"...Huh... where'd that thing I left here go?"
The man searching for something while scattering things about was Azazel, the former Governor-General of the Fallen Angels.
He was searching for a certain something...
Yes, a certain something.
"I don't think I left a controller around here, so it must have gone somewhere... Oh well, whatever. It was just a prototype that didn't even work right. I did want to test its effects, but... what's gone is gone, can't be helped. I'll just forget about it. Someone probably got rid of it on their own anyway. I forgot it even existed after I made it, so it's fine, it's fine."
A controller. Yes, a controller. The kind of controller that comes with a video game console.
Azazel stopped looking for it.
"...Azazel, what are you doing?"
Azazel was suddenly spoken to. He knew the owner of that voice.
"...Isn't that Ophis? What are you doing in a place like this?"
Ophis, the legendary Infinite Dragon.
For some reason, she was standing in his room.
Of course, she had entered without permission, but Azazel decided to let it slide for the time being.
"Issei brought me here. Then, before I knew it, I was alone."
"You got lost...? ...Might as well ask... Hey, you haven't seen a controller that was here, have you?"
"That... When I touched it a little while ago, it and the bag it was in flew off somewhere. For some reason, it feels like it absorbed a little of my power."
"What... did you say..."
It was something he had made half in jest, but Ophis's words now sent him into a tremendous panic.
Her power was truly infinite—or to be precise, though it has diminished considerably, it still holds immense might. He shuddered at the thought that the controller had survived being bathed in her power.
He could only wonder what kind of power-up it was undergoing right now...
Incidentally, the controller had been placed in a bag, and an instruction manual carefully detailing its use was enclosed with it.
And the power of that controller was—
—an item of pure convenience that allowed the user to set their own "cheat commands," with effects that could be applied not in a game, but to targets in the real world, including oneself or anything else.
To put it simply, it was similar to a hypnosis item, but it could even completely heal injuries.
However, now that it had been bathed in Ophis's power, it was plain to see that it could do things far beyond its original design.
Just what would happen...?
But this item could only be wielded by a user with the right affinity, and Azazel, judging himself to be incompatible, had stored it away somewhere in his room.
So then, where did that controller go?
The answer is simple—
"...This... controller is?"
It had fallen into the hands of a human boy, the protagonist of this story.
Because of this, the original story will be altered, likely transforming into a tale that should never have been.
He attends Kuoh Academy, the same school as the original protagonist, Hyoudou Issei, and is in the same grade.
However, he is an ordinary person, while Hyoudou Issei is a Devil and a Dragon.
Until now, no matter how hard he might have tried, he likely could never have surpassed him.
But, the moment he took this controller in hand, he overwhelmed him in every aspect.
Power, wealth, lifespan... in these and many other things, he had won at that very moment.
The reason being, what he held was a super-cheat-class item that could literally alter the world.
It could do anything.
As long as the affinity was there, anything at all...
Such a thing Azazel had created on a whim.
And Ophis had touched it...
Because of this, firstly, literally anything became possible.
And he... had an outstanding affinity for this controller.
As a result, everything will now likely revolve around him.
But, it can't be helped.
Because that's just the kind of thing this controller is...
