A/N: Yo, Shonpufi Here!
Sorry that the chapter came in late today; it's just that I got so busy today that I didn't have a chance to post the chapter.
-Otto POV-
After leaving Ms. Scot behind, the four of us caught up to the group at the market.
Ms. Fisher was confused as to how we came back with some random girl after disappearing for just a few minutes, but I explained her circumstances.
And to say she was "pissed" was quite the understatement.
She wanted to go to those adults and give them a piece of her mind, but I told her that Ms. Scot was already taking care of matters with them.
She only nodded and welcomed Lavinia with open arms, as she would probably become a future student of hers if she truly came back to Germany with us, which I don't doubt she will.
I'm sure Ms. Scot is going to use some hypnotism magic or something on them.
There was also the issue with Himeko...
She was pissed that I didn't tell her about the whole magic thing and that I turned Welt into one of my Herrscher's.
She then pouted and ignored me for most of the time we were in the market. But I found a gold rose hair ornament that looks like the one Himeko from Honkai: Star Rail wears, and bought it.
I gave it to her; I even put it on her head without asking her and catching her off guard, making Himeko go all red in embarrassment.
Heh, kids are so easy~
Wait, that didn't sound right...
Well, anyways.
She definitely didn't see the gift coming, and she definitely forgot about what she was mad about in the beginning.
But she was still jealous of Lavinia, who was latching onto my arm like her life depended on it.
I held her hand out of nowhere, as the manga romance manga I read in my last life said I should.
She cutely 'eeped' in surprise, but she didn't complain or say that she didn't like it.
So from the rest of the day, I held the hand of a cute redhead and had my arm hugged by a pretty blonde.
Damn, that still doesn't sound right...
Despite basically being married to science, Welt showed some jealousy but soon nodded with a thumbs up as he showed his support as my best friend.
Haiz~
I've already captured the hearts of two future powerful beauties, sometimes I wonder if I have some devil blood in me from how sinful of a man I am.
Now that I'm talking about powerful, I should probably try to save Gasper and Valerie since I'm already so close to Romania, I only need to go through Slovenia and Hungary.
Gasper's sacred gear literally stops time, making him a Walmart Dio.
And Valerie has the Longinus [Sephiroth Graal].
The thing shoves the info on how life and souls are made into one's head. It also tells you about the concept of life, death, and many other things that one should DEFINITELY not know.
The thing can literally revive people, fuck with souls, and much, much more.
The only drawback is that the user slowly goes insane from the information that the Sacred Gear gives. After all, the concepts of death and life aren't something that a mortal should be able to wield so easily.
Perhaps the drawback would disappear if I turned her into my Herrscher of [Rebirth].
And I'm not sure if I can turn Gasper into a Herrscher, as I haven't seen any Herrscher of time in the games. Maybe he will have the potential to use a different core, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
Perhaps he could use the core of corruption since he is incredibly capable with computers, especially hacking. Well, that's if my DxD knowledge about him is correct.
The only worry that I have left is Ms. Scot.
I'm not scared of her as I've come to trust her even if she is a fallen angel.
She's literally the woman who raised me in this life.
But despite that, I'll be careful while at the same time giving her the benefit of the doubt.
And if things go south, I'll have to...
I'd rather not say it, but Welt and I will manage to escape alive somehow with the girls if things truly turn out that way.
She should definitely be strong, so it might be hard to pull that off.
The only thing I should be greatly inferior in is basically everything besides my sacred gear and "special" abilities I possess.
She's a fallen angel after all, I'm sure she's seen war and death.
But in the end, I'm ready for whatever comes my way.
I always have been.
Can't let the cool image of evil genius Otto die with me, right?
