Gotta go fast!

Back in the backward, Julian paused for a moment before taking out a rock the size of his palm.

Grasping it in his right hand, he clenched gradually harder on it, stopping only when the stone exploded from the pressure.

'I used around half of my strenght for this, but where does this make my strenght at exactly? Without reference, I have no way to accuratly gauge where it put me on the supernatural ladder. I think with the speed I displayed earlier today with spy girl, my explosive strenght should be around 25 five times that of a grown man."

Doing some quick math inside his head. Julian came with a result that still baffled him despite him stopping to be human twelve years ago.

'Hot damn! I can run 166 meters a second at my fastest!? That's 6 seconds the kilometer!'

It wasn't even the end of it, as he entered his puberty only recently. His physical strenght would or even already had entered an exponential growth.

Seeing as it was useless to test his current limits as they wouldn't be the same tomorow. Julian gave up and decided to try his hand at chess as well as compare the animes of this world to the animes of his previous one.

As the current year was 2003, plenty of things were not even invented or published yet. It was a recurent theme in fanfics. But in a world of modern setting, the anime related to their own world didn't exist as it would be pretty illogical as it featured the future. Heck, in 2003, the best cellphone of the year was the Nokia 6600.

'A freaking Nokia! I should tell mom to buy me one, now that would be an accurate way to measure my strenght.'

As he pondered over why the Nokia was not in the top 10 strongest existence in DxD, or every modern world for that matter. Julian suddenly facepalmed.

"No way! Why are we even staying alone in our respective home when we could both chill together? That's retarded. Besides, hentai should be something you watch with the boys."

Julian grabbed some snacks and VHS movies and proceeded to barge in his friend's home uninvited.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day, Julian found himself seated beside Issei in a auditorium listening to the speech of his new director.

It was all but a basic and simple one from the short and plump man on the podium. But a single important detail made Julian gaze at the man with some surprise and his usual slight smile.

Despite his normal appearance, Julian could feel a demonic aura emanating from him.

'it seems the devils are keeping a close eye on Kuoh town, but is it the same for each of the town's school or not?"

This question came to be because there wasn't any devils presence in his old school.

"I welcome and hope you all a great year in this school. Thank you."

His first day of middle school quicly came to pass. As well as the next day, and the next. Sometime later in his first year, he and Issei encountered a wild Matsuda and Motohama as they weren't in the same class as them this year.

At the start they were just rambling and cursing him and Issei, because as they were in DxD, every fucking girls in the school had a crush on Julian since the day he entered the school. Same thing as elementary school really.

But they quickly got it on after they connected through all of them being men of culture. Still, Julian being a Ikemen stayed a sore point for the both of them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- 4 years later.

Four seventeen years boys were currently laying on a grassed area in the school territory.

From right to left were Julian, Issei, Matsuda and Motohama.

"We did it huh? We passed the exams for Kuoh high." Issei muttered excitedly.

"Was it supposed to be hard?" Julian picked his ear with his pinky, fully knowing he was flexing.

Matsuda got up on his elbows and pointed at him accusingly while yelling. "Speak for yourself you bastard! We're not some freak who created a new syndrome by being a genius in everything!" Matsuda was almost crying at the unfairness of life.

"Well duh, I know you're not. It's pretty obvious." Julian smiled smugly.

Matsuda lost all purposes in life and let himself fall back on the grass.

Motohama who stayed silent since the beginning sighed. "Give up Matsuda, we are but mere mortals while his power level is over nine thousands."

Julian's smile got sarcastic. "Thank for the praise, but It'll not stop me from beating you guys up as hard as before if you try to peer in the girls lockeroom again. We're all gentlemen here, and 2d girl shouldn't affect the like of us. Joke aside, you know that since the legal age in Japan is 14, any of these girls could fill in a complaint for sexual harrasment right? A fine or some time in prison was to be expected and a criminal profile would be created in your name. Any of this things could make void your right to attend Kuoh High. So, by all mean, don't thank me."

At this, both Matsuda and Motohama became pale and gulped down some saliva while gazing into each other eyes.

They both promptly got up and almost teleported themselves before Julian in a dogeza position. Promptly and sincerely saying in a loud voice. "Thank you for deigning to waste your kindness on foolish individuals such as ourselves venerable one."

Julian waved it off. "Stop it guys, or you'll make my already enormous ego colapse on itself and become a black hole."

Of course Julian was lying, kind of. Even If the scenario he described was indeed a realistic one. Then why the perverted trio never was brought to before justice in canon? It was a mystery that Julian had thought for a time before coming to an answer.

The answer his big brain came with was extremelly simple but nonetheless essential. As they were in DxD, every fucking girls in the world or at least shown in canon and in Kuoh high were perverts.

That's right, the only possible reasons Julian could come with was that either it was simple plot armor, or that the girls kinda liked being peep on. This realization made Julian speechless for a time.

But at the same time, he should have expected it when he choose DxD as his rebirth world.

But the worst thing was that he didn't even remember the reason why he choose DxD as the world to live his second life on, was his subconcious horny enough to choose an harem world as his destination?

