After completing the admission procedures, Roy and Ayase visited the dormitory.
Once they had listed the necessary daily supplies, they left Hagun Academy to go shopping.
Although it was just a simple errand run, for Ayase, it felt like a date, which left her very satisfied. The only regret she felt was that she couldn't continue sharing a room with Roy.
After setting up his dormitory, Roy moved out of the Ayatsuji household and officially settled into the school.
It was a necessary move.
If he continued to live at Ayase's house, her father might actually force them to get married on the spot. Ayase's affection for Roy was so obvious it practically overflowed from her eyes.
Roy didn't want to be tied down with the title of married the mont he entered school. Wouldn't that prevent him from making friends with other girls in this world?
The moral landscape of this world was different from DxD.
If he wanted to build a harem here, he couldn't be too blatant; he needed a certain level of finesse.
After Ayase helped him tidy up the room and left, Roy took a mont to update his Falna.
In the battle with Kurono Shinguuji, Roy had gained a fair amount of Excelia. However, compared to his previous speed of leveling, it was much slower this ti.
The power gap between him and Kurono wasn't actually that large, so he couldn't gain the massive feat bonus that ca from defeating an enemy far stronger than himself.
Coupled with the fact that Roy had already risen to Level 6, the Excelia gained from a single battle, even against a forr World No. 3, wasn't enough to push him over the edge imdiately.
Still, he could feel a slight increase in his strength.
"Perhaps when I advance to Level 7, I will be able to officially enter the transcendental class."
Under the standard Falna system, an ordinary Level 7 would be roughly equivalent to an Ultimate-Class Devil. However, Roy was different.
His skill, required him to accumulate far more Excelia per level than an ordinary adventurer—two, three, or even five tis the standard amount.
This ant his base stats were monstrously high. If Roy reached Level 7, his raw power without using any trump cards would be comparable to a Maou-Class powerhouse.
Roy estimated his ranking speed.
Given the current situation, if he wanted to advance to Level 7, he would need to defeat at least five opponents on Kurono's level.
And that was a best-case scenario. In reality, he might need to hunt down even stronger world class opponents.
'It's ti to earn so Dinsional Points.'
For the mission, Roy had currently only completed the first stage. There were still 500,000 Dinsional Points waiting to be claid.
After finishing breakfast, Roy began to wander around Hagun Academy.
The Ayatsuji Dojo had already begun renovations, and Ayase needed to supervise the work, so Roy didn't bother her. He chose to explore the campus alone.
The early morning air still carried the chill of early spring, but the temperature difference had no effect on Roy. Because it was still technically vacation and quite early, the campus was quiet, with only a few scattered figures.
After wandering for a while, a figure at the school gate caught Roy's eye.
It was a well-proportioned young man, standing about 1.75 ters tall. His muscles were lean and smooth, indicating a high level of physical fitness and regular training.
He looked to be about sixteen or seventeen, with ssy black hair and dark eyes. He wore a simple black undershirt.
Although his facial features were soft and his gaze gentle, giving the impression of soone easygoing, his entire being exuded an extraordinary sharpness.
He felt like a sword that could be unsheathed at any mont.
As if feeling Roy's gaze, the young man turned to look.
Their eyes t.
"Good morning," Roy smiled at him. He didn't avoid the boy's gaze but greeted him naturally.
"Ah?!"
The boy seed surprised by Roy's friendly attitude. He blinked, then showed a shy, humble smile. "Good morning, classmate."
"My na is Roy, and I'm a freshman at Hagun Academy," Roy said, walking toward him and introducing himself.
"My na is Ikki Kurogane."
The black haired boy showed so embarrassnt when ntioning his grade. "I'm... also a first-year student."
Unlike Roy, he wasn't a true freshman. For various political and academic reasons, he had been forced to repeat the grade. Facing a new student who was suddenly so kind to him made Ikki feel a little uneasy. Usually, people avoided him.
Hearing the na, Roy sighed internally.
It really is Ikki Kurogane.
It seed his intuition was correct.
"Hello."
Roy extended his right hand.
Seeing this, Ikki wiped his slightly sweaty palm on his clothes in embarrassnt, then reached out and shook Roy's hand.
[Congratulations Host! Obtained 500,000 Dinsional Points.]
Roy let go of his hand after the system notification sounded in his ear. He smiled and asked, "Are you a swordsman?"
eting Ikki's surprised gaze, Roy pointed to Ikki's hands. "The aura around you... and your hands. You hold a sword all year round, don't you?"
"Yes," Ikki nodded, surprised by the observation.
"I can feel it. Your attainnts in the way of the sword are extrely high," Roy praised sincerely.
Ikki Kurogane might lack mana capabilities, but his kendo attainnts were ridiculously high. Even without knowing the ani, Roy could sense it.
It was the recognition of a warrior to another. In a sense, Ikki's understanding of swordsmanship was no less than Roy's.
"Are you a swordsman too?" Ikki asked. After being praised, he was a little embarrassed, but his eyes lit up.
It was rare for him to et soone who looked at his skill rather than his rank.
"Certainly," Roy nodded.
Hearing this, Ikki looked at Roy with a friendly expression. It was nice to et a kindred spirit.
At that mont, a black luxury car drove up the road from the mountain base and stopped at the school gate.
The window rolled down.
"How did you two end up together?"
Kurono Shinguuji poked her head out from the driver's seat, looking at the two young n with curiosity.
