She then looked at Naruto and told him, "I'll now be telling you about your other duties as a devil. Koneko, can you get the fliers?"

Koneko nodded and stood up from her spot. Moving over to the nearby counter, she came back with several stacks of papers in her arms.

Placing them on the coffee table, she then sat back down and got back to eating without a word.

Naruto quickly took a flier to see that it had a type of miniature magic circle printed on it, as well as the words, 'We'll grant your wish.'

Rias quickly explained, "Devils are beings of desire. We form contracts with humans and fulfill their desires in return for compensation.

Since few humans are capable of drawing magical circles nowadays, we hand out these fliers with simplified summoning circles.

When a person's greed is powerful enough, it will summon us. We create a contract, and we are compensated for satisfying their desire."

Naruto tilted his head before asking curiously, "What sort of compensation do you mean?"

Rias quickly answered casually, "It matters on the job required. Money or objects of value are the typical payment.

Technically anything of value. We could even take their lives if the job is high enough, make them work as a servant in the Underworld for the rest of their lives. That is rare nowadays though. Very little is worth such a price."

"So we're basically random chores for money," Naruto deadpanned at her.

Rias just shrugged before explaining him matter-of-factly, "Devils need money as well. As a member of my peerage, you are technically considered a servant of the Gremory Clan. By doing this, you supplement the income of the Gremory Clan."

"Does it really make a difference? Is doing random chores really enough to provide that much of an income?" Naruto pointed out skeptically.

Rias didn't appear bother by his doubt, and explained calmly, "Right now, it really isn't. As a low-class devil, not much is expected of you.

While this doesn't apply to you much, Naruto-kun, most low-class devils are supported by their king's family. Akeno, Yuuto, Koneko.

Each of them lives rent free in an apartment complex owned by the Gremory Clan. We provide them with food, clothes, and handle almost all of their financial needs.

Doing these 'chores' for a small income is more a sign of gratitude than anything. The income is too little to completely reimburse the expenses, but it is more a duty than anything by this point.

This is simply what low-class devils are capable of at this point. As devils advance in rank, other methods of creating an income will become available that provide a lot more.

A mid or high-class devil is capable of performing duties that would match or exceed the financial demands their presence places on their king's family."

"Not to sound like a jerk, but doesn't that mean I'm exempt from this. I'm rich, and don't receive any financial support from your family," Naruto justified awkwardly.

"You are completely right in not needing to recompense my family," Rias admitted easily before elaborating, "But that doesn't mean you are excused from this entirely.

One of the first things evaluated when considering allowing a devil a promotion is the amount of income a devil brings in through this method.

The income provided by reincarnated devils is an important aspect of the Underworld economy, so it is an important aspect of being a devil. So you can't just be exempt from performing this duty entirely.

I can give you a book detailing the importance of reincarnated devil's incomes, and the effect these incomes have on the devil economy if you wish to gain a greater understanding on why you must perform these duties."

"I'll pass," Naruto replied quickly, holding his hands up to shield himself. He might be curious, but not near enough for him to read a book that is most likely boring as hell.

"I thought you would," Rias said with amusement in her voice. She was finally starting to understand Naruto.

He's surprisingly curious, but is laid back or lazy enough that he prefers to keep things simple.

"So I have to hand these out, and then do what the person wants? That sounds…rather sketchy to be honest," Naruto commented as he examined a flier again.

"Don't worry. You don't have to do whatever they want. While it is frowned upon to refuse too many requests, every devil has certain limits.

You don't have to have sex with clients, give them money, accept assassination requests, or anything else too extreme.

There are devils that specialize in such duties. Any such request goes to them. The magic circles can automatically detect the desires of the user, and the magic circles of the Gremory Clan won't activate for such people.

So you don't need to worry about such requests. You can also refuse any request you do end up receiving, but don't take it too far in refusing requests. Some tasks will be mildly annoying or embarrassing.

Koneko has a number of clients who ask her to wear cosplay outfits. Akeno is often asked to baby-sit children or clean up a dirty house.

Yuuto is often called just to listen to his client's talk about their troubles. Troublesome tasks, but not harmful," Rias explained coolly.

Naruto nodded in understanding. So these were like D-rank missions. The grunt work. A pain in the ass, but stuff everyone has to do at some point.

Looking at the large stack of fliers, Naruto asked in dismay, "And I have to hand all these out by hand?"

Grinning in amusement, Rias answered easily, "Yep. We usually use familiars to do it, but you still lack a familiar.

It is also part of the basics for newly reincarnated devils. Building a client base is the first and easiest step to gaining respect and status as a devil."

Akeno then pulled out a small red device and handed it to Naruto. He looked at it with a cocked head.

There was a small screen that turned into a radar device after Naruto pressed a button. Akeno quickly informed him, "This is a device developed by devils to aid in this task.
