LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 35 – The time has come
The meeting ended at dawn, I came back from my mansion with my old man. This is the first time I attended a meeting between the leader, but to think it was like a meeting between a friend.
My old man just laughed while playing with me all the time. That made me go along with him and we just laughed at each other while in the meeting. Yasaka and Amaterasu were looking at us with tired eyes and they just talked with each other about the compensation that they asked from the church side for the Excalibur.
Amaterasu, yes I did call her that now because she didn’t mind it. Or rather, she was not offended when I call her that so I stick with it for now until she asked me to change how I call her.
Well long story short, Kunou fell asleep in the middle of the meeting and sleep on Yasaka’s lap. The real meeting has ended after I told them that I will handle the Excalibur Shard, so the rest of it was just for formality and deepening the bond between the leader. Or so it was supposed to deepen the bond between the leaders.
Well, back to me. I arrived at Kuoh Town again by teleporting myself into my bedroom. The time I had arrived at Kuoh, was the time when the school had started. I showered in my mansion
The girls were nowhere to be seen as they are going to school at this time. I changed into my uniform and picked my bag before walking to the school.
When I arrived at the school, the situation was a bit weird. I could feel something amiss and spread my Senjutsu to feel what’s going on. I could feel 2 foreign energy within the old school building, the base of Rias and her peerage.
Shirone was also in that building while I felt Kuroka and Tsura were on the roof. Maybe they are seeing the situation first or waiting for my arrival, but they were just standing on the roof near the old school building.
I shroud myself in Fear and run towards Kuroka and Tsura. I jumped around the wall and arrived at the roof within ten seconds. I erased my Fear and approached them from behind.
“Tsura, Kuroka, what happened?” I asked them as I stood behind them, looking down at the old school building.
“Riku-sama!” Exclaimed Tsura, surprised by my sudden call.
“Nya! There is a devil that entered the territory nya! We are watching them right now because we don’t know what to do except for watching them.” Explained Kuroka.
I saw that Kuroka has worry written over her face while looking back at the old school building. She must be worried about Shirone. I put my hand on top of her head and said.
“Leave it to me. For now, go back to the mansion with Tsura. I have obtained permission from the leader of our faction to move as I please if I deemed it as necessary.”
“But, Riku-sama! Isn’t it dangerous? Going there alone without us? Especially when one of the devils has that much energy.”
That’s true. There is one person in that building that has energy a few times bigger than the other combined. I do need to worry about it. I didn’t know how strong am I compared to the ultimate devil or Satan just from my old man story alone. But, I was confident to run from them without any injuries.
That’s why I assured Tsura. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. I am worried about the two of you instead. I am confident that I can run, but how about the two of you? That’s why, wait for me in the class or the apartment, okay?”
Both of them nods their head and walked away from me.
My real reason was to keep them away from Riser though. I really can’t stop myself in case of Riser do anything to them.
They stopped right before going down the stairs and said.
“Good luck Riku-sama!”
“Good luck Riku-sama nya!”
I smiled at them and said. “Ou!”
I jumped down the building, still in my human form and used Meikyo Shisui to erase my presence as I walked inside the old school building. The inside of the old school building was quiet, but when I almost reached the ORC’s room, I heard a shout from Issei.
“How dare you act like that!!”
The next moment after the shout was the door in front of me opened forcefully from behind and Issei was blown away.
I sidestepped and dodge the flying Issei and entered the room with a smile on my face as I closed my right eye.
There, I saw a blond-haired man wearing an unbuttoned white shirt with red suit on top of it sitting on the couch with Rias beside him while Rias’s peerage members were standing in front of Riser with spiteful expressions.
On the side, stood a maid with braided white hair looking at Riser with a tired expression.
Because the couch across Rias was not occupied, I let myself sit there and watch Riser right in front of him.
“You should have taught him clearly, Rias. Did you not tell your peerage about Riser, your fiancé?” He said as he crossed his legs and put his arm on Rias’s shoulder.
However, Rias slapped his arm and throw an angry yell towards him. “I never agreed to it! Not only that, the agreement was when I graduated from this school, why are you here right now?!”
I used this chance to reveal myself and said. “And, why did an uninvited devil enter this territory without telling me first?”
Everyone in the room has a shocked expression, especially the maid- Grayfia, that stood on the side of the room. I didn’t wait for long after I said that, I looked at Grayfia with my one eye open. With a confident smile on my face, I asked her.
“Can you explain this to me, Lucifer’s queen?”
Grayfia was opening her mouth, about to answer me when a voice interrupted her.
“Who are you? How dare you interrupt Riser time with his fiancée?” As he said that, he threw a fireball towards me.
The fireball was hot, I could feel the heat from where I sat. Unfortunately, it was too slow.
I called my Nenekirimaru and slashed the fireball, making it disappear into thin air, and stabbed Riser’s leg with my sword.
I pulled my sword as soon as I stabbed him, and demonic energy was gushing out from his wound, making him scream in pain. But his scream didn’t last long as his regeneration as phoenix finally kicked in when the demonic energy stopped gushing out from his wound and closed it.
He was glaring at me and was about to send another attack. I also smiled as I stood up and brandished my sword, almost cutting him in half. It was almost because suddenly an ice wall was formed between us.
I looked at Grayfia and saw her extending her left hand and creating the ice wall to separate us from each other, saving Riser in the process.
Rias and her peerage were only looking at me in confusion mixed with fear. Shirone however, was looking at me with a relieved face and sighed.
I make my sword disappear and sat on the couch again with my arm crossed as I looked at Grayfia.
“You saved him.”
“Yes I did.” Answered Grayfia.
