"Ara Ara~! How cunning!" Akeno ran her red tongue over two fingers, letting out a laugh that carried an almost intoxicating allure. Her breasts jiggled as she laughed lightly, and with her lips curled into a casual smile, she asked, "In that case, why not wait until he is killed before reincarnating him into a devil?"
"This way, he won't be able to escape your clutch at all," Akeno's eyes glowed dangerously as she stared at Yusuke's running figure, and in her mind she added, 'And my clutches as well.'
"No," Rias shook her head calmly, refusing Akeno's suggestion. "That probably will not work. These two slutty crows have the same motive as us. They may hurt Yusuke, but they will not kill him."
"The best case scenario would be that after helping him, we can convince him to become one of us, protecting him from the revenge of the fallen angels," Rias spoke calmly and confidently, her arms crossed beneath her perfectly shaped large breasts, adding, "What we should do is wait for the opportunity to make a move, while at the same time stopping anyone from interfering."
"Right, Sona?" Suddenly, a black-red aura of destruction surged around Rias as a ball of destructive power formed in her palm, which she hurled toward a certain direction.
Bang!
Two figures jumped from behind the thick trees. They flapped their wings, flying into the air to face Rias and Akeno. The latter smiled as yellow lightning crackled behind her, "Ara ara~ Sona-sama, Tsubaki-sama, I never knew you had learned to be this sneaky."
"They say love makes people brainless, but it seems that in your case, it made you smarter, Rias." Sona ignored Akeno's taunting and fixed her cold eyes on her rival.
"..." Tsubaki remained silent as she hovered beside her master, staring at the two women. Compared to her master's hostility toward Rias and Akeno, she, on the other hand, was thinking about how to make these two women serve her man obediently.
As her gaze lingered on the three women, Tsubaki recalled the conversation she had with Sona earlier.
When Sona wanted to confront Tsubaki about the reason for having videos and pictures of Yusuke, it was Tsubaki who lashed out at her. She accused her of betrayal, reminding her that she had known Yusuke long before Sona and was the one who had introduced him to her. It was Sona who had come late, and now she dared to question her.
Tsubaki said she had always treated Sona as her best friend and closest relative, yet in the end, she betrayed her.
Before Sona could even find a way to reply, Tsubaki pressed further. She demanded to know why Sona had been in her room, searching through her belongings. She might be her servant, but that did not give her the right to infringe on her privacy.
In the end, Sona was still a teenager. She quickly succumbed to Tsubaki's torrent of accusations and lowered her head. She did love Yusuke and was obsessed with him, but she had not been 'exposed' to him to the extent of falling out with Tsubaki or killing her, or at least her reason still suppressed that thought.
Just then, Tsubaki held Sona's hand and told her how she had confirmed her relationship with Yusuke earlier that day. She told Sona that she did not mind if they shared him together.
This shocked Sona, making her feel a mix of anger and disappointment at herself, at Tsubaki, and at Yusuke. She had entertained the idea of making Tsubaki Yusuke's concubine, but now it seemed that Tsubaki had beaten her to it. Was she the one who was going to become the concubine?
However, Tsubaki assured her that they could both share the same status. After that, the two continued to chat, with Tsubaki telling Sona everything about Yusuke and how they had spent their day.
Sona's emotions were still complex and entangled. She had not yet fully processed everything that had happened. In fact, over the past few days, she had experienced so many intense feelings that she was still trying to make sense of them.
She had fallen in love at first sight, become obsessed with a strange man, gotten into a fight with her best friend Rias, and now discovered that her other best friend was in a relationship with the man she was obsessed with.
She felt both emotionally and physically exhausted.
However, despite this, when she listened to Tsubaki talking about Yusuke and showing her the pictures she had taken of him, her heart and mind became much calmer. The two lay on the bed, scrolling through the phone and viewing his images and videos.
It was only after a whole hour that Sona's familiar informed her that Yusuke was heading to the Church. This alerted both of them, and they hurried there. On the way, they ran into Rias and Akeno.
"Sona, this is the last chance. I don't want to ruin our friendship," Rias spoke gravely, a black-red aura circulating around her and enveloping her entire body. "Back off now. As long as you give up Yusuke, we can remain best friends."
Her hair and clothes swayed wildly in the wind as she stared at Sona and Tsubaki. Her eyes flashed with her crimson demonic power. She cherished her relationships and did not want to lose her friendship with Sona, but if she had to choose between Yusuke and Sona, she would choose the former without a second thought.
"Don't act as if you are the one who knew Yusuke first. We noticed him before you," Blue water aura surged around Sona as a blue dragon appeared before her. While Rias possessed overwhelming destructive power, Sona was not an opponent to be taken lightly.
