High School Dxd: Word of Creation

Drifting in an endless expanse of void a small light stands out in the darkness. As it drifts a being seemingly made of a million galaxies reaches out to the light taking it in its hands. The being twists and turns the light as if appraising its worth.

Feeling satisfied the immeasurable being speaks in an echoing voice, "Yes, you shall do just fine."

In the instant the being was finished speaking the light began to brighten and mold into a humanoid form. It begins to wriggle as each of its limbs become usable again and tries to wrench itself free from whatever restraint holds it. After a while the humanoid light comes to full consciousness and begins to speak.

POV: The Soul -

As I feel myself awaking, I notice that my surroundings look very strange. I'm surrounded by nothing but darkness except a colossal being standing before me seeming made of infinite galaxies in a vaguely humanoid shape.

"Where am I? What happened?" I said not really expecting an answer from a hallucination.

A echoing voice that I can only assume comes from the entity in front of me says, "You are in what is called the void. An infinite realm that exists in the margins between fantasy and reality. Or at least your reality…"

I look incredulously at the being, "I'm sorry… What?"

"This is the realm that divides your world from the countless realties that would be considered fiction. Every book, tv show, movie, and even dreams have a reality that represents it somewhere in this void." The being said promptly.

"Then why and how am I here?" I questioned.

"Because you are dead. Now, before you panic! There is absolutely nothing you can do to undo what has happened. And you won't remember any family or friends you had cause that is cruel even for me." The being said as if it were the most normal thing in the world.

Now that I have thought of it, I don't remember much. I remember basic things like language clearly and I can recall various shows and movies I watched but if I tried to remember any family or friends, I couldn't come up with anything.

The being began to speak up, "The most important thing is that you have been chosen by yours truly to transmigrate into another body from another world." I move to ask something, but the being cuts me off. "No, you don't have wishes, but I won't be leaving you out to dry. I have chosen an anime world that you are somewhat familiar with, the world of High School DxD. A fitting place for a degenerate like yourself since you consume such perverted media. But it matters not because you shall provide enough entertainment for me."

The being took a short pause to let the information sink in, "I shall send you into the body of a certain Hiyama Oreki, a young man that attends Kuoh Academy with his younger sister in the same year as Rias Gremory. You will have other family, but they live in Kyoto while you live in one of your father's rental properties in Kuoh while you go to school. Additionally, you will have all the memories of Hiyama and relevant knowledge from your previous world to make transitioning easier. Furthermore, I shall grant you the legendary power of the sacred gear, Logos Reverie. A powerful sacred gear that is akin to the voice of God, allowing you to bend reality with your words."

Well, I guess that is as broken a sacred gear as I could hope for. Though I imagine it will have limitations. I raise my voice in a questioning tone, "I have a few questions. First, are there any changes being made to this world? Second, what are the limitations of my sacred gear? And third, what will I look like? Fourth, will my younger sister be special in anyway?"

The being took on an Instructive tone, "You are wise indeed to question those particular things. First, yes there will be changes in that the world of dxd will become a real one. Combining with your presence, the world will be somewhat different. You will see when you get there and start learning. Second, I'll let you discover most of what your sacred gear requires but you do have to use some form of energy to effect change with it. And thirdly, you will be somewhat attractive I assure you. In a world of harems such a thing can be invaluable, but any changes you make to yourself will be your decision. Fourth, your sister will have her talents… but that is all I'll say. Shall we send you off then?"

I think momentarily, "Well I could always ask more questions, but you are unlikely to give me too many answers. So, yeah send me off." And in that instant, darkness consumed me.

POV: Hiyama - 

Feeling myself in bed, I opened my eyes to find myself in a bedroom. Light spilled in from a window to my right. I look around my new bedroom finding a desk with a computer on it, an open closet filled with various clothes, of course the bed I was currently in, and a small table to the side of my bed with a lamp, lotion, and a box of tissues…

Hopefully that only meant Hiyama, or rather I, was a healthy young man with hormones and not a fourth member of the perverted trio. I get out of bed and begin to think about what my next steps should be while organizing my new memories. I am a week out from the beginning of the school year, and just as the being said I am in my third year. I should be there for about two weeks from the beginning of canon.

