Chapter 2
🕑 Added 2025-05-05 15:08:16 +0000 UTCUnder Sona, as long as one had ability, there was still a chance to join the student council. Under Rias, if you didn't have talent and weren't a devil, and still wanted to join the Occult Research Club? Sorry, were you joking?
In any case, thanks to a chess match wager, Shoyo successfully joined the student council. One year after joining, just now, Shoyo finally successfully activated his system!

[Ding!]
[Loading complete! Congratulations to the host for activating the God-level Sign-in System!]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations to the host for triggering a location sign-in! Sign-in level: King!]
[Sign-in location – the head of the Infinite Dragon God, Ophis.]
[Sign-in time limit: 1 hour.]
---
"What the hell!~"
Shoyo’s personality was usually extremely calm, but even he almost couldn't help but curse under these circumstances.
What the hell?! Did the system not know that Ophis was likely under the protection of the Khaos Brigade? Was it telling him to charge in and court death against a group of heroes and the Old Satan Faction?!
"I think I need an explanation," Shoyo muttered.
---
[Ding!]
[The location for the location sign-in is a place that the host will definitely be able to reach within the time limit.]
[Please pay attention to your surroundings.]
---
"Alright," Shoyo sighed. "But what's with this sign-in level?"
---
[Ding!~]
[The sign-in level is divided into five tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, and King. The reward level increases accordingly.]
[The higher the sign-in level, the lower the probability of it appearing.]
[There is a daily sign-in. The more daily sign-ins you complete, the higher the probability of triggering a high-level sign-in.]
---
"Ugh... In other words, this is the highest level sign-in?"
Shoyo swallowed hard. He had to admit, he was indeed tempted.
---
[Yes.]
Danger and opportunity coexisted. Besides, in Ophis's eyes, he should be as insignificant as an ant. It should... it should be fine? Shoyo comforted himself.
---
"Let’s not consider whether I can complete the sign-in yet. That’s something to think about after I actually encounter Ophis."
Shoyo decided to first calculate the distance he could cover within an hour. Starting from Kuoh Academy, if he ran at full speed, he could cover 15 kilometers in an hour, which meant any location within a 15-kilometer radius of the school gate.
Ignoring winding roads, an irregular shape quickly formed in Shoyo's mind. He had possessed astonishing calculation abilities since childhood, and his memory was also remarkable, allowing him to easily project the map of Kuoh Town in his head.
Then... a few seconds later,
Shoyo opened his eyes again.
---
"The highest point around here should be there."
Shoyo ran toward a clock tower. That was the place where he could see the overall situation as much as possible!
---
"Huff!~ Huff!~ Huff!~"
Reaching the top of the clock tower, Shoyo silently substituted in other factors, factors that would affect the probability of Ophis appearing. He considered Ophis’s personality as shown in the High School DxD storyline so far, the regular flow of people in Kuoh Town, various facilities in Kuoh Town from his memory, and...
This powerful calculation ability was perhaps Shoyo’s innate talent. In an ordinary world, he would have definitely become a top-tier tycoon. In fact, his current net worth was already quite astonishing.
But, this was High School DxD, a world full of gods and devils! Maybe someone would just start a fight, and he’d inexplicably die. The remaining people would have their memories erased, leaving almost no proof he had ever existed.
---
"Alright! It’s these few places!"
Shoyo successfully calculated these locations. This was not difficult for him at all.
---
One minute.
Three minutes.
Ten minutes.
Shoyo silently observed from the clock tower.
Suddenly... Shoyo's eyes widened, he... he found it!
---
"Found it!"
Quickly, he ran down from the clock tower toward the target location.
.............................
A few minutes later, Shoyo saw the girl, no, to be precise, the l*li. The cute l*li dragon who had been staring at a large box inside the arcade.
Her skin was white, and under the gothic l*lita dress, her black hair appeared extremely still. Her delicate feet wore a pair of small black shoes, and her long hair made her look even smaller. A long-lost hint of emotion flickered in her eyes.
Shoyo, proficient in psychology, instantly understood her emotion. This emotion... was called longing.
Following Ophis’s gaze, Shoyo saw a claw crane machine.
"Huh?~~~ This is so cliché. Are all the girls in Japanese anime so easily attracted to the dolls in claw crane machines?~~~"
Shoyo couldn’t help but comment. Then, after thinking for a moment, he walked toward the claw crane machine.
"Ding!~~"
One coin. He had only exchanged one game coin at the counter.
He threw the coin into the claw crane machine. With a cartoon sound, the claw above began to swing left and right.
"This is the moment..."
These claw crane machines were generally rigged. The store would specifically set a number of times it wouldn't drop the prize. Before reaching that number, no matter how many times you tried, the claw would always loosen at the last moment.
Black-hearted stores would even directly set it to 100, meaning the claw would only not release midway once in a hundred tries.
"Click!~~"
Sure enough, just as it was about to reach the exit, the claw on the machine loosened.
"Thump~~"
Just then, Shoyo gently shook the claw crane machine! The doll, which was originally swaying left and right as it fell toward the exit, suddenly gained an extra burst of acceleration! Then... it landed perfectly at the exit.
Under Ophis’s slightly envious gaze, Shoyo silently took the doll out.
This kind of calculation was like the difference between a university math problem and an elementary school math problem compared to calculating where Ophis would appear.
"Stare~~~~"
Ophis’s gaze was very calm. It was... it was just fixed on the doll in Shoyo’s hand.
Under Ophis’s gaze, Shoyo slowly walked up to her.
"Is this what you wanted?" Shoyo smiled. Ophis might be the easiest powerful being in High School DxD to deal with. Of course... there was definitely danger involved.
"........................"
Without speaking, Ophis merely nodded her small head.
Under the setting sun, a pair of slender, flawless snow-white feet were exposed, as if wanting to walk forward but stopping midway. Soft, warm light slowly slid across the tops of her feet like flowing water, quietly flowing over her body, as if draping her in a faint glow.
"I saw you seemed to be looking at it the whole time. Did you want this?" Shoyo asked again.
"Mmm."
This time, Ophis nodded.
