Koneko brought Y/n back to school property, but instead of entering the main building, she led him through a small section of forest, where an old, rundown building was placed. As they got closer,
Y/n could feel the magic surrounding this place. He could already tell that there were three individuals within the building, mostly likely Koneko's comrades.

They entered through the main entrance, and Y/n felt the effects of a barrier, as the interior of the building appeared clean and lush. A classic illusion, an old rundown building from the outside, a neat and clean headquarters on the inside. The pair walked to another set of doors, and could hear voices on the other side. Koneko placed a hand on the door knob, and turned it. As she entered, she noticed a blonde boy sitting on a couch, while Rias was at her desk, Akeno standing by her side. The three of them turned to face the Y/n and petite girl.

"Koneko, welcome back And you brought a friend. Who might you be?" Rias fully knew the name of this boy, but chose to play clueless.

"My name's Y/n L/n, it's a pleasure to meet you Miss Gremory, younger sister to Lord Sirzechs Lucifer" he bowed.

A collection of gasps arose from the Devils, who were shocked, not only at the fact that Y/n knew they were Devils, but also the fact that he knew Rias was directly related to the Devil King.

"Relax, I'm not here to start anything," Y/n said calmly, "I just want to talk".

The tension in the room died down, although they still remain wary.

"Sit down then" Rias instructed, "Akeno, would you please prepare some tea?"

"Of course President" she bowed and exited the room. Y/n took a seat on a couch across from the blonde boy, with looks that could make any girl fall for him.

"Kiba", he waved

"L/n", he replied.

Rias stood up from her desk and walked around to where Kiba was, taking a seat beside him.

"So Y/n, the first question on my mind is how you knew about us".

"Your powers", he told her blatantly, "I'm able to sense any aura, no matter how small. I can also tell weather someone is a Devil, Fallen Angel, Angel, or Human, based on their power level".

"Impressive", Kiba complemented.

"Thanks. Before you ask, I do not possess a Sacred Gear, and no, I don't need to. I've learned my fair share of elemental magic, and I can get freaky with a sword if I have to".

"You seem rather skilled for human", Rias inquired.

"That's not all", Y/n chuckled. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small knife. "Let me show you something".

He held the blade to his palm and cut it, blood spilling from his open wound. The faces of those around him stared in horror, something that amused Y/n. Before anyone could speak up, steam began to emit from the injury and after a few seconds, it was completely healed.

"That is the power of a Titan shifter", Rias claimed, her mouth agape, "I thought the last Titan shifters were wiped out years ago!"

"A common misconception", Y/n told her, putting the blade away, "In actuality, my ancestor at the time, Hraiden L/n stole all seven Titans from their inheritors, after which he fled to the over world. Ever since, the powers have been past down through the L/n bloodline generation after generation in secret".

"Until you received them", Rias said.

"Exactly", Y/n nodded, leaning back on the couch, "I control the Attack, Armored, Cart, Jaws, War Hammer, Beast, and Colossal Titans, as well as the powers of the Versatile and Founding, although the Founder is useless nowadays".

"Quite a collection", Rias inquired, "It would be fair to say you've had experience with each form?"

"Indeed I have".

Akeno re-entered the room and served tea to both her President and their guest.

"This is quite good", Y/n complimented, taking a sip.

"Thank you Y/n", she bowed her head.

"Moving on", Rias interrupted, "Why are you telling us all of this?"

Y/n smiled and stood up, before bowing to the Devils in the room.

"Please allow me to join your peerage!"

"Huh?", Rias gasped.

"The power of the Titans has laid dormant for decades now", Y/n said, still bowing, "For too long, my ancestors held this power to themselves, yet rarely used it. I want to change that! I don't want to live a life with this power and not use it, not understand it. And I can't just ignore this responsibility placed upon my shoulders. It used to be that Titan Shifters protected the Underworld, I want to do that, not sit on my ass and hide from the world!"

A moment of silence went by as Rias and her household took in and processed everything Y/n had said. They had all heard rumors and conspiracies about Titan Shifters, but now they were confirmed.

"Raise your head", Rias told him, to which he complied, "I have no desire to decline you, yet I am skeptical simply because your aura is very faint".

Y/n chuckled and relaxed his body. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and let his aura stream out. Instantly, the entire room was engulfed with power, resonating from the H/c boy. Rias and Akeno stared in shock, Kiba's mouth practically hit the floor, and even Koneko was surprised. After a moment, Y/n hid his aura, allowing the fake, weaker one to take over.

"How about now?", he asked.

"That power...", Rias trailed off.

"That was incredible", Kiba murmured.

"I'm impressed that you can hide it that well", Akeno complimented, to which Y/n gave a small smile.

"I've been able to conceal my aura to the point where it's unnoticeable. It helps when you control seven gigantic beasts with their own unique abilities".

"These Titans...I would like to see them for myself", Rias claimed.

"Of course, it would be my pleasure. Although we'd need a space much bigger than this. And far more secluded".

"We'll worry about that later", Rias told him, standing up from the couch with Kiba, "In the meantime, it's become clear that your potential would serve the Gremory Peerage well. Fortunately, I believe I have the perfect piece for you".

She walked around to her desk and opened one of the bottom drawers. She pulled out a white chess piece, immediately recognized by Y/n as a rook.

"The rook piece, a symbol of pure strength", Y/n muttered.

"Indeed. It seems you already know how Peerages work".

"Well no, but I'm guessing its based off chess. Each person here as a specific piece assigned, depending on their skill trait. You, of course, are the King, Akeno is most likely the queen, Kiba's your trusty knight, and Koneko is a rook".

"How'd you know all that?", Akeno questioned.

"Again, I'm just guessing, but I knew Rias would be at the top, so I made an educated guess on the rest of you. So I'm to be a rook, like Koneko?"

"When you mentioned magic and swordsman ship, I wasn't sure which piece to give you, but including the power of the Titans makes it easier".

Y/n stood up for the couch and stepped in front of Rias.

"Are you ready?", she asked.

"Let's do it!", he replied.