"In that case, you leave me no choice," Rias spoke calmly, a ball of destructive energy appearing in her hand. "Let's end this once and for all!"
Bang!
Boom!
Both sides made their move at the same time. The dark red energy clashed with the blue water energy, shaking the surrounding trees.
"Fufufu~ It seems that everything has gotten serious!" Akeno transformed into her Miko form, surrounded by lightning. She pointed her finger at Tsubaki, and lightning shot from the sky, striking her.
Bang!
A Naginata silently appeared in Tsubaki's hand. She skillfully twirled her weapon and slashed the lightning with brute force.
...
On the other side, both Yusuke and Murayama were getting closer to the Church.
Completely oblivious to the women fighting for him, Yusuke's expression remained calm. He was not particularly anxious about Aika, because along the way, he had learned that a new feature had been unlocked from the tight-lipped bitch system.
This was a function to check on his yanderes. Any woman with a submission level over 80 could not only be tracked by him; he could also monitor her emotional and physical status. The status screen showed that Aika was completely fine but unconscious.
Behind him, Murayama stared at his back with fixed, glowing eyes, showing her obsessive and intense feelings for him without uttering a single word.
Back then, when she realized she had screwed up, she succumbed to despair after meeting Yusuke's cold eyes. Regret was the only thing that occupied her mind.
If only she had been obedient and followed his words. If only she had been content with what she already had. If only she had never awakened her power in the first place.
Though her eyes were fixed on Yusuke's face, a cold darkness began to gnaw at the edges of her consciousness, threatening to consume her mind and soul. But then, his final words reached her. It was as if a dam had burst within her; something primal and deep-seated shattered. The very words she had always dreamed of hearing from him echoed in her mind, again and again, flooding the void with radiant light.
"Goodbye, Murayama. You were my first woman in this life and also the one who left the deepest mark on me. I will remember you forever."
All her regret and despair vanished in a single instant. At that moment, she even felt that everything she had done this time was worth it after hearing his words.
She wasn't just another woman. She was his first woman, his first love! The woman who claimed all his firsts! The woman he would never forget, even if he were to have thousands of other women in the future!
Even when the sword penetrated her heart, she did not feel any pain. Euphoria engulfed her, washing over her mind and soul as she slowly closed her eyes and drifted into darkness.
However, just like a story from a fairytale, just when she thought her life had ended at the hands of the person she loved more than anything in this universe, she woke up. Woke up under his hands. He had healed her and brought her back from death. Her Yu-kun! Her master! He could not bear to see her dead.
He loved her just as she loved him. Otherwise, why would he have made such a confession before driving the sword into her heart? Why would he have healed her immediately afterward?!
It must have been a test from him, and she had succeeded in it!
Although the process was painful and cruel, Murayama did not feel the slightest negative emotion toward Yusuke. On the contrary, her love and affection for him had been magnified countless times. She could not wait to bring the entire world to him, to prove her love for him.
Maybe if she saved that dumb masochist Aika, he would be satisfied with her and reward her?
"Hehehe, reward… master's reward hehehe~" The thought made Murayama laugh stupidly, imagining the scene of them going on a date, playing around, going to the cinema, discovering new coffee and cake shops, and finally heading to a high-end love hotel to fuck all night!
"Why are you fucking laughing? If you have the energy to laugh, then speed the fuck up!" Yusuke's cold, angry voice snapped her back to reality.
"Tehe~! Sorry, master!" Murayama blinked, tilted her head, and replied cutely.
Bang!
When they finally reached the Church, Yusuke immediately kicked the door open and shouted, "Kalawarna, Raynare!!"
Looking around, Yusuke saw about five men dressed in black and a young man with short white hair and red eyes. He was wearing clerical clothing and had a disturbing smile on his face.
The young man stared at Yusuke and Murayama and said, "Yo! Kicking someone else's door is rude, ya know?"
"Who the fuck are you? Where are the two other bitches?!" Yusuke strode forward, followed by Murayama, who gripped her sword tightly.
"Mom, I am scared!" The man wore a frightened expression, clutching his gun and sword, before bursting into laughter. "My name is Freed Sellzen. I belong to a certain Exorcism organization. Ah, just because I introduced myself doesn't mean you have to. I don't want to remember your name, so please don't tell me. It's fine, since you are going to die soon. I will make sure of it. It might hurt at first, but later… you'll feel so good that you'll cry."
"Hahaha! The two esteemed fallen angels said I shouldn't kill the man, but it shouldn't be a problem if I cut off your limbs and kill that latex sword girl, right? Kahahahaha!" Freed continued laughing as he aimed his gun at Yusuke. Without warning or hesitation, he pressed the trigger.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
