Start By Becoming A Mangaka

"17," Koneko said.

"I am in the middle. I am number 26," Kiba said with a small laugh.

"Ufufufu, I am the last," Akeno said while showing a number 32 to everyone.

"We\'re going to be separated," Issei seemed quite depressed.

"Don\'t worry, Issei. You\'re very strong. You have beaten Bael-san in the past," Kiba said.

Issei knew that he had beaten Sairorg but he knew that he wouldn\'t beat Sairorg without the help of both Koneko who had drained Sairorg\'s stamina in the early game and Akeno who fought bravely before him. He clenched his hand and nodded, "I\'ll defeat the examiner!"

"Good! That\'s the spirit," Kiba nodded.

"Kiba, are you confident?" Akeno asked.

"Yes," Kiba nodded and said, "I would have never thought that I would be here standing with everyone for the promotion test and that\'s why I have to succeed on this promotion test no matter what."

"That\'s good but you don\'t need to overdo it. Rias isn\'t going to do anything when the result isn\'t that good. I am sure that she will try to pamper you when you\'ve failed your exam," Akeno said.

"Pamper me?!" Issei suddenly imagined that he could touch Rias\'s b.r.e.a.s.ts and let out his perverted laugh.

"....."

"Issei-kun. Your face," Kiba said.

"O - Oh!!!"

"The matches will occur with two pairs fighting at once! First, [1] and [2], [3] and [4] will start their matches!"

Suddenly they heard an announcement from the staff.

"It looks like I\'m first," Issei said.

"Good luck."

"I am sure that you can do it."

"Fight."

Issei nodded, "I - I will go first." He walked to the location of the exam with a firm expression.

"...."

Kiba, Koneko, and Akeno looked at his back.

"I am not sure, but I am worried for some reason," Koneko said.

"Ufufufu, he\'s a \'boob dragon\' after all," Akeno said.

"Don\'t worry, Issei-kun will succeed on this exam," Kiba said.

They nodded and watched Issei who had entered the circular battlefield made by Demonic power.

Issei stood up on the battlefield and felt a bit nervous. He started to think about his strategy. He knew that he could use a promotion on this test and decided to promote directly when he saw his opponent. He wanted to use True-Queen, the move that he had developed when he was fighting against Sairorg but it was still unstable. He was thinking about how to fight but his opponent had appeared in front of him.

"Both of you are ready then?"

Issei nodded and looked at the man in front of him. He knew that he couldn\'t underestimate this devil since this man had the power to become an examiner.

"Please start!"

"Promotion [Queen]!" Issei didn\'t hesitate to do promotion directly.

The opponent raised his hand and started to shoot an orb of fire toward Issei, "Ha!"

Issei, who had used his promotion, needed time before he could use his \'balance breaker\'. He dodged his opponent\'s attack while buying time for his move.

"Freezing Archaeopteryx."

Suddenly cold chills were surrounding the man\'s area and he started to gather air in the air before creating a gigantic bird.

\'Sacred Gear!\' Issei knew that this attack would be very dangerous but luckily the countdown was over and he could use his \'balance breaker\'.

"Balance Breaker!" A red aura covered his body and it shaped into the shape of armor.

Issei raised both of his dragon\'s wings and charged toward the man with his booster.

*GOOOO!!!!!!

Issei moved very fast toward the gigantic bird that was made from ice while raising his fist toward it.

*BAAAM!!

The bird was shattered just by his fist and his fist continued before hitting his opponent.

*BAAAM!!!

His opponent flew directly from the battlefield and crashed into the wall before going through it

"...."

Everyone was stupefied looking at his power.

"..."

Issei was also stupified since he thought that it was very easy.

"Number [4], Hyoudou Issei wins!"

"...."

Issei returned his armor and went back to everyone.

"Good job, Issei," Kiba praised.

"Congrats," Koneko nodded.

"Ufufufu, you can use this as a chance to ask Rias on a date," Akeno said.

Issei smiled while scratching his head in shy since he didn\'t expect to win this easy. He felt that he had done something bad to his opponent earlier.

"It\'s my time," Koneko said.

They had been waiting for a while before it was Koneko\'s time to start his exam.

"Koneko-chan! Do your best!" Issei said.

Kiba and Akeno also cheered on her together.

Koneko nodded and entered the same battlefield that Issei had entered earlier.

The opponent that had become her opponent was a bit worried toward Koneko since he knew that the peerage members of Rias Grimory were very strong. He knew that he needed to use all of his power or else he would lose in this battle.

"Are you ready?"

Koneko and her opponent gave the referee a small nod, telling him that they were ready.

"Please start!"

Her opponent started his magic to shoot Koneko with a bombardment of magic missile only suddenly someone appeared in front of him and gave him an uppercut straight into his chin.

*BAAAM!!!

Her opponent flew directly to the sky then fell to the ground after losing his consciousness.

"...."

"Number [17], Koneko Toujou wins!"

Everyone started to mutter and thought that the people from Rias Gremory\'s peerage were very dangerous and strong.

The examiner who was in charge of the Rias Gremory\'s peerage knew that they needed to prepare themselves or they would be beaten badly by them.

Koneko walked back to everyone and received congratulations from everyone.

Azazel was quite drunk but he watched the examination with a smile, "You sure are lucky to have such a strong peerage."

Rias smiled and was quite proud of her peerage, "Yes."

"Nice, Shirone, nyaa!" Kuroka was happy while hugging him tightly.

"..."

"There is something hard...." Ophis who was sitting on his lap said.

"..."
