"What the hell did you do?"
"Hmmm?"
"Don't give me that 'I have no idea what you're talking about' face, heavens damn it! What did you do?!"
"Eh… still don't know what you're talking about"
Currently I was standing in the middle of the ORC with the Student Council surrounding me. Currently they've dragged me to the ORC house after school despite my outrageous protests and my screams of "Help me! S.O.S.!" or the screams of "Kidnapper!" or the screams of "Rape! Rape! Rape!" The only thing that Sona senpai did to my cries of distress was to neck-chop me but failing to make me unconscious but succeeded in making me shut the fuck up. Too late. You have no idea how fast rumors spread and how unbelievably unrealistic they morph into.
Then the Student Council, along with the ORC forced me to tell them what in the world happened yesterday. Needless to say, the ORC members weren't having their best day. Kiba was still massaging his wounds which thankfully didn't leave any scars or permanent damage. Koneko was scared out of her wits as only a brim of her eyes peaked at me over the desk that Rias sat in. Akeno's smile was painfully strained. And Rias? Oh… she was pissed to the bone.
"Itsuka!" Yelled Rias as her wings came into view as she sent her best death glare at my unmoving face. "WHO WERE THOSE PEOPLE?!"
"… My executives" I answered as I calmly sipped my tea.
"THEN WHY WOULD THEY ATTACK US?!"
"Because I gave them the order not to let anyone trespass the area that I designated?"
"Trespass?! TRESPASS?! What gives you the right to—"
"Because I'm human with power Rias" I said coldly. I had nothing against the red haired devil. I really do not. But what gets on my nerves are the devils that claim to own human land when they have their own realms… I know that they live on by the sins of humans and I know angels live on by the devotion of humans. But what I can't understand is that they slice up our lands as if they were theirs and take it as if they were splitting a cake and taking it for themselves, without our consent.
Frankly speaking that pissed me off. And don't get started on how they manipulate humans to live an easy life in the human realm. Sometimes, they don't but most of the time, they use their magic to enslave humans using them for labor, or for sexual needs.
It really pisses me off however, currently, Rias Gremory is just giving me annoyance, not anger so I could deal with that emotion.
"If I say that there is anybody trespassing in this area it would be you," I said, staring at her rigid face. "And you," I said, flickering my eyes towards Sona-senpai who very slightly flinched under my blank gaze. "You two pure blooded Devils have entered in our realm and you are secretly ruling over it, unknown to everybody except for the church and other secret organizations who know what your powers are capable of. You came to a human's realm."
I sipped my tea again making a brief pause. Then I continued to speak while rubbing the bridge of my nose. "Logically, what you are doing is for your own survival. I do not lack information of what is happening between the three factions you know? I will begrudgingly admit that the peerage system is needed for you devils to get back on your feet, and that you need to influence more humans if possible to retain your power. Same goes to the angels and the fallen, they need more influence in this mortal world to stabilize their power. Furthermore, judging by your two personalities, I am sure you didn't force anybody in this room to become part of your peerage. However…" I sighed as I placed the cup on the table. That part was absolutely true. Even though I didn't find it... pleasing that these species roam our realm that was only meant for us and the youkai, I have to let them interfere with humanity, for it is already impossible to stop the supernatural beings from coming here and the fact that they need us to preserve themselves. Even when I don't find it acceptable, I have to let them do what they have to do, unless they cross over the line. Or... nevermind.
"Please refrain a situation where someone's demonic powers get loose and make the host go mad, their demonic powers overwhelming their rationality as they succumb to their demonic instincts killing, ravaging and pillaging humans."
"I would never let such a thing happen." Glowered Rias as her bloodlust sweeped the area.
"Nor would I." Exclaimed Sona as her bloodlust also swept the room. And I was between the two tidal waves of killing intent as they tried to drown me.
Tough chance. I've seen and felt worse.
"We're getting off track here." Muttered Rias as she placed her hands in her face, rubbing them. "Itsuka… You are… logically right so to speak and your actions of not letting anybody entering the danger zone was the right thing to do… but… Did that green haired man really have to stab in a scythe throughout my body?"
I winced at that. Executive Q can be a bit… competitive when it came to battling high leveled people. Rias could probably beat Executive Q given the right circumstances, but then again, Q always said, "Jokers are capable of bringing out unexpected outcomes, my Queen."
"You do know that all three of them thoroughly apologized to you guys, remember?" I said, rubbing my forehead.
"Even when they did and I'm convinced to forgive them, I am still not pleased with the scythe wielding man Itsuka."
I sweatdropped. It was true that they apologized while Midori (Executive D) placed talismans on their bodies and I used acupuncture to heal them. Executive X and Executive D might have apologized sincerely and without hesitation. But…
"Q! Say you're sorry! We don't need to be on bad terms with the hell's strongest devil's little sister!"
"Alright my Queen… Alright…"
"…"
"Rias Gremory. I Executive Committee Q, am sorry…" He then smirked arrogantly. "… for being stronger than you."
POW
" Ahahaha… I'm so sorry Rias, I think my executive has a death wish here… hahaha… ha… shit"
"What do you want?" I asked tiredly. "What do you want for compensation?"
Rias and Sona looked at each other for less than a second before turning both of their heads towards me.
