We already surpassed chapter 41, so I'll just post one chapter a day. Don't worry about me dropping this as I already have a bunch of chapters in the draft.

After Xander reached an agreement with Sona, he went to the Occult Research Club and saw Azazel standing there with the members of it. "Oh, you really became their advisor huh?" Xander said as he took a seat in the sofa where Koneko was sitting. "I need to do it" Azazel said as if he's sacrificing himself for the better of the world.
"Hm? Did something happen? Azazel" Xander asked as he saw the complicated look on Azazel's face. "You could say that... The Norse Gods are acting weird, No.. nevermind" Azazel didn't complete his words and Xander didn't really care, even if the whole world was engulfed in war, he wouldn't stop it unless they are troubling him or something.
"How are you gonna handle them, Azazel? Are you going to manage their training?" Xander asked as he was interested in their training arc. "Nope.. That's too troublesome, I will just watch over them and stop them from going overboard" Azazel said while relaxing on his chair.
Asia brewed Xander a tea and placed it infront of him. "Thank you, Asia" Xander said while looking at her with a smile, Asia just accepted his thanks with a innocent smile of her own. "You really changed the world Xander" Azazel said while shaking his head.
Xander took some cookie from Koneko's cookie bag and sip some of the tea. "What do you mean, Azazel?" Xander asked as he couldn't understand what Azazel is muttering right now. "Did you know that everyone's perspective of powers change the moment you fought against that Abomination, everyone became scared of something like that happening again so they started training seriously... Like really serious" Azazel said emphasizing the word serious, Xander was surprised by that, he was just ignoring the happenings in the world that he didn't know something like that already happened.
"Woah, something like that really happened?" Xander asked while eating the cookies, "You... You really don't care about anything beside's Sitri Heiress.." Azazel said as he got a head ache just from talking to Xander.
"Eh? Is that so? I didn't really noticed it" Xander said making them pissed, "Anyway, I just came here to see if you really became their advisor, I'm going back now, Goodbye Koneko-chan" Xander said as he waved his hands towards Koneko while leaving the room.
After the class ended, Xander went home to change into a much comfortable clothes, he brought a bag with the illustrations inside it and drove towards the meeting place. He arrived at a empty cafe and entered it, he saw Machida sitting in the corner so he went towards her. "Machida-san" Xander called her out as she was busy typing on her phone.
"Oh, Xander you're already here" Machida replied as she tucked the phone on her pocket and gestured Xander to take a seat infront of her. "Here, use this for the illustrations" Xander said as he handed the bunch of papers to Machida who just accepted it. Machida started looking at the papers, even though she already saw many of Shiina Mashiro's art, she still couldn't help but marvel at this fine art.
"This... Xander, did she already got used to drawing illustrations?" Machida asked as she can see that the drawings are more comfortable this time, not like last time where she can still see stiff strokes. "Yeah, it seems like she is ready to take the next step" Xander said while smiling, he liked Mashiro's development, since instead of going backwards like in the anime, she was procceding peacefully this time, there are no hindrance that would stop her growth.
"Are you going to let her draw manga next? Is she good at making story?" Machida asked as she was interested in Mashiro's next project. "I'll think about it, and she is not really good at making story, her understanding of people are still vague since her mind is still not advance, her whole life was dedicated to painting that she forgot some common sense" Xander explained making Machida understood more about Mashiro.
Machida then recalled something, "I heard that you were with Shi-chan the whole day yesterday? How is the progress?" Machida asked as remember hearing it from Utaha yesterday in their call. "Progress...? I'll just tell you this but... I have a fiancee you know?" Xander said making Machida baffled, "Huh?... You already have an lover?" She asked while Xander just nodded his head.
"I never really mentioned it, but I love my lover to the point that I'll fight the whole world for her" Machida snorted at the metaphor, though she didn't know that Xander would really do that. If the worse ever happened, Xander would just level up his teleport skill and then bring Sona to other universe.
