“Rias, the next time we meet will be at the game.”
Saying that, Raiser disappears in the light of the magic-circle along with his servants. “……Shit.”
I was desperate in keeping my anger and regret within myself while lying down on my bed. After that, the club activity; Devil’s job, was cancelled. Buchou went deep inside the old school building together with Akeno-san. It seems like they are having a strategy meeting. It looks like they are making strategies for the [Rating game]. This will be Buchou’s first match. Of course she wants to cancel the club activity to build a strategy. ―In 10 days. That’s too soon. I wonder if we can gather the factors needed to defeat Raiser and his servants within that time. Well, it won’t change much if a [Pawn] like myself says it. More than that, I showed off in front of Buchou and provoked Raiser only to get beaten down by a small girl……
Uwaaaaah! Just remembering it makes me want to die because of the embarrassment and regret that I have! ……Sigh. I’m so weak. I then look at my left arm. The absolute power which is possessed in here. [Boosted Gear] which increases the power to no limits. But it has many weak points. That’s me, who is vulnerable. In other words “Pearl before swine”. Just like Raiser said. Shit! I’m so weak……
Harem-king. My dream. The Devil who accomplished making a harem. Raiser. What’s the difference between us? “Ah, shit!”
I got up from the bed and then start to mess my hair up. Buchou said she still didn’t want to get married. She said she didn’t want to get married if her husband is Raiser. She chose to battle Raiser in order to break off the engagement. I don’t know much about their household and relation between High-class Devils issues because it’s too complicated, but I will only fight for Buchou’s sake! I have a debt of gratitude towards Buchou. A lot in fact. I want to fight for Buchou. I need to support Buchou! Okay! From tomorrow morning I will start my training again! More like training for the whole day! I can skip school if I tell Buchou. I’m going to spend my next 10 days on training. I will contact Kiba so I can learn how to use swords. I will ask Akeno-san how to use demonic-powers as well. I will learn close combat from Koneko-chan! Yup! I have decided! My decision is made! I will train for the next 10 days! I started to feel a bit at ease after making my decision. Hmm, I will go and have a bath now. I went downstairs and got ready to take a bath. I went inside the bathroom while feeling fired up and then took my clothes off quickly. After I take a bath, I will talk to Asia about tomorrow. OPEN. It happens when I open the door. “Ah……”
“What the……”
Asia and I meet inside the bathroom. A naked me—
And a naked Asia—!! A blonde haired beauty is standing fully naked in front of me! What luck! No no no, I mean accident! She was inside!? Since I was thinking about many things, I forgot to check if anyone is inside! Asia’s body is wet because she was taking a shower. Her blonde hair which is wet with hot water is glued onto her soft looking white skin. I-It’s sexy. More than that, you have nice proportions……Asia……
Her tight hips. Your small buttock is so lovely, damn it! Her thighs aren’t too skinny nor too fat, just the right size for me. If I see these thighs when she wears a skirt, I will be down on my knees. And her oppai which you can’t possibly know when she wears her clothes. It’s not small, and it isn’t that bad! Asia……I’m glad you have grown this much…… No, it’s not the time for being emotional! Why on earth am I staring at her body!? Shit! Why don’t I have a three-size scouter! This is my second time regretting it! Next time I will seriously ask Motohama to teach me that ability! That's the ultimate power! Isn’t it more impressive than my Sacred Gear!? That’s not it! I shouldn’t be staring at her anymore! I-I need to protect her! I need to make sure she can live safely! That’s what I promised myself! And yet I got excited by looking at her naked body—
…………
C-Crap—!! If I look carefully, Asia’s gaze is moving down towards my crotch. —No! Asia! It’s too early for you to look at—. “…………”
I was too late covering my partner. “Kyaaa!”
And the one who screamed is me. What am I doing!? I accidentally screamed! I mean it’s embarrassing to have my partner exposed to a girl! “—Ah.”
Asia’s whole body starts to go really red, and she looks away. Hey hey, don’t forget to hide your private parts, Asia! I can see everything! Is my thing so astonishing that you forgot to hide your private parts!? Thinking carefully, this will be her first time seeing a guy’s thing since she was a Sister. The word astonishing won’t even describe how she is feeling right now. In the worst case, it might become a trauma for her. Oh my, what have I done to this poor child! “S-Sorry! I-I will leave now!”
I turned around on the spot so I can leave the bathroom. However—
Asia grabs my wrist as if she is trying to stop me from leaving. W-What’s going on, Asia-chan!? “…………I-I’m sorry. It was……my first time seeing a boy’s…… I’m sorry……”
I couldn’t hear what she said because she said it while mumbling. Don’t push yourself. “N-No, I’m sorry too…… I came in without checking…… I’m sorry, I saw a lot of your……”
I apologised as well. I’m the one at fault here. I came in without checking who was inside the bath. I should have checked even if it wasn’t locked. After all, we got an additional new family member. But I saved the image of Asia’s naked body within my memory. Forgive me if I start remembering this afterwards. “No, I understand…… Everyone told me about the rule when you have a bath in Japan, s-so I’m all right……”
Asia says it shyly. Huh? S-She was told? Rule? Japanese rule for what? “In Japan, I heard that there is the thing called having a bath together…… That you get to know each other by having a bath together……”
—!! W-Who was it!? Who told Asia this wonderful……no! Who told Asia this weird information!? No, that’s not a mistake. There certainly is a thing like that in Japan. But that’s only between the same genders! Asia continues while having her cheeks go red. “……I-I was told……to do this with someone I want to form a special relationship with…… I-I don’t mind if its Ise-san……no, I want to deepen my relation with Ise-san even more…… That’s why will you have a bath together with me……?”
NOSEBLEED! So much blood comes out from my nose. Lately it has been happening a lot! …………Wait. It will be dangerous if it stays like this any longer, Asia. I-I’m also a guy. I will lose myself if I hear a magic word like that! This girl doesn’t know what will happen to me if I did. I mean, Asia believes in me from the bottom of her heart. If I become a wolf and push her down—. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! I can’t do that! No, I want to! But I can’t! I mean, it’s this girl! It seems like she will forgive me even if I do her! I can’t do something like that to someone innocent like her! Daaaaaaaaaaaammit! This is the situation I longed for!
