I looked at Vali. And I mean looked. The guy had this annoying aura that screamed "fight me or I'll punch a hole through your wall just to prove a point." Then it hit me. I completely forgot this guy was a fight-craving lunatic.
MC(Thinking): Damn, I forgot this guy's hobby is violence.
I sighed. Don't get me wrong, he was strong. Like, stupid strong. Definitely not top ten—nah, he's not sitting at the same table as Great Red or Ophis—but he's no pushover either. Probably top twenty. Top fifteen if he's had his morning protein shake.
I was just about to reply to him with something slick when BOOM—Time stope and everything went black.
A few seconds later I regain composer and looked around and then-
Pooof.
Outta nowhere, we're surrounded. I glanced out the window and, yup, hoodie-wearing weirdos everywhere. It looked like a Hot Topic exploded and dropped its inventory on 30 cultists.
MC: Oh... okay. Guess we're surrounded. Cool cool cool.
But that's not even the weird part. Time—it just stopped. I blinked. No wind. Not even the sound of Issei talking about boobs for once. A miracle. Then I turned to the side.
MC: Aaaand Gasper's gone. Yup. Called it.
Azazel:"Vali."
Azazel called out, voice calm like this was just Tuesday for him.
Azazel(Pointing):"go outside and beat them up."
Vali turned his head toward me with a cold expression. You know the one that says "This isnt over" He smirked. I smirked back. Honestly, I just wanted the mf to leave already.
MC(Thinking): Bye bye, White Dragon Prick.
Vali just looked at me, and then he opened the window and yeeted himself out like this was a vacation slide. I looked and saw him transform into a power rangers cosplay Aka white dragon armor.
I stared at the mess outside. Hooded figures everywhere, looking like they just got out of a villain starter pack convention.
And then I heard a voice that shaking a bit.
Issei(Shaking): Uh, Levi? Wh-what's going on?!
Then a angic voice appeared.
Asia: Are we in danger? Should we hide?
I smiled.
MC:"Chill, I got this—y'all don't gotta stress."
Then i looked at rias and sona. I smiled and said.
MC:"Well I'm out, see ya guys."
Sona confused asked me.
Sona(Confused):"And where do you thick your going."
She sounded like a typical mother, it felt kinda nice to hear that.
I then poited down and said.
MC:"Down."
They stared at me like I was crazy. I mean, maybe I am. But also? Hoodie cultists are just walking punching bags with bad fashion taste. I started to climb onto the window.
Xenovia: Levi, what are you doing?
MC: Testing gravity and my patience.
And I jumped. Yup. Jumped right out the window like a dramatic anime protagonist. Midair, I cracked my knuckles. Landed like a feather made of steel. Looked up. 16 of them. All glaring at me. Wrong move, homies.
MC: What up, bootleg Organization XIII? You guys gonna fight or just glare me to death?
He stepped forward.
The big one.
The one who looked like the final boss of a "Discount Villain" RPG. Hoodie so oversized it looked like he robbed a blanket store. Towering over the others, fists clenched, aura screaming, "I'm the mini-boss and I eat protein powder for breakfast."
He stomped up to me.
MC: Ohhh, here comes Big Hoodie. Alright, let's dance, Snorlax.
He swung.
A wide, meaty fist—slow as a truck with a flat tire. I tilted my head slightly and let it fly right past me like a sad breeze.
MC: That all you got, Biggie Smalls?
Before he could recover, I spun—heel-first—right into his jaw. Crack! His head snapped back like he was trying to catch flies with his mouth.
MC: 1 down. 15 to go. Cue the chaos.
I rushed forward. No hesitation. No second thoughts. Just violence with style.
The first idiot threw a kick. I ducked under it, grabbed his leg, and yeeted him into his buddy like a makeshift bowling ball. Both of them crashed into the wall, whimpering like dogs that just got sprayed with a hose.
Another one screamed and charged with a dagger.
MC: You brought a knife to a Levi fight?
I kicked his wrist. The dagger flew up like a rejected firework. I roundhouse kicked him mid-scream, spinning him in the air like a carnival ride. He landed flat on his back, arms stretched like he was waiting for Jesus.
Next three came at once. I smirked.
First guy—I jumped and kicked him square in the chest, sending him back like he got hit by a motivational quote.
Second—spinning kick to the jaw. He did a pirouette. I gave him a 9 for style.
Third—I jumped, legs out, and leg-split kicked both sides of his skull at once. Dude's soul left his body like he forgot to pay rent.
MC: Five down. Keep it coming, clowns.
Two tried flanking me.
One to my left threw a punch. I caught it. Smiled.
MC: Bad choice.
I yanked him forward and introduced his face to the pavement. HARD. Like, tooth-chip-and-soul-leave-the-body hard. Then used him as a stepping stone to backflip over the other dude.
