then put her face on my shoulder and whispered into my ear with a stimulating voice.

“Seducing Irina-chan is okay, but I’d be troubled if you don’t keep your promise with me.”

My cheek is colliding with her cheeks! It makes me excited! The silky and elastic skin of Akeno-san’s! It’s the best!

Asia became unpleased. Buchou also has her eyes twitching. Koneko-chan, who is on my lap, is pinching my thigh silently. It hurts. It hurts, Koneko-chan......

“Promise?”

When I asked, Akeno-san said with a smile:

“The promise to go on a date with me. Remember that you said it to me during the battle against Diodora Astaroth?”

“Ah, I certainly did say that. So you remember?”

Now that I think about it, it certainly did happen. I said it to Akeno-san on Koneko-chan’s advice. So that even counts as asking out on a date huh.

“Of course. ......Are you telling me that was a lie......?”

You look so cute when putting on a sad expression with teary eyes. This is cheating, Akeno-san!

“It w-wasn’t a lie!”

I don’t have a reason to decline it, and a date with Akeno-san seems good! I just answered like that and Akeno-san hugged me more tightly and said with a very happy voice:

“I’m so happy! Then our date will be on our next day off. Ufufu, my first date with Ise-kun.”

A date with Akeno-san, huh. It seems good, but judging from the ways the other girls are glaring at me and Akeno-san, something might happen......
