In a universe where gods, devils, and angels walk among mortals, there exists one being beyond them all: Rimuru Tempest, the Empress of Desire. After conquering her own world and winning the hearts of its strongest allies and rivals alike, she sets her gaze upon a new realm-the chaotic yet alluring world of High School DxD. But this isn't a conquest for power or territory; Rimuru craves something more...intimate. Her goal is to capture the hearts and loyalty of DxD's mightiest women, bringing them under her seductive spell and forming an unbreakable bond with the most powerful beings in this new universe.
Rimuru enters the DxD world with a divine beauty, charisma, and strength that eclipse even the Biblical God, radiating an aura that captivates anyone who beholds her. With her irresistible allure, she draws the attention of Heaven's angels, the most devout and untouchable among them. Archangel Gabriel is among the first to fall under Rimuru's charm, seeing her as a living incarnation of God and finding herself pulled toward Rimuru in ways she never thought possible. Even Michael, Heaven's steadfast leader, cannot deny the influence she wields, though he harbors mixed feelings about her growing influence over his people.
Meanwhile, devils and fallen angels feel an odd mix of admiration and rivalry for this mysterious deity who brings both peace and desire wherever she goes. Rias Gremory and her peerage are drawn to Rimuru, fascinated by her wisdom, beauty, and almost playful seductiveness. Akeno, the queen of seduction herself, finds a surprising match in Rimuru, who can turn her charm against even the most guarded of hearts. The enigmatic dragon Ophis, too, finds herself captivated by Rimuru's strength and allure, feeling a rare kinship and awe that she's never known.
As Rimuru weaves her way through the factions of DxD, she embarks on a quest to unite the beings of this world under her banner-not through war, but through love and loyalty.
A trip to Fiji with her dismissive boyfriend and his alluring mother lands Valentina into the most unexpected romance of her lifetime.