Mid-air, I grabbed Hoodie #7 by the collar and slammed him headfirst into the unconscious pile.
MC: Gotta stack 'em neatly. I'm not a savage.
Four more surrounded me. They were smarter—or at least more synchronized.
Too bad I didn't care.
MC: Alright. Time to stop playing around.
I cracked my neck. Then my knuckles. Then my back. Just for dramatic effect.
I planted my feet, pulled back my fists, and smirked.
MC: GUM… GUM… GATLING!!
I let loose.
My fists blurred. Left, right, upper, down—dozens, hundreds, a barrage of punches flying at speeds that made the wind scream. Each hit connected with a meaty smack, a cry of surprise, or the satisfying thud of cloth-on-floor.
Hoodie after hoodie dropped like bowling pins in a hurricane.
One guy actually tried to dodge.
MC: HA! You thought!
I curved a punch mid-barrage, smacked him upside the head, and dropped him like a sack of wet laundry.
Within seconds, the last guy wobbled on his feet, eyes crossed, mouth hanging open.
I tapped him lightly on the forehead.
MC: Sleep.
He collapsed.
Silence.
Fifteen guys, all face-first in the dirt. Groaning, unconscious, or regretting life decisions.
MC: Heh. Easy piece. You guys really thought this was a game?
I Yawed as I casually stepped over the last hoodie dude twitching on the pavement.
MC: Damn… y'all made good footrests. Hope that healthcare plan covers spiritual damage.
With the carnage behind me, I started walking back toward the school. Hands in my pockets. No rush. I already knew what was coming next—this whole thing was basically following the manga to the letter.
Issei, Rias, Xenovia, Asia, and Kiba would go save Gasper's awkward little vampire butt. Classic "heart-to-heart" moment. They'd all learn a lesson about teamwork, trust, blah blah blah.
MC(Smirking): Issei's gonna unlock a sword in his sacred gear. Took my man 45 chapters to get a proper blade hehe.
I then signed.
MC(Thinking): Then they're gonna squeeze in that unnecessary fanservice shot. Because of course they are. Boobs save the day, right?
I made it to the school just as the plot decided to move on.
Right on cue, the energy in the air shifted. Dramatic tension crackled like someone left the rice cooker on too long.
MC(Thinking): Aaand here comes the betrayal.
There it was—the big reveal. Vali turned, grinning like a man who just decided he didn't care about the group project. Betrayed his own side like it was just another Tuesday.
MC(Thinking): Man, this guy's so battle-horny it's a lifestyle.
I strolled toward them, zero urgency. All eyes turned to me like I just stepped onto a stage with fireworks.
Kiba spotted me first.
Kiba: "Hey, Levi!"
I lifted a hand and waved, casual as hell.
MC: Yo.
The rest of them stared, some with relief, some with that "he really walked back here like it's nothing" face.
Then I felt it. That stare. That stupid smug dragon hybrid aura closing in.
Vali floated down slowly like he was in an anime opening....Kinda looked badass if I'm being honest.
He landed in front of me. Smirking. That same "I've been waiting for this" grin plastered on his face like he was about to ask for my number, not a duel.
Vali: "Good. You're finally here."
He stepped close. Face to face. Like we were about to kiss or something.
MC: Damn bro, personal space? Take me to dinner first.
He chuckled. That cocky kind of laugh that made you want to uppercut him for existing.
Vali: "Now we can have our fight."
I smiled, slow and wide. Not a happy smile though. I just wanted to copy what he was doing.
MC(Thinking): Sorry, Issei buddy. I'm beating up your rival before you even get a chance.
Our eyes locked.Neither of us flinched. The kind of stare-down that made the whole world go quiet. I could feel the tension rise like a microwave about to explode.
Without warning, he threw a punch. I tilted my head slightly--clean dodge. Countered with a kick. He caught it, smirked. We both pushed off, sliding back like we were in a kung fu movie with a budget.
He took to the air. I sprinted forward. Midair collision.
BOOOOOM!
Fists collided. Electricity burst out, the shockwave rattled the whole block. The ground cracked into a fresh crater.
The rest of the crew backed up, shocked. Asia gasped.
Asia: "Is he going to be okay?!"
Issei chuckled like I wasn't casually sparring with a demigod.
Issei: "Yeah... even though he's an idiot, he's strong."
Back in the fight, me and Vali were clashing fists like we were trying to end each other's family trees. Each hit created a gust of wind that could've blown a nun off a mountain.
I ducked under a punch, dropped low, grabbed the cracked ground, and vaulted myself up.
MC: Say cheese, dragon boy.
Crack! My foot smashed into his masked face. He reeled back, but I didn't let up.
MC: GUM GUM PISTOL!
I shouted, my arm stretched, infused with Haki. The punch slammed into his face—mask shattered like glass in an anime OP. The explosion of force sent him skidding.