"You're powers," Rias muttered. "More specifically, how you managed to send a meteorite to that church"
"How do you know it is me?"
"Your executive didn't completely knock down my queen. Before she truly fell into oblivion, she managed to hear bits of pieces that she was able to sew together to know it was you who was responsible for the meteor strike"
I glanced at Rias' queen who was still putting up a strained smile. I sighed.
"I'm sorry…" I said quietly. "Not now Rias. I don't plan on letting anybody know what my Sacred Gear is capable of." I silently saw Rias grumbling as she handed a patch of bills to Sona who smiled smudgly. I raised a single eyebrow.
"You betted against me whether I had a Sacred Gear or not?"
"I thought you were a magician!"
Oh, if that's the case she could truly have mistaken me for a magician.
"But didn't you know that I had low mana resources?"
"Yes! But I thought you were secretly hiding your real mana and holding them back! Nobody could have such low mana! Nobody!"
"Yare, yare, Senpai," I said as I sweatdropped as Rias started to cry. "I'm sorry I'm not a magician but a Sacred Gear user. And I'm sure your money would be put into good use by Sona-senpai in the future…"
Sona's smug face contrasted what I just told Rias. I facepalmed.
"Anyways… I really can't tell you what I can do, however…" I put my fingers on the table. "… I can give you information about my executives. Only, and only about my executives. Five of them in total and that's the maximum number Rias, I'm not planning on telling more and giving out more information"
Rias, choked on her spit. "Five…? FIVE?! YOU HAVE MORE THAN THOSE THREE?!"
"Yup."
Rias facepalmed hard as she growled in frustration. "F-fine…" She groaned as she looked tired. "First of all, I want to know about that scythe wielding man and the teenager named Executive X. Those two had something... some... power that no human should have."
I told them and they accepted the information in shock.
"N-no wonder they didn't feel perfectly human." Muttered Rias in shock. "A descendant of the Joker and a man who bears the Hydra in his stomach… Just where did you find these people? No... How did you recruit them in the first place? You're a year younger than me!"
"That information was not in our agreement, Rias." I said, making Rias to give me a dirty look.
"Fine… But what of the three left? I don't know who to pick since I don't know if they even exist."
I chuckled softly as I stood up. "You can keep those three questions to yourself and use them when you grow curious about a certain executive of mine," I replied. "I'm plotting Rias. I'm plotting a lot for the future, for my goal, and when that happens… You'll get to see all of my executives, with no doubt of course. So… if you intend to use the remaining three questions…" I walked up to the window.
"Don't die until then."
And then I jumped out of the window, breaking the glass and wood and earning a frustrated scream and curses about expenses from a certain red haired devil, ignoring the door. Why? Because it's cooler than exiting through the door.
"Ano…"
"Yes, Asia?"
"What are you doing?"
"Shhh… Asia. I'm concentrating…"
"O-okay…"
As soon as I got home I went straight up to my room where Asia was occupying then told her to take a seat on the edge of the bed. Then I looming over her placed both of my hands on each side of her head and concentrated.
I have done this a lot of times and I know it would work. But seriously, I would later have to ask Doctor M to later make a microchip that would be installed into our necks and enable a person to speak any language. That would be far more convenient than what I'm doing over here
I finished what I was doing and gave a test run by talking with Asia in Japanese. She answered back. Then I sighed with relief as lending my wisdom worked once more.
"Asia, using my Sacred Gear I have implanted part of my wisdom to read, write, and speak any type of language in this universe to you. Currently you have just spoke Japanese as if it was your mother-tongue which meant that the implant was a success"
"?! I spoke Japanese Itsuka-san?!"
"Check again if you like, sister."
She did and did it again. And again. And again. And again.
"I… I can speak Japanese… Thank you Itsuka-san! Thank you so much for this miracle!"
"Hahaha… It's okay Asia-chan, it was nothing. But I did this not only for you to communicate with my mom and dad but for you to enroll in my school."
"Eh? School Itsuka-san?"
I gave a quick nod before elaborating. "That's right, Asia. I promised to you that I'll take care of you but I couldn't do that when you're all alone at home doing nothing at all. It would be horrifyingly boring."
"Ahhh… It's okay Itsuka-san… I don't mind being bored…"
Then she muttered something with a suddenly very bright pink face which I have a good idea what it is but I decided to let that slip.
"It's not being bored or not Asia, that's not my point. My point is that I will not be able to protect you if you stay at home and I stay at my academy. So… you're going to my school and I will make sure you will be in the same class as me. I promised to keep you away from harm's way and I will try my best to hold that promise… that's the point of your enrollment to school Asia."
"Itsuka-san…" Were those tears? Did she actually tear up from that? That was just a simple act of passing information and explaining the reason why. Then again, I was dealing with Asia Argento, the most innocent nun you could find in this universe. "Wahhh! You're doing so much for meee! I'm… I'm not worthy!"
I should've seen the hug coming… Not that I'm complaining of course.
"Thank you Itsuka-san! Thank you so much! Thank you for taking so much care for me! I-I-I… I don't know how to repay you! I-I… Thank you!"
"Hey, hey, little sister. I did promised you to take care of you, did I? Now, now… you can stop crying"
"Y-yes Itsuka-san… *sniffle* Wahhhh!"
For God's sa—... oh yeah… he died right?... yeah he did…
