Underworld, Gremory Main Residence
I heard that Rossweisse-San used to be the guard of Odin-Sama. Its really delightful that Rias can have such an excellent Peerage mber, Venelana remarked.
The pleasure is all mine. Rias is a very generous employer, Rossweisse replied.
Hehehe Then Ill rely on Rossweisse-San to take care of our Rias in the future, as well as Kuroka-San. Please help Rias like Koneko-Chan does, Venelana requested.
No problem, ow.
In the luxurious hall, Venelana, Rossweisse, and the other won enjoyed their tea and chatted. Since Rias had just ford contracts with two new Peerage mbers, she brought them ho to introduce them to her parents. It was a customary practice in the Gremory family.
Ile and Nel were playfully wrestling on Tenrakus lap, while Tenraku leisurely sipped his tea. As the future son-in-law of the Gremory family, Tenraku was considered a half-owner of the place.
When Rias returned, Tenraku naturally followed. However, this ti they were only back temporarily, spending one night before returning to the Human World. So, Yubelluna and Ravel stayed behind at the residence, while Ile and Nel, the two little lolis, insisted on coming down to play.
Tenraku-Kun, I heard Sirzechs talking about your recent achievents. You actually defeated Loki. Tenraku-Kun, youre getting more and more impressive, Venelanas voice suddenly sounded in Tenrakus ears and he couldnt help but be taken aback, but Venelana was still conversing happily with Rossweisse as if nothing was out of the ordinary.
Was that a transmission of Magic Power? Although Tenraku didnt know what his future mother-in-law wanted to do, he replied in his mind:
Aunt, you flatter . It was just luck.
Hehehe Tenraku-Kun, your modesty is also quite adorable. But what I really want to say is that there seem to be more and more won around you, even Rias Queen, Bishop, and two Knights have been eaten by Tenraku-Kun, right?
Cough, cough, cough
No wonder she used Magic Power transmission. She wanted to talk about this with him. Caught off guard, Tenraku choked on his tea, causing a fit of coughing.
Tenraku-Sama, are you okay? Ile and Nel hurriedly patted his chest and wiped the corners of his mouth. Even Rias and the other won looked at him with concerned eyes.
Im fine, Im fine. Carry on, Tenraku gestured to the won that he was okay. However, he was sweating profusely in his heart. Seeing Venelana smiling at him, he could only force a reply: Aunt, even if I have more won, I will never let Rias down.
At tis like this, finding any excuse would be foolish behavior. So, Tenraku directly made his promise.
Hehehe As expected of Tenraku-Kun. No wonder you can deceive so many girls. Youre quite cunning, Venelana chuckled.
I believe in Tenraku-Kun, but
While its normal for outstanding boys to be popular with won, if Tenraku-Kun were to neglect our Rias because of that, Okaa-Sama wont let you off easily, Venelana said in a relaxed tone. Although Venelana seed to be joking, Tenraku didnt feel a hint of jest in her tone. He quickly reassured her repeatedly that he would never neglect Rias.
Although Tenraku didnt think he would let Rias down, it didnt diminish the wariness of his future mother-in-law. Speaking of which, the won in the Gremory family were not easy to handle.
Whether it was the Flaxen-haired Mada of Extinction, the
Silver-haired Queen of Annihilation, or the Crimson-haired Ruin Princess, they were all formidable. Just listening to their titles was enough to strike fear into the hearts of many, just like that Queen Prohibited from Contact. Their nicknas alone were sufficient to intimidate a group of people.
Madam, Sirzechs-Sama and the others have returned, A servant reported, and not long after, Sirzechs, Grayfia, and a black-haired young man, Sairaorg, walked in.
Everyone greeted and exchanged pleasantries, and then Tenraku and Sairaorg bumped their fists together.
Sairaorg, why did you co here?
The fruits from the Bael territory are ripe, so I brought so over for Uncle and Aunt. Since youre here, you can also take so back later, Sairaorg explained.
Hey, hey, Sairaorg, I didnt expect you to understand these social courtesies. I thought you were just a musclehead, Tenraku teased.
