Somewhere far from the school festival chatter, a boy gasped back to life.
Issei Hyoudou woke in a luxurious bed, surrounded by unfamiliar warmth. At his side sat Rias Gremory, red hair cascading like liquid silk.
"You're awake," she said softly.
The green jewel embedded in his gauntlet flickered.
The Boosted Gear had chosen him.
As Issei sat up, confused and sore, fate realigned.
He was no longer a normal student. He was now a reincarnated devil—a servant of Rias Gremory.
And soon, he would be dragged into a world of wings, fire, and war.
