Nakiri-kun began to explain what he meant by accessing the game’s system by using a cellphone. “For example, when you want to learn magic that enables you to know about your opponent’s information or skills, you point your cellphone at your opponent.”
Nakiri-kun held his cellphone up and pointed it at Xenovia. “After that, open the picture mode. And if you invoke the magic or skill—”
A picture of Xenovia was displayed on Nakiri’s smartphone. The word [Guest] was displayed above her head, and there was also a detailed numerical display of her current HP and status (good). [Ooh!] Everyone who looked at the screen was astonished. Nakiri-kun then pointed his smartphone away from everyone. “Next is magic. After selecting the area by framing it on your phone…if you push this button…”
A burst of flames spread out in front of Nakiri-kun. After framing the area with the camera, the shown environment became engulfed as the flame magic was invoked. Nakiri then said. “When you want to use a ranged attack, use the camera like this, and you can attack or recover the area that is shown. Well, you can still use magic without having to point the camera though. There are also times when irregular magic is used over a large area, like freezing or petrification. Also, this is going to be beneficial if you guys know—”
He took out a plastic bottle that was filled with juice, and put it in front of him so that he could frame it within the screen of his smartphone. ‘Click’ after taking the photo of the bottle—. That plastic bottle became enveloped in light and was attracted towards Nakiri-kun’s smartphone. The plastic bottle that was in front of him earlier had now completely vanished. Nakiri-kun then showed us his smartphone screen. There appeared to be an items menu, where the item [Juice x1] was displayed. “You can store things like this in your cell phone by capturing it, because your cell phone also acts as an item box. Thus, in [Beelzebut], a cell phone is needed to be able to do a lot of things.”
And with that, we received a simple explanation from him. Some of our comrades who weren’t used to cell phones were struggling a little bit. The hardest thing was to teach Crom Cruach so that he didn’t destroy the phone. It was unexpected that His Eminence Strada instantly grasped and understood the [Beelzebut] system. “Fufufu, the latest technology sure is valuable. Even with my smartphone, I’m starting to become fond of social network games.”
Gasper looked at His Eminence’s phone screen and exclaimed in surprise
“Amazing, you have so many 5-star characters!”
…His Eminence Strada sure did a great job of astonishing us. Shirone-chan A.K.A Koneko-chan and Xenovia, seemed familiar with [Beelzebut], so they taught those who didn’t understand the system. It seemed like Koneko-chan and Xenovia had registered as players beforehand via Nakiri-kun and Millarca-san (a classmate and member of the student council) since it looked like they already knew about this [Game] to a certain extent. Koneko-chan was the type that liked games after all. The one who struggled the most at understanding the system was Bova-san. Because his body was so big, he had to turn into a mini dragon to operate his cell phone. “……I don’t understand this part.”
“Hmm, this part is like this.”
Nakiri-kun gave him his undivided attention as he taught him. It seemed like the relationship between the Sekiryuutei’s fang and fist was good. While receiving guidance on how to operate a cell phone, Bova-san said
“We can only thank you for letting us train in this place too.”
Nakiri then answered
“It’s not only Gremory-senpai’s team and us, but everyone who is related to the counter-terrorist team [DxD] can train here. So far as it goes, Ajuka-san said that this special training space is an area that has just been added to the game. It also seems like the other [DxD] members have already started”. Well, that means that Sitri Team, Sairaorg-san and Seekvaira Agares-san’s teams, Vali’s team and the reincarnated Angels too were going to train here. While looking at the vast green fields, Irina-san asked Nakiri-kun
“Is it safe here?”
“According to Ajuka-san — [It can’t be said as certain. —However, the security here is ten times better than the space they were using. And no matter how flashy you train, it can’t be destroyed. That’s why I want you to rest assured] was what I heard.”
The security was better than the space in the Gremory territory, huh. Even though the security of the space there was pretty high too. But, if this place was really created by the current Beelzebub’s servant, it must be safer than the place we trained at. …Although, we did have some lingering attachments to that place. After all, my comrades and I supported each other and worked hard together in that place. I also did some practice battles with Ise-kun there. I am sure that Ise-kun thinks the same. Nakiri-kun then gave us the last explanation
“—And, well, there are systems and all of that, but it seems that this place that Ajuka-sama has prepared for us has been designed so that it doesn’t differ too much from ordinary space. You can also suppress the game-like damage notation, and use your abilities like normal. The system doesn’t interfere that much either. You should be able to train like usual. However, please always bring your phone and don’t let your smartphone be separated from you.”
Although it was a field in the [Beelzebut] game, I guess we could still train as usual. We were grateful. “For now, everyone please try to do your usual training by yourself.”
“We should start too.”
Rias-oneesan and Ravel-san instructed their respective teams as the training session began. And with this, we, Rias Gremory’s team + Ise-kun’s team underwent a joint training session inside [Beelzebut]. —And, while getting used to the game’s system everyone trained on their own. The area prepared for us to train was not only a grassy field, but there were also forests, mountains, and lakes, plus an underground dungeon and a castle, and even a floating island. We were surprised by the fact that the vastness of this field created in another dimension was as big as the Kantou region. The real Beelzebut] was even larger than this, as it was said to be as large as the Australian continent. Just in case, so that we don’t get in contact with the players that were playing in the original game, a special wall was built around the training ground. Because the players there didn’t know a thing about supernatural beings, surely meeting Devils, Angels, and Dragons would just create chaos. Everyone was told to train wherever they wished to by Rias-oneesan and Ravel-san, but because the field was too big, they were also told at the same time to do it in a nearby place so they didn’t get lost. Well, it also seems like it was designed so that we won’t get lost even if we go far away…
It was now a quick break time, and the place that we all teleported to — was our starting point.