Kamiya Tenraku, dont underestimate . Im the type thats rough on the surface but delicate on the inside! Sairaorg declared.
Wow, that really surprises , hahaha Teraku chuckled as he spoke. You and I have beco quite good friends. Joking around is no problem at all.
Seemingly thinking of sothing, Sairaorg said, Kamiya Tenraku, Ive already asked Sirzechs-Sama to arrange a match between us. Ive been looking forward to fighting against you for a long ti.
Ive been looking forward to it too, but lets make it clear: I wont go easy on you. Dont feel embarrassed when I bring you down, Tenraku replied.
Hahaha If you went easy on , it would actually trouble . Lets fight with all our might and see whos stronger! Sairaorg exclaid.
Agreed!
Tenraku was indeed excited about having a match against Sairaorg. As forr Underworld two cripples, it could be considered their destined encounter.
Afterward, they all enjoyed a lavish dinner together. Sairaorg took his leave after dinner, as he had to return to the Bael territory with the ripe fruits. Sirzechs, too, had other matters to attend to. Only Tenraku and the won of the Gremory family remained, planning to return to the Human World the next day.
In the luxurious and spacious bathhouse, Tenraku relaxed by himself in the hot spring. While he usually bathed together with Rias and the others at ho and even had occasional water battles with the girls, he felt it would be better to behave himself in the Gremory familys residence.
After soaking for a while and letting out a yawn, Tenraku thought it was ti to go to sleep. However, with a click, the entire bathroom plunged into darkness.
His gaze focused, but in the next mont, a smile appeared on Tenrakus lips. Grayfia-San, couldnt you choose a different way to make an entrance? And why did you choose this place?
I would be discovered in other places, A cold voice seem to chro from everywhere, followed by a beautiful figure erging from the darkness.
Standing above the water, looking down at Tenraku, it was Grayfia herself!
Discovered by whom? What arent you telling , Grayfia-San? Tenraku narrowed his eyes, trying to discern sothing from her expression.
I cannot tell you yet. You are still too weak, Grayfia replied with an expressionless look in her eyes.
Tenraku couldnt help but sigh inwardly. Unless Grayfia herself volunteered the information, it was indeed difficult to glean anything from the icy maids face.
Grayfia-San, even you wouldnt be able to guarantee victory over , do you still see as weak? Is that how you perceive ? Tenraku rubbed his forehead and could only helplessly say.
Hmph, you can currently surpass in strength, but its still not enough. Far from it. You must beco stronger, even stronger! Grayfia declared.
Even if you say that, Grayfia-San, it doesnt an much to . If you wont tell anything and just want to beco stronger then what am I to do with that? Is there so formidable enemy lurking around? Tenraku questioned.
And besides, just because soone is an enemy of Grayfia-San doesnt necessarily make them my enemy, right? Why should I go all out for sothing so vague? Although Tenraku was curious about Grayfias situation, her continuous evasiveness left him dissatisfied.
You wont tell , huh? Well, Im not interested! Tenraku spoke in a serious tone.
Seeing Tenrakus reaction, Grayfias cold face twisted into a sinister smile as she spoke. Kamiya Tenraku, he is not only my enemy but undoubtedly yours as well. That much, I can guarantee.
Strive to beco stronger, and when you reach a realm beyond the Demon King, I will tell you everything.
Staring at the beautiful yet icy woman before him, Tenraku couldnt help but feel a sense of gravity. It seed that she had no reason to deceive him, and simply making him stronger wouldnt benefit her in any way. Moreover, given Grayfias status and position, she had no need to resort to such tactics.
In other words, there really might be an unknown and powerful enemy lurking in the shadows!
Lost in thought for a mont, Tenraku eventually nodded. I will work hard to beco stronger, but Grayfia-San, please keep your promise and tell everything when the ti cos.
I will keep my promise. However, we dont have much ti left. Take care of yourself, Kamiya Tenraku, Grayfia replied with a deep gaze, then turned and disappeared into the darkness.
The radiance returned to the bathhouse, but apart from Tenrakus pensive and serious expression, everything seed as if nothing had happened at all
