Days after the school festival.
"ORAAA!" I shouted.
"Too weak," Koneko replied.
We were locked in a fierce… video game battle, mashing controllers in a new fighting game. Characters in gi traded punches and kicks on the TV.
I challenged Koneko after hearing she's a gaming pro. "Nice, Koneko! But try my new combo!" I unleashed my practiced move.
Beep-beep-beep-BAM! She dodged, landing a brutal counter. "Wha?!"
"Challenging me at fighting games? A thousand years too early," Koneko said, unleashing a combo as my character floated. My HP vanished.
"Tch, timeout!" I pleaded.
"No mercy."
Player 2 WIN!! Koneko's victory flashed.
Unbelievable. I grinded this game, and she's a first-timer?! "I've mastered every fighting game," she said.
She looked towering. I couldn't win today. "I'll get revenge later!" I vowed.
"I won, so you owe me a favor," Koneko said.
Right, we agreed the loser grants one wish. I planned to ask for a massage if I won. Oh well. "Anything I can do, name it."
"Anything?" she asked.
"Within my power," I clarified.
Her wish? "Lap pillow and head pats," she said, blushing, fidgeting adorably.
Easy! But before I could agree, Rias called, "Issei, Koneko, lunch time. Stop gaming."
It was just past noon—perfect. "Got it. I'll do it later, Koneko."
"Okay."
We headed to the table, set with delicious-smelling napolitan made by Rias and Asia. Our household's cooking usually falls to Mom, Miu, Rias, Asia, or Akeno. Alice is training under Mom, not great yet but trying. Koneko, Reyna, and Rossweisse can cook but rarely do. Xenovia and Irina? Their food's lethal—nearly saw the afterlife once. Best they stay out of the kitchen.
"Where's Miu?" I asked.
"Up late, napping," Alice said.
"Again? I'll wake her. Start without me." I headed to Miu's room. She's got a night owl habit, fine for a day off.
Knock knock. "Miu, lunch!"
No reply. Sleeping hard.
Wait… I forgot something… something bad…
I opened the door.
"Y-Yahn!" Miu gasped.
"Fufu, cute reaction, Miu-chan," a red-haired woman purred.
On the bed, Miu's pajamas were half-off, chest exposed, pants at her knees. The woman—Ignis—teased her chest. "So hard here. Feeling it?"
"N-No… hah!" Miu moaned.
"I bet Issei's sucked and groped these plenty," Ignis said, her hand slipping into Miu's underwear. "He's touched here too, right?"
"T-That's… only for big bro…" Miu resisted weakly.
Ignis smirked.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY MIU, YOU DUMB GODDESS?!" I roared.
Ignis sat seiza-style as I scolded her post-lunch. "She was sleeping so cutely, I couldn't resist," she said, unapologetic.
"That's no excuse! You made her cry!" I snapped.
"My technique's just that good," Ignis grinned, posing.
"Stop that! Apologize to Miu!"
"Sorry~☆" Ignis winked, sticking out her tongue. Miu, red-faced, was speechless.
This goddess…
Why's Ignis here? Her "experiment" worked. Our strengthened bond via the path let her manifest physically. Unlike Ddraig, whose soul is bound to the gear, Ignis turned herself into a sword, so she could always reclaim a body. Problem? Her full power would incinerate everything.
So, I synced our energies, combining ambient chi with her power to create a pseudo-body. It's powerless and stable unless hit hard, then she returns to the sword.
I doubted it'd work, but it did. "Goddess power," she claimed. Now, she's causing chaos.
"I'm hyped to be out! Cut me some slack~♪" Ignis said.
"I get it, but there's limits," I said.
"Haa, finally free from her…" Ddraig sighed, relieved.
"What'd she do to you?" I asked.
"Don't ask!" he snapped.
What happened?! "Who's next to play with?" Ignis mused.
"Hey!"
Evening, in the bath. Ignis lounged, legs stretched. All the house's women were here—Church Trio scrubbing backs, Rias and Akeno relaxing.
"Why a group bath?" Miu asked.
Ignis, towel on head, said, "Naked bonding's fun. Never had it."
"God thing, huh?" I said.
"Partly. I was a recluse in the divine realm, no friends. Always alone," she said.
Right, she mentioned that when we met. "I envied this lively scene through you, Issei. Never had it myself."
"Now you can, right?" I said.
"Yep. Thanks, Issei. This means a lot," she smiled.
Cute moment. Miu splashed. "Do you… like big bro?"
"I enjoy his company. Could be fun. Jealous, sister-lover Miu-chan?" Ignis teased.
"Nope. He'll make us all happy. Right, big bro?" Miu hugged my arm, her chest pressing.
Bigger than before! Ignis hugged my other arm—smooth, soft goddess skin! "Excited by my divine chest?" she teased.
"Supreme!" I blurted.
So erotic!
"Issei…" Alice sighed.
The women fell victim to Ignis's antics later. I couldn't stop her.
