Few Years

Azrek was now nine years old, it had already been more than four years since he activated his sub-brain.

Since then nothing had changed, every time he felt his physical strength's bottleneck loosening due to him growing up, he would resume physical training to reach the peak his body could accept, thus after reaching nine years old, not only was he taller than other kids his age, appearing to be slightly above eleven years old, his figure was also even closer to a perfected state.

One could say that he had reached the turning point between being called cute and called handsome.

His Demonic Energy had also grown a lot, being in terms of power as strong as a strong Count Level Figures, his control over it had also ben enhanced by a lot, he was able to perfectly control his current Demonic Energy's quantity.

Due to both his physical strength and demonic energy being this strong, he was able to say confidently that he was considered as strong amongst the High-Class Devils, of course, there were still some that were more powerful than him, but amongst his generation, he was confident that he was pretty much unbeatable at this point.

Thanks to his sub-brain, he was able to speed up his reading of the library by a lot, he had probably already memorized more than three-tenths of the whole library, but even then he still didn't find a way to surpass the bottleneck.

Other than waiting as he grew up, there didn't seem to be a solution to this problem.

In reality, it was to be expected, it had been a problem for strong devils since the first generation. Even his ancestor the first Dantalion who was said to be number one when it came to science and arts wasn't able to find a way to solve this problem.

After living in this world for a little more than six years, Azrek's finally was able to completely adapt to it, the few images of his previous life began to merge with the memories of this body creating a whole new identity as Azrek Dantalion, thus making him slowly forget about things he wanted to forget in his past life, only keeping the memories of his parents, skills, and the few remaining memories of Highschool DxD.

'Sigh, it had been arrogant of me to think that I would be able to find a solution to the limit of physical strength of a Devil in a few years while knowing that this problem had existed since forever...' Azrek really felt that he had overestimated himself due to the confidence he had when he crossed to a world he knew the future of, but he now realized that everything wasn't as easy, maybe becoming stronger while he grew up wasn't a bad choice because even if he found a means to bypass the bottleneck, he didn't know what would happen to his physical body. He didn't want his external appearance to become that of a monster.

'Aside from that, only two more years before I receive the Evil Pieces, I need to start thinking about the future and find some members for my peerage... I'll probably go for a full reincarnated peerage since I want to get a maximum of Sacred Gears... maybe the big sister of the Nekoshou from Rias's peerage could be a good addition, she will become the most researched criminal of the underworld and the only SS-Rank Stray Devil, this alone is a proof of her talents but it would be difficult to make her trust me after what she and her sister went through at the Naberius' Branch Family'.'

'Maybe if I go there to destroy the place and save her and her sister I would be able to get her to join me and if I use her sister safety as a reason for her not to bring her together, that little girl should still join the Rias' peerage.' The more he thought about it, the more plausible it seemed, because it was only a branch family, thus even if they discovered his identity one day, the Naberius Clan would never dare to raise the subject to the Dantalion Clan, first because it was humiliating to get a whole branch of the clan destroyed by a single kid, and secondly because a mere branch family wasn't enough to get two main Clans to start a conflict.'

'And with the help from my clan, I should be able to avoid her becoming a criminal thus recruiting my future Bishop, what's more, one who requires two pieces.'

'Mother told me that she already had my Queen prepared for me, but I should still search in case she doesn't pass my requirements... After that come Knights... this piece is pretty hard at this time, in Japan a lot of peoples practice Kendo so I'll look in that direction when I go to Earth... For Pawn and Rook, I'll see at a later time.'

He had already begun to think about his Evil Pieces since the moment he came to this world, but it was slightly more difficult in these times of peace in the human world to find someone worthy of being reincarnated.

"Sigh... If I still don't find any clues for the Rook I'll take the little sister too... but it isn't too good and should be my last possibility because it would modify the future of this world a lot, and thus I wouldn't be able to know what is going to change..." It was a pretty difficult choice to make.

'Alright I still have two years before that day anyway, I'll think about it some more.'
