Cherreads

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Alexander walked into the classroom with the effortless grace of a king entering his court. The air pressure seemed to drop the moment he stepped inside. He saw the "Power Four" of the school—Rias, Akeno, Sona, and Tsubaki—all gathered together.

Alexander's Inner Voice:

[Internal Thought: Sona-chan really does look the cutest today. That serious expression just makes me want to ruffle her hair. Honestly, if she's free later, I might just ask her on a date. A quiet cafe, maybe? She seems like the type who would enjoy a good book and some Earl Grey.]

The Fallout:

Akeno & Rias: Their smiles twitched. 'A date?! With Sona?!' The jealousy was thick enough to cut with a knife. Sona: She was already mentally picking out a dress, her heart hammering like a drum. Tsubaki: She adjusted her glasses, her hand trembling. 'Why not me too, Master?'

Alexander's Inner Voice:

[Internal Thought: I should probably mention to Serafall that Sona has that secret hobby. You know, the one where she dresses up in those elaborate outfits and takes photos? She keeps them hidden in her room. It's actually pretty impressive how much detail she puts into the cosplay.]

In the Underworld:

Serafall Leviathan didn't even wait for a teleportation circle. She smashed through the wall of her office, flew to the Sitri estate at Mach 5, and began tossing Sona's room like a professional burglar.

"FOUND THEM!" Serafall screamed, holding up a photo of Sona in a magical girl outfit. The Demon Lord's nose erupted like a volcano. "MY SO-TAN IS THE ULTIMATE IDOL! ALEXANDER-CHAN, YOU ARE A SAINT FOR TELLING ME!"

In the Classroom:

Sona Sitri's soul practically left her body. 'HE KNOWS?! AND HE TOLD MY SISTER?! I'M RUINED!' she screamed internally, her face a shade of red that shouldn't be biologically possible.

The "Ara Ara" Counter-Attack

Alex turned his attention to the Gremory duo. "Beautiful ladies, good morning," he said, his voice smooth as silk.

Rias managed a shaky "Good morning, Alexander," while Akeno leaned in with her signature mischievous smile. "Ara ara, Alex-kun~ You're quite the teaser today, aren't you? Are you trying to make us fall for you?"

On the Outside:

Alexander didn't back down. In one swift motion, he stepped into Akeno's personal space, trapping her against the wall in a perfect Kabedon. He lifted her chin with a single finger, leaning down until his lips were inches from her ear.

"What's the rush, my dear?" he whispered, his voice vibrating with the power of an Apex Dragon. "We have all the time in the world."

On the Inside:

[Internal Thought: Whoa, Akeno's skin is so soft. And she smells like rain and lilies. If I stay this close, I might actually lose my 'Stoic Heir' act. She's way too dangerous for my heart.]

The Result:

Akeno, the "Sadist" of the Occult Research Club, completely melted. Fumes literally started rising from her head. Her knees gave out, and she slid down the wall, her eyes swirling. She was no longer a "Onee-sama"—she was a blushing mess.

The rest of the girls in the classroom fell over like dominoes. The "Manliness Meter" had officially broken.

The Arrival of the Trash

Alex calmly walked over to his seat and sat down, crossing his legs with the elegance of a God.

Alexander's Inner Voice:

[Internal Thought: Okay, that was a bit much. I need to chill. Anyway, where is Malty? And her 'pawn' Issei? I can feel their weak, annoying mana signatures approaching. It's like the smell of a wet dog entering a flower shop. Time to put an end to this engagement. I have better things to do—like taking Sona on that date.]

Sona (still on the floor): 'HE'S STILL THINKING ABOUT THE DATE! YES!'

Rias (clinching her fist): 'Malty is dead. I'm going to personally help Alex throw her out of this school.'