It was a deep question that Julian refused to acknowledge his need to delve on.

He didn't want to be horny, he just want to be happy.

"Tchh, I can't believe this dude is really the idol of every girls in the school. The world is truly cruel." Matsuda lamented.

"Well, I don't really know what to say. If you want to be like me, just get a prodigy syndrome and an handsome face first." Julian answered uncaringly.

"Hey, I resent that." Issei quipped.

"Don't worry dude, at least compared to them, you're in a better position." Julian assured his friend.

Issei eyed up Matsuda and Motohama and replied shortly. "Not hard to beat."

The two teens who were already dead inside from Julian's comment couldn't even be resurected after Issei's one.

Both Julian and Issei laughed at their expression and the group decided it was time to go home.

Matsuda and Motohama splited up from the other two as their house were not in the same neighborhood.

As they were walking, Julian teased Issei. "So, ready to embark on the path of an harem king?"

Issei laughed while scratching the back of his head. "I'm not certain of my success with you around, are you sure you aren't the one who want to be an harem king?"

Julian put his arms behind his head. "Nah, It may be incredibly arrogant, but if a girl want my attention, then she better impress me in some way. After all, I could waltz up to any beautifull girl I see and ask them on a date and I'm pretty sure they'll accept. But that's not beauty that I seek. No, it's complicity, friendship, and love. My dream girl would be someone who could stand at my side and truly help me, even with my abnormality. It may be delusional, but that's still what I want."

Issei gazed at his best friend with admiration, surprise and some confusion. Rarely would Julian speak of his true wants, of his dreams for the future. "Wow, now my dream of being an harem king seem pretty shallow. I didn't realize before how your prodigy syndrome could be such a bother for complicity, as nobody can truly see what you see, or understand what you understand."

After a moment, Issei asked. "There is something I don't understand though. Me, Matsuda and Motohama choose to enlist at Kuoh high because it was previously an all girl school. But if you don't really care about ordinary girls, or in your case, about education at all. Why did you follow us to it and not go your own way?"

Julian smiled mysteriously. "I couldn't possibly let you alone with these two idiots, or they'll run your reputation along with them in the mud. Also, I feel that our time in Kuoh high will be pretty interesting."

Issei was even more confused, but just shrugged it of. Julian sometime got into this 'mysterious mode' and said strange things. Like when some time ago he asked Julian what was the thing behind his magic trick which made a stone disappear and each time he would answer that it was because of his power of destruction.

Arriving at their house, the two separated. "Don't forget our boxing practice in two hours Issei." Julian waved at him.

Issei reciprocated and entered his home.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Julian was currently lying on his bed, eyes closed, arms behind his head and his legs crossed, in disbelief at the fact that the plot was finally beginning soon. It would be soon time for him to begin his life as a supernatural being.

Oppening his eyes, he decided it was time to test his full strength to be prepared for any future fights.

Jumping from his window to the street bellow, he tensed his knees and began to run at full speed towards the outside of the city.

He could see the surrounding houses blurring and feel the normally soothing wind becoming a blade against his thick skin. He couldn't hear any sound anymore either.

It was difficult to estimate, but he would put his speed a little above supersonic level, or more than 343+ meters per second, maybe even 500.

Only a minute later and Julian found himself outside in the forested area outside of Kuoh town.

Now was the problem on how to stop.

As he was navigating between the trees with the help of his reaction speed that was fortunately at the same level as his speed. He decided to use demonic power and tried to transfer his momentum to a three he briefly touched with his hand.

Losing a portion of his forward speed, Julian watched as the three he just made contact with exploded in slow motion in a million splinters.

Four more trees and Julian finally could stop himself normally.

'Did I just create a new move?' Julian thought funnily while gazing at the pulverised trees.

Nevertheless, it was good that he found the problem that was stopping himself while running at full speed as it would be pretty embarassing if he only discovered it in the middle of a fight.

Realistically, he estimated that he could only use a tenth of his speed to fight even if his reflexes were up to par, as he couldn't control how to go from full speed to stationary safely or without giving an opportunity to his ennemies.

After nodding at his own thoughts, Julian set his eyes on the thickest tree around to see where his overall muscles strenght was at.

Positioning himself before it, he firmly planted his feet on the ground and put his right palm on its bark.

Then, he pushed on it. At first, lightly, before augmenting little by little the strenght of his push.

It didn't take long for the tree to begin making creaking sounds and tilting a bit.

*CRACK*

It seemed the pressure was too much for the wood, as the tree fractured in two,

the segment opposed to where his palm was placed on the bark of the tree exploding.

'Damn, it was like I wasn't even pushing against anything.' Julian eyed his palm a little stunned, it was just too much of a strange feeling. Easily doing a feat of strenght that was impossible in his previous life still made Julian think that he was in a dream sometime, same thing happened with the rock he crushed when he was 12.

He came back from his stupor and grinned while talking out loud. "Let's have some fun, shall we?"

You could almost feel the trees around him shudder in fright and aprehension.