Xander always use Clairvoyance everyday to know if someone is plotting against him or the one he cares for. He don't want Sona to be kidnapped and hit by the poison of Samael, and after Xander fix her, he would become a terrorist. Xander smiled as he remembered that one fanfic he loved in his past life. (A/N : guess what it is)
"Ahh, How should I explain this to Shi-chan.." Machida muttered making Xander weirded out. "Why would she worry about this?... Wait, does she like me?" Xander asked making Machida stare at him with a gaze like 'Are you serious?' "But I thought that she was just following me to gain some inspirations" Machida shook his head at his words. "What kind of woman would kiss a person just to be approved in following a man" Machida said making Xander think about it,
"Right... I'll think about it" Xander said, he's tired of thinking about this kind of thing when he already has Sona on his side. Its not like he disliked harem, its just illogical how could someone accept others without complaining about it... Oh this is a DxD world huh? Xander realized something that changed his mindset.
Xander kicked his thoughts out of his head "Machida, when can my book be published? I want it to be published as soon as possible because I want to finish my anime" Xander asked Machida as he needed to share the real treasure to everyone. "Huh? Since when did you make an anime?" Machida asked curious about this guy who is like an enigma.
"Nevermind about that, I just want to know when and can you introduce me to some good Seiyuu? Just tell them that I want to make them to be part of the anime of Kimi no nawa" Xander said, he know the influence of his book so he know its not a problem looking for a voice actor, more like they would swarm if they know that Xander is looking for someone.
"Hm, maybe the next 3 days? And for the Seiyuu, I'll tell the company, they know a lot of them so finding one wouldn't be a problem" Xander nodded his head at that, that was acceptable since he still need to go to the underworld to train Sona and her peerage.
"Then, that's all right? Its already late, I'm still a young man... I need to sleep early, that was the order of my mother" Xander said while yawning making Machida shook her head, if Xander was a normal person then she would accept, but this guy is abnormal. "Sigh, and I still want to discuss about more" Machida sighed as she accepted Xander's words.
As a Editor she need to take care of his health too, so she let him go. "Do you need ride?" Xander asked making Machida interested. "You have a car?" She asked wondering what car Xander possess. They went to the parking lot as Xander walked towards a black car. "Hello there beautiful~" Xander said as he appreciate the car which made Machida sigh, genuises really has their own quirks.
Machida do admit that this car was a sexy one for mans, 'Xander has a good taste in car' Machida thought while looking at the car. They enterer the car and Xander immediately drove towards the place Machida told him. They arrive at a big condo where Machida entered while saying her goodbyes to him. After sending her, Xander went home immediately, it was already late, he was already tired and wanted to rest.
The next morning, Xander went to school with a smile on his face. They were going to the Underworld today, although Xander has already been there, he was just at the Sitri Mansion and never really have an tour there, Xander was hoping to find some nice things in there.
He arrived at the entrance where the Sitri Peerage were already waiting. "Hi everyone~" Xander said while waving his hands at them, all of them except Sona bowed their heads to him and while greeting back. "You're really fast, its still early and you're already ready." Xander said as he saw that he is the only one they were waiting for. "No, Rias already went there yesterday, we won't let any minute waste because we saw just how powerless we are infront of that Abomination" Sona said while shaking her head.
Xander nodded his head but still told them "Sigh, you shouldn't be stuck with that monster, its not something you can fight you know? Only the 2 strongest being in this world can fight that" Xander said, though he was also doubtful if Ophis and Great Red can fight them, since the Draconic Deus world is rather weak compared to others.
"Is it.. really that strong?" Tsubaki asked as she can't believe that even Shiva who they saw as a strong being they couldn't hope to compare wouldn't be able to kill that thing. "Yup, that's just how strong that thing is, if you want to know more about that being then you gotta read more books" Xander said as he recommended some books for them to study.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Sona was about to teleport them but Xander suddenly stopped her. "Wait! Teleporting is rather boring, do you have other transportation? I want to see the Underworld for myself" Xander said making Sona realized that Xander was always with her so he never really got to see what the Underworld looked like, except for the sky that is.
Sona teleported them to a train station that was connected to the Underworld, they bought a ticket and then entered the train. "Train huh? How does this thing work? Does it ran so fast that it would blur and immediately arrive at the Underworld?" Xander kept asking questions that Sona answered with the knowledge she possess.
After 10 minutes, the train finally started moving, the scenery was the same until the sky suddenly turned purple, "Wow, devils really do have brains" Xander said as he realized what just happened. The peerage were happy with Xander's compliment as they raised their chins lightly.
Xander just kept watching the view while appreciating it, in his past life Xander was just a normal young man that hasn't travel, he could only watch some pictures in the internet if he wanted to see some nice views. Sona smiled as she watched Xander looking at the scenery with a sparkling eyes, she was happy that her race didn't disappoint Xander with their scenery.
