Gilgamesh in DxD

*PoV Gilgamesh*

I looked at Rias Gremory with a ridiculous look. A spoiled, stupid girl like her was not fit to respect me. After all, she was nothing but a selfish wannabe princess who assembles the coat of her family's prestige. It was a shame that only Venelana Gremory kept the leash with her, but as she was the only person, this spoiled girl became a stereotypical teenager who rebelled against her parents.

"Are you deaf little girl?"

"What do you mean, Gilgamesh-kun? I don't understand for this enmity you directed at me." With a hard smile, Rias replied back.

*snorts* - I let out a cold snort, my eyes boring into her skull coldly.

"You know what? Well, I've said that before, haven't I? You can't keep your innocent mask on anymore. Do you think I'm oblivious to your plan to kill me?"

"But I never had this-"

"—an insidious plan like that, huh? So what should I call your plan to stage my death at the hands of the Fallen Angels? Wasn't that your fault after all?"

"But... there wasn't me. How can you accuse me without..."

[—Rias... are you sure about this?]

Everyone's eyes widened with loud voices echoing in the Occult Club's office. Akeno Himejima's eyes were the widest. After all, it was her voice.

My right hand was slightly raised in the air, parallel to my chest and palm opening. Above the palm, a small magic circle smaller than the palm glowed blood red. The voice came from this magic circle.

The day I went out to see Issei's encounter with Raynare, I implemented a magical all-purpose construct within the ORC like a ladybug. He hid well and recorded this conversation on my command.

The magic recorder continued:

[I have no other choice. This is the only way I can think.]

That was Rias' voice. Then it would be Akeno's turn again.

[I know that by orchestrating their death at their hands, they will give you their loyalty and trust after you reincarnate them. However, what if they discover the truth that you are leaving them to die? Why don't you choose another way with less risk than this?]

[There is another way to recruit them, of course. But... they won't give me their trust and loyalty right away. To build trust between us as Master and Servant, we need time. And you lack time... if they figure it out. It will be a problem in the future. I just hope that my care and affection for them can somehow lessen the impact. I don't need to worry about that. After all, my family is known for their affection for the servant. He will accept even if the truth comes out. I'm sure of it!]

When the recorder ended, the magic circle disappeared. I lowered my hand and looked into Rias's stunned face. So I spoke in a condensing tone.

"And to satiate your curiosity, I wasn't bluffing when I said I'm going to enjoy a fight with your brother."

"Never dare disrespect my brother Gilgamesh." With sharp, poisonous words, Rias rebuked my words.

"Disrespect your brother? Weren't you the one who disrespected what your brother had fought in the Devil's Civil War in the past, little girl?"

I ridiculed her. When I saw her confused, I continued:

"Do you think your insidious plan to kill me and make me your servant is similar to the way the old-time devil does his thing? Have you ever thought that what you did is no different from what your brother fought in the past? Have you ever thought how hypocritical you were when you told me to stop disrespecting your brother while spitting on your brother's sacrifice? Think girl, think! Stop being a selfish girl and think of others outside of yourself. I know the devil is a greedy creature, but excessive greed just means a problem for you, exactly what you are currently facing."

Rias bit her lower lip, her blue eyes gleaming with frustration. She couldn't answer because everything I said was right. I was sure everyone in the room was curious about how I knew so much about the supernatural world, but I didn't stop. I wouldn't let Rias take a breather to calm her fluctuating emotion. I would press her wrong button without mercy until she broke.

"Not just putting yourself in a dangerous situation. You will drag your servants, your family or even your brother into something very dangerous. Don't think that just because your brother is powerful, he has become invincible. There are scarier monsters in this world, which can crush your brother into oblivion easily. "

I paused for breath. I watched Rias' reaction and saw tears pool in the corners of her eyes. There were tears of anger and frustration. She couldn't release her frustration and she condensed into tears. The other, even Sona - a pureblood devil who should have known about that fact - focused on my words with rapt attention.

And then I kept my cruel and painful exclamation.

"I know of the marriage contract between the house of Gremory and the house of Phenex. It's something that has spread throughout the underworld. And I also know how against that idea you are. But shouldn't you know that it's your responsibility? an heir to the House. of Gremory, the heiress, however. The House of Gremory has always faced a bad rumor because of its characteristic of loving the servant too much. At least Duke Gremory has the House of Marchocias as a defender in the past, but now? other devils consider her weakness. No, not just them! In the supernatural world, the world where the strong rule over the weak and the only power that matters, kindness has always become synonymous with weakness. The family has never produced anything worthy of note for the devil type in recent centuries. And because his brother was enthroned with the title of Lucifer, in the eyes of the masses his achievements belong to Lucifer's line, not Gremory."

I paused for another breath. Talking about the political intricacies of the underworld certainly caused a sore throat. However, the joy of ridiculing Rias was worth it.

"And to get other support, the marriage contract between the House of Gremory and the House of Phenex took place. Your job as the next duke of your house is to maintain the house. "

"The...there...there must be another way! II will protect my family's line and prestige! But, I will continue with my decision to abolish this stupid marriage contract!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" I laughed at Rias's ridiculous exclamation. "What are you going to do, huh? Are you as powerful as your brother? Do you have a blessed mind like the descendant of Sitri around here? Can you live a torturous life until you reach the necessary power as the current heir of the great King Bael? Do tears heal serious wounds? "

"I... I will become the champion of the Rating Game, just like my dream! Yes, I will make my dream come true!" Rias told me strongly, with absolute confidence. But her tears kind of destroyed the image in my eyes.

"How long?"

"There is?"

After Rias gave me a clueless answer, I scoffed at her.