Azazel's jaw hit the floor.
Azazel: "DID HE JUST STRETCH HIS ARM?!"
The others snorted.
Kiba: "I've seen it so much, I kinda forgot how weird that is."
Rias: "Yeah… that's actually true."
Vali wiped the broken mask from his face, then chuckled like I just made his day.
Vali: "You're more than I could've asked for."
MC: And you are way too horny right now, man.
He laughed louder, then we clashed again. Faster. Harder. He threw a storm of punches.
I dodged every single one.
MC: Hehe… come on. Try and touch me. You throwing hands or confetti?
He gritted his teeth and threw more. I kept weaving through his attacks like I had Ultra Instinct on tap. But then...
Something felt off.
We kept fighting, but my body… slower. Heavier.
Weaker.
Vali grinned.
Vali: "Hehe… you finally realized, huh?"
His palm began to glow like a mini sun. I staggered, breath caught in my throat.
Xenovia: "What's happening to Levi?!"
Azazel: "That's Vali's 'Dividing gear.' He splits his opponent's power in half… drains 'em dry."
Panic hit the sidelines. The squad started worrying. But me?
I smirked.
Vali launched toward me, ready to finish it—
And flew backward mid-air like he got sucker-punched by a ghost.
His eyes widened.
Vali: "What the—?!"
MC: Heh. You're not as dumb as you look.
I released a wave of Haki so thick the ground shivered. Dust flew up. Windows cracked.
I raised my hand slowly, lightning crackling around me.
MC: Guess you're the right one to test this on…
I grinned, raised my arm to my mouth—
And bit down hard.
MC: Hehe…
My arms started swelling—like, actually inflating—and not in a "hit the gym" way. My muscles ballooned, veins bulged, and Haki shimmered over every ich. Steam hissed from my skin like a boiling kettle, and my body expanded, wrapped in smoke like a damn boss reveal in a game.
Everyone froze.
Xenovia: "W-What's happening to him?!"
No one answered.
They couldn't.
Weird black tribal-like marks crawled across my chest, shoulders, arms—glowing like ancient runes. The smoke coiled around me like a dragon protecting its hoard. It was quiet.
Then it cleared.
Dead silence.
Even the birds stopped chirping like they knew something biblical just showed up.
Issei wiped his eyes Like if he was seeing things.
Issei: "What the FU---…"
Kiba just stared, jaw on the floor.
Vali? Man was silent, actually silent. No grin. Just watching.
I cracked my oversized knuckles, grinned wide, then shouted it from the depths of my soul.
MC: "GEEEEEAAARRRR… FOOOOUUURRRRR!!!"
I didn't give anyone time to clap or scream or process. I just hopped
Vali: "What kinda transformation even IS that?! You look like a balloon with abs!"
I didn't answer. I just moved.
One second I was standing there.
Next second?
BOOOOOM!!
MC: GUM GUM KONG
My fist collided with his chest before he could blink, sending him flying through the school like he was shot out of a cannon. The whole wall shattered like it owed me money.
Everyone's eyes nearly popped out.
Kiba dropped his sword. Xenovia gasped like someone proposed. Rias covered her mouth.
Azazel: "THAT'S ILLEGAL."
I wasn't done. I flew after him, cutting through the air like a missile. His body hit the dirt, skidding, and I landed like a meteor, dust flying everywhere. His armor was cracked—badly.
Vali groaned and stood up, shaking. Still smiling like a maniac.
Vali: "Hehe… nice. Very nice."
His dragon wings unfurled, spreading wide. Blue energy crackled around him as he launched forward.
I didn't flinch.
I didn't move.
I disappeared.
Vali: "What?!"
I reappeared behind him like a horror movie jump scare.
MC: "Hey."
CRACK!
My both of my palm's slammed into his chest like a steel bat. His body spiraled through the air like a lawn chair in a tornado. Pieces of his armor exploded off mid-flight. He crashed so hard the crater looked like someone summoned a meteor.
He didn't get up.
I floated down slowly, then deactivated Gear Fourth. My muscles deflated like a bounce house after a birthday party. I nearly fell over.
MC: "Oooohhh… that takes a lot outta me..."
I stumbled a bit, then walked over to where Vali lay unconscious, still grinning like he had the best nap of his life.
MC: "So... how you holding up?"
No answer.
Just that stupid smile.
Guy was out cold.
I laughed and slung him over my back like a backpack full of trauma.
MC: "Well... that was kinda fun."
I turned, still breathing heavy, still steaming a little, and started walking back like nothing happened. Just another Tuesday.
The others saw me from afar. Kiba's eyes lit up. Asia nearly cried. Issei looked like he just watched a new episode drop. Rias and Xenovia sprinted over.
I lifted a hand, smiled and waved.
