they didn't have to die." Ritsuka answered neutrally enough. He didn't actually know whether that was good or bad. Morally it was good… but tactically it might have been pretty bad.
Ritsuka was working for a devil… albeit in the loosest sense of the word possible. Okada would have called him very mercenary about his idea. He would have likened it to being like Muramasa's mindset about doing a job regardless of how someone felt about it.
"It may cause problems later though… but we're strong enough to deal with them without too much trouble." Rias assured him with a pat on the back though her hand lingered a bit longer than she was planning.
"Then I agreed to something for whatever was on that paper you gave him." Ritsuka mentioned softly under his breath. This was the part he was dreading.
"Yes… I was told that. Why?" Rias stared directly into his eyes. Her's were smoldering and looking for any reason to less loose with scolding him… though hesitancy plagued her facade.
"Based on how he said it… I think he was talking about a person. That person was probably going to be used by the Fallen Angels that I took care of for unspeakable reasons… only unspeakable because he never gave specifics.
" Ritsuka recounted his own conjectures giving them a voice of confidence in order to sell the idea. He actually wasn't completely sure that that was the case but he didn't want to be wrong and unable to do anything.
"Hmm… fine. We'll skip the scolding. You at least have a good reason though I can't help to wonder why you're so confident that this is the case.
For all we know Azazel is just using this as an excuse to spy on you… though he knows more than he should already so it's not saying much." Rias grumbled with her arms crossed which for some reason made her breasts jiggle.
'Did she do that on purpose… also what kind of world did I end up in where even the slightest movement makes everything jiggle…' Ritsuka mused as he looked up.
As much as he could tell that they wanted him to ogle them, Ritsuka wasn't going to be distracted by the sexiness so easily.
"I think it happens this Saturday and it's Thursday right now." Ritsuka mentioned.
School had been the same… though for some reason Issei wasn't at school that day. It also meant that the Pervert Duo were beaten for peeping on the kendo club a bit harsher than usual.
Akeno seemed much quieter than usual though that didn't stop her flashing her body for Ritsuka when they were alone. Shame probably didn't exist in her infatuation.
Koneko had also been a bit more affectionate albeit subtler. Whenever he sat on the couch near her the space between them gradually thinned.
The only bright side was that he hadn't been invaded during the night. His door was locked as soon as he entered and it hadn't been tampered with either. He didn't know why but he wasn't going to say anything that would cause it to happen again.
"At least it happens on the weekend… we shall have Kiba tail you that day. I don't want to have any surprises happen again." Rias wearily sighed as she thought back to the previous night when he walked in injured carrying three wings that had been cut off.
That was something she wanted to avoid seeing again… also to not get swept into her own feelings as well.
'Can't let that happen again… almost decided right then and there to lose my virginity both because of what I saw and what was on my mind.
It has to be for the right reasons and not out of convenience.' Rias slightly pouted as she remembered vividly what she saw and started blushing to her embarrassment.
You okay?" Ritsuka called out breaking her from her revelry. "You're turning red and I'm worried you might be catching something."
She could feel the warmth of his hand against her forehead and the closeness of his breath with every exhale. It just kept reminding her that if she wanted to… if she asked, she could break the arrangement with just a few actions.
Grayfia hadn't made herself known to Ritsuka since Sirzechs told her not to do so unless absolutely necessary. That meant… she had enough time.
The concern in his eyes for her just cemented the fact that she would be fine with it. Still, the only hesitation she felt was the need to officially annul everything. A relationship, even one that wouldn't last forever, shouldn't be built on trickery and deceit.
"No… you're fine. Maybe you just need something to drink…?" Ritsuka questioned.
"Yes! Yes… I'll get something. Go ahead and rest for tonight Ritsuka." Rias gulped slightly hiding it behind a small cough. "We'll be planning for this weekend, alright?"
"If you're sure… Goodnight Rias." Ritsuka hugged the now flustered devil princess as he left the living room for his own room.
`I'll never going to be able to sleep at this rate.' Rias sighed as she held her cheeks between her hands as her face burned red from the soft contact as their bodies slightly mashed together. Trying to keep control was much harder than she thought.
Twelve days… that was how long Ritsuka had been in this world. He had actually counted the days and as he did so, his smile was wearing thin.
It was certainly the longest he had been without contact with Chaldea. Even while in Shimousa he had only been out of contact for eight days at most.
It was hard to tell when the swordmasters would appear under a blood red moon.
Something was very different that day though. It all started with Issei… who looked much more aware now. He also seemed to have some strange magical signature around him at this point.
It wasn't the weird thing that Ritsuka felt a few days ago… it felt similar to Raynare. The smug look he held whenever their gazes met was unsettling.
