Currently, her large and prominent oppai which were usually concealed under her nun’s uniform appeared in front of me! Compared to her original plain colour and pure image, there was a large contrast after she wore a bikini, which generated a strong sense of attraction! Her dazzling white skin was too perfect! She sat beside me on the diving platform. “…Slashing Princess, that was Xenovia’s title when she was a warrior. Using Excalibur and Durandal, she killed and defeated many enemies of the Church.”
I’ve heard of this before. I’d heard that during her time with the Church, as a swordsman of God, she had executed devils, vampires and various monsters. Because she showed no mercy in killing her enemies, people didn’t understand her and along with her inaccessible personality, at some point people began making fun of her by calling her [Slashing Princess]. Sister Griselda continued. “She’s a child who needs a lot of care. Because we’ve been in the same facility, I was selected to be responsible for taking care of her, but no matter what I said, she grew big and tall, I taught her the minimum behaviour she should have as a lady, I’ve already done all I can.”
At first glance, she seemed to be complaining, but looking closer at her face, it was as if she was talking about a younger sister, with a smile full of warmth. “Ever since she met her partner of the same age — Irina, she would occasionally show the expression that a girl of her age should.”
As Sister Griselda said, to become Xenovia’s partner, the person who was with her long-term, the first person to do that was Irina. It was said that most people who became Xenovia’s partner afterwards, were unable to adapt to her personality or fighting style, rejecting partnership the next time. This meant that only Irina was able to adapt to Xenovia’s personality and fighting style. To me, it’s because both of them were girls who had quirky personalities. I’d say that the combination of their quirky personalities formed a good chemistry, they were like kindred souls, hence they became partners. With a smile, Sister Griselda said
“When I heard that she’d become a devil, I fainted on the spot, but seeing her now occasionally worried, occasionally laughing, I feel that this is good.”
I followed Sister Griselda’s gaze, noticing Irina, Asia and Xenovia together. She was watching the faces of those three in conversation with each other. Three people laughing together, it was truly a heartwarming scene—. “I heard that she plans to become the Student Council President.”
“Yeah. At first I thought she was joking, but it seems that she was serious. After school, she and her friends stayed back to have a strategy meeting for the election.”
“She really is enjoying school life.”
Sister Griselda truly felt joy from the bottom of her heart for the changes in Xenovia. Although she normally appears to be strict towards Xenovia, I think the truth is that they really care about each other. She said to me solemnly
“Hyoudou Issei-kun, please, please take good care of that child.”
“Yes, of course! But I have to say, I don’t think I’m of much use. How about this, I think letting her be together with Asia, Irina and her classmates would be much better for her.”
However, Sister Griselda listened to me and shook her head. “Although what you say is correct…I’m talking about her as a woman. Ohh, I see. Living with several girls must be difficult.”
After giving me an understanding smile, Sister Griselda stood up and left with a “Goodbye” and headed towards Xenovia. I got concerned for a moment thinking that I’d said something wrong, but then I saw Sister Griselda scolding Xenovia …humpf, that Xenovia is really…
Whatever, just being able to see a Sister in a bikini was an enjoyable experience! Every part of it was precious, I must record it into my memory. While I was doing that, I heard the Vali team’s conversation. “Hey, Vali. Can you do me a favour when we’re free which can reduce my sins? Doesn’t the work that [DxD] does seem better?”
It was Bikou. To which Vali replied
“I want to spend my time on attacking Rizevim and evil dragons, as well as training my own power. Sorry, tasks like that should be given to Kuroka or Le Fay.”
Vali directly refused. He would occasionally show such an expression when he was training. But his primary opponents were strong people like the First Generation Sun Wukong-jisanand Dulio. He came over today, one reason was to provide his opinion, and the other reason was probably because he became interested in my new technique. “I heard rumours that people who started the Church’s rebellion were holy sword wielders, which is highly interesting.”
Arthur adjusted his glasses, smiling contemptuously. That guy seems like he’s doing things according to his own motives…. Hearing Arthur’s words, Vali said
“Yes, Arthur. What do you plan to do this time? Very soon the legendary wielders of holy swords may be arriving here.”
Hearing this, Arthur stroked his chin, then eagerly said “That wouldn’t be a bad idea” and laughed. …From what I can see, Arthur is probably the most difficult to deal with in the Vali team. On the other hand, Bikou and I could get along with each other. Where the three males of the Vali team were conversing, another person was approaching them—. “Vali, you shouldn’t make things too difficult for Azazel-san.”
—It was Slash Dog Tobio Ikuse-san. Seeing Ikuse-san appear, Vali shrugged. “…It’s Tobio. Since you’re here, whether it’s a matter related to Azazel or [DxD], there should be no problems.”
“But if you’re here, things should be even better, Vali.”
“I’d actually like to have a fight with you. —I’d really like to settle the scores from last time.”
Vali’s expression showed that he was ready for a fight. —But, Ikuse-san shook his head. “If you want a fight then you should fight with the Sekiryuutei. Besides, I’m not your destined opponent.”
Hearing this, Vali laughed loudly, then turned around to leave. “Hold on, Vali. Anyway, you should at least listen to the planned schedule after today.”
After Ikuse-san finished speaking, Vali stopped walking, and said without turning around
“…I know. But I’m going to go back up first.”
—Uhhh. …Seeing Vali readily accept someone else’s opinion, I couldn’t hide my surprise. …Woah, that guy, actually said something like that to someone other than Azazel-sensei…. Shortly after I watched their exchange, Ikuse-san noticed me and began walking over. “Yo, Hyoudou Issei-kun. Perhaps you saw something unusual just then.”
“No, that wasn’t the case…”
“About Vali, I need to thank you for dealing with him.”
Ikuse-san thanked me. “…It’s a surprise, that Ikuse-san would actually say something like that to me.”
“Well, I should after all that’s happened.”
Saying so, he took out a photograph. —In the photo was Ikuse-san when he was a student, as well as other boys and girls who appeared to be his companions. One of them was a girl dressed up as a magician and a brown haired delinquent.