After an hour, they arrived at the Sitri Territory which made the peerage members confused as they couldn't see anything beside the land. Sona just kept walking as they followed her, after walking at a certain place, the view suddenly changed. Instead of the wasteland where there are no structures, what appeared in their view was the usual Sitri Territory but much better now.
"Kaichou, did something happen to your territory?" Tsubaki asked as she saw the territory improved greatly. "Let's just say its a ... Xander thing" Sona said making the members nod their head in understanding. Xander's lips started twitching at their conversation, so every thing that they can't understand, I would be the reason? Xander thought as he shook his head.
They just kept walking, sometimes Sona would be greeted by the citizens with a thankful smile on their face which Sona accepted without any problem, "You're really loved by the people huh?" Xander while looking at the people who are staring at Sona and her peerage. "? Are you jealous?" Sona tried to tease Xander but didn't expect his response.
"Oh why I am, that's why I'm going to show my superiority to them" Xander said as he grabbed Sona's chin and kissed her infront of everyone which made the watcher surprised. "Wha- Xander, behave yourself" Sona said after the kiss, she started walking faster while having a blush on her face. She was embarrassed to be seen making out by a lot of people.
They arrived at the mansion where they were greeted by Sona's parents. "Thank you for receiving us, Father, Mother" Xander said as he thanked both of them. They shook their heads and led them inside, and went to the lounge. "Its been a long time, Xander-kun. How are you doing?" Lord Sitri said as he ordered the servant to brew some tea for them.
"I'm fine, Father. I was just surprise by how you built this territory" Xander said as he knew that this territory is now a fortress that can even handle an all out attack from the 10 strongest being except for the top 3. "Ah, I expected you to notice it, Its great right?" Lord Sitri said with a big smile on his face which gained a pinch on the side by her wife. "Don't brag infront of Xander-kun, he was the one who gave you the core, dear" Lady Sitri said while shaking her head at her husband's immature action.
Xander just chuckled at their banter while wondering if this scene would be the same if he and Sona already married. "Anyway, how is your progress with space magic?" Xander asked making Lord Sitri stiffened on the spot. "Actually, he never practice it since he was so focus on protecting the territory" Lady Sitri explained while placing a hand on her face.
"No, its fine, please continue on building the territory, the world is becoming rather... Dangerous so please just keep pouring mana on the core" They were alarmed by his words, they already knew about the Abomination because Serafall explained it to them. "I'll keep that in mind" Lord Sitri said as Xander turned his attention to Lady Sitri. "How about you Mother? What power have you gain now?" Xander asked curious about what level is Lady Sitri in practicing the magic.
"Ever since you cooked us the dish, I felt that my learning progress became rather fast? So right now I gained the ability call 'Isolation' what it does is basically seal an opponent to a space from the other dimension making it hard for them to shield against it. They might even die if the dimension space they reached is an volatile one" Lady explained the ability that she gained from practicing.
This ability is rather disturbing, people won't be able to escape it unless they have minds so strong that they can analyze a space in other dimension. Other Dimension means other laws. Xander was amazed by how she practiced with Space Magic, as long as she trained this ability, she might be able to seal Great Red just like how Big G sealed Trihexa. Though she need to practice at least hundred or years to do that.
After their chats, Lord Sitri gave them rooms to rest, they placed their items inside and went outside Sitri's territory to train. They were already eager to train, and was just waiting for Xander to finish what he was thinking. Meanwhile Xander was thinking how to train them, they already has an abilities but none of it were lethal against someone stronger than them.
After 5 minutes he finished his thoughts as he started giving them sticks. "What is this, Xander-sama?" Momo asked as they just picked a stick from the cup. They realized what it was when they saw the number in the tip of the stick. "That's the order of how I am going to train you, so? Who's number one?" Xander asked as Reya raised her stick.
Xander remembered something as he gave each of them a bracelet and a necklace for Sona. "What is the effect of this, Xander?" Sona asked as she let Xander place the necklace on her neck, though there were some extra touching and sniffing in the nape.
"This thing has 3 effects, first is return to the owner incase you lost it, second is unbreakable, and lastly... It can hide your whole power no matter how strong you are" Xander explained to them the uses of the acessories to them which made them nod their heads. "Shall we start?" Xander said with a big grin on his face.