My first order of business should be to awaken my sacred gear, I'm defenseless without it. I've got a group of rouge fallen just wandering around killing sacred gear holders, two devil heiresses that have obsessed older siblings that can destroy the world, and a thousand other threats. Second, I need to deal with the fallen angel threat. I have no way of knowing when or if they will come after me. I'd prefer not to have to join Rias or Sona's peerage for protection as I am somewhat a religious man. I have no intention of abandoning my faith even if God is dead in this world.

From what I remember, sacred gears are connected closely with the user's desire. To awaken your gear, you must either unconsciously awaken it through stress or trauma, achieve strength enough for it to naturally awaken, or increase your desire to the point where my gear responds and awakens. Essentially the last one is my only option to get ready in time. So, I guess it's time to start testing it out.

But first I should explore my new house first. I walk out of my room and begin to explore the house. I enter the hallway to see four rooms, three of which are bedrooms while one remains empty. My sister's room which is currently occupied lies just next to mine. I'll interact with her later, but I continue to explore the house. I walk down the stairs to walk around the ground floor. I find a living room, kitchen, dining room, and a door that leads to the basement. Walking down into the basement I find another living space with a rather large tv and an assortment of video games and consoles. This living space seems to have served as Hiyama's man cave. Finally, there is an adjacent room that has a laundry room and storage.

Perhaps a bit on the bigger side of what qualifies as a single-family home but whatever the case, my parents are clearly rolling in cash. From my memories, my father owns a rather lucrative real estate business he runs out of Kyoto, while my mother owns a chain of fancy restaurants that cater to tourists.

I walk into the kitchen only to see my sister sitting at the adjacent dining room table looking at me. Shiori was her name, she had long straight brown hair that reached down too her waist with large doe-like black eyes. Regardless, she clearly wasn't loved by the dxd gods because she was as flat as a door when it came to her chest but at least she had a hefty rear end. I'll have to be watching out for perverts in this world, because she can't be described as anything but beautiful. She didn't appear to be full Japanese, so I imagine I wasn't either which I should probably look in a mirror to see. From my memories, my mother is American and moved here to live with my father.

With a sweet smile she spoke, "Hey big brother, can you make me breakfast please?"

I'm the only family she has around so I've got to take care of her. Donning a sweet smile in return I nodded in acceptance. So, I get to work making food while she waits to play on her phone. While I make the food, I think about how I will awaken my sacred gear and how I'll protect my sister from the dangers of this world.

Despite being my younger sister, I was born in April, and she was born in March of the following year, so we remain in the same year at school, so we've effectively acted as twins our entire life. Though, she has no problem taking advantage of having the title of the younger one. I likely will need to introduce her to the supernatural once I get my bearings in this new world.

 When I've finished preparing her and myself an omelet, I place the plate in front of her and sit down just across from where she is sitting. She thanks me for the food before digging in, I have some experience in cooking from my previous life and my new as well so it should taste pretty good. With the speed she is eating it seems that is the case at least.

 "Slow down sis, you'll choke." I said with some worry.

 "I'll be fine, your food is just so good Hiyama." she responded muffled with food still in her mouth. Before digging back in, though at a noticeably slower pace. Taking the momentary silence, I eat my own plate of food.

 Once we are both done, I speak up "Hey, how about we take a stroll around town? I'll take you shopping as well~" trying to entice her into agreeing. She is some weird amalgamation of a girly girl and a tom boy that I can't quite understand. On second she eats and lives like a pig but the moment she is out in public she's all about cute skirts and expensive coffee. The reason I asked is because I want to have a fresh look at the town now that I have my memories from my past life. I might notice something that the Original Hiyama might not have. It will also give me a chance to get to know Shiori, who for better or worse is family now. She enthusiastically nods her head before running upstairs to get ready. I clean the dining room and kitchen up and follow to do the same.

I prepare to use one of the showers and put on some clothes when I finally get a chance to look at my face. I had dirty blonde hair and black eyes. I could say fairly definitively that the being did not lie, I was attractive. I don't imagine girls would fall over themselves to get my attention like they do to Kiba, and from my memories of previous school years that was true until you take into account I am one of the handful of boys who aren't perverted so if the girls of Kuoh aren't crushing on Kiba then I am next.

This is gonna be such a drag…
