Chapter 264: Safety Shorts = Humanity's Most Failed Invention!
🕑 Added 2025-06-27 03:55:41 +0000 UTCHolding Ais’s rapier between two fingers, Blake’s lips curled slightly as he looked at Ais’s surprised eyes. He had used this feint attack with sword qi when fighting Vali Lucifer, the White Dragon Emperor, in the High School DxD world. Even without the ability to sense aura, one wouldn’t fall for it.
He had to admit, Ais’s talent was indeed formidable. He had only taught her the basics, yet she had learned Reinforcement Magic in half a month. Although she was just a beginner, it was still impressive. As for Myriad Sword Convergence, she could fluidly use hundreds of sword qi. While their individual power wasn’t strong, combining them could compensate for that weakness. Moreover, her method of execution was practically identical to his own.
“Whoosh!”
As various thoughts flashed through Blake’s mind, Ais attacked again. Her slender, jade-like leg swept towards Blake with a fierce whistling sound, vaguely revealing her absolute domain, and the abominable safety shorts.
“Boom!”
The next instant, Blake’s eyes moved slightly. He parried Ais’s sword, then formed a single hand into a palm, and with a faint phoenix cry, lightly patted Ais’s calf. With a muffled thud, Ais instantly lost her balance and flew backward, even the wind vortex from her Wind Spirit Dash was dispersed, causing her to fall from the high wall.
Seeing this, Blake shook his head. His figure vanished from the spot, reappearing in mid-air where Ais was, embracing her. Then, he elegantly floated back to his original position.
However, when their postures clearly entered Lili’s eyes, she was stunned, her face slightly flushed, revealing a strange look.
This was all because Blake’s embrace of Ais was too ambiguous, almost pressing them together. Furthermore, Blake’s hand was grasping Ais’s perfectly cupped right breast, his fingers deeply sunken into it, highlighting its astonishing softness.
“Mm...?!”
Feeling the tingling sensation in front of her chest, Ais was also startled. She then looked down, and a faint blush appeared on her delicate face. Her golden eyes rippled, and she let out a soft moan.
“Cough cough. Sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”
The next instant, Blake reluctantly moved his wolf-like paw from his adorable disciple’s well-developed chest, coughing lightly as he explained. However, he couldn’t help but give off a guilty vibe.
“Blake, it’s alright. You were saving me.”
Hearing this, Ais merely said softly, showing no suspicion, her eyes incredibly clear.
Ais, his adorable disciple’s clear eyes, made Blake feel a sense of guilt. In reality, during the earlier fight, he noticed Ais’s safety shorts and felt a slight disappointment. After all, the invention of safety shorts was humanity’s greatest failure! So, when he was saving her, for some unknown reason, he put his wolf-like hand there... to make up for his earlier disappointment...?
“.....”
Lili, standing by, eyed Blake’s rare expression suspiciously, as if she realized something. She pouted unhappily, feeling very envious.
“Cough, Ais, why didn’t you use your Divine Armament? With the ability of ‘Sin and Punishment’, you had many other options earlier.”
Noticing Lili’s suspicious gaze, Blake’s lips twitched slightly. He then changed the subject and asked,
“What a moment of pure temptation, truly a sin. I must not do this in front of other girls again...”
Listening to Blake’s inner thoughts, Ling’er couldn’t help but feel helpless. It seemed her master had no intention of repenting... Everything else was fine, but his desires regarding girls were a bit too strong...
Of course, Blake, as her master, wouldn’t trample on girls’ feelings. Ling’er naturally knew this, so she was just complaining.
“......”
After Blake’s words fell, Ais didn’t answer. She just lowered her head and looked at the two rings on her slender, jade-like fingers.
“Ais, your approach is correct. Such an ability, without 100% certainty, is best not used. After all, the absorption ability has a limit. And if the Ring of Sin doesn’t accurately absorb an attack, it will put you, the master, in fatal danger.”
Seeing Ais’s silence, Blake pondered for a moment, then nodded as if guessing, gently stroking Ais’s hair.
“Blake, I understand...”
Hearing this, Ais couldn’t help but raise her head, her golden eyes as soft as water, and she couldn’t help but clench her hands. Actually, she wasn’t as cautious as Blake had said. It was just that these were the first gifts Blake had given her, and after hearing about the meaning of the rings from Riveria, she didn’t want to use them. She just wanted to wear them.
This way, it gave her an incredibly secure feeling.
“Today’s training ends here. Ais, practice by yourself.”
Ais’s unusual behavior made Blake curious for a moment, but he didn’t think much of it. He just turned to Lili and instructed her on what to do next.
“I understand, Lord Blake!”
Hearing this, Lili instantly stood up happily.
Blake nodded in satisfaction. As long as there was diligence and enthusiasm, there would be no problem. As for Lili, as the second member of the Hestia Familia, Blake intended to cultivate her into a pillar of strength.
Thus, a day passed. As dusk fell, both Lili and Ais grew under Blake’s alternating guidance.
“Wallenstein, you spent another day with my Blake, how enviable... no... how shameless...”
Just as Blake finished today’s special training, Hestia’s beautiful figure suddenly appeared. Her eyes locked onto Ais as she hummed, filled with strong jealousy.
However, before she could finish her words, the helpless Blake covered her mouth. Ais, though somewhat naive, was also very serious. He couldn’t let her overthink things.
“Blake, do you want to come with me to the banquet celebrating the end of the expedition? Loki and Finn said they want to thank you.”
Ais looked at the excited Hestia, blinked in confusion, then spoke to Blake.
“A banquet, huh. Since you’re inviting me so graciously, Ais, then let’s go.”
Hearing this, Blake touched his face, pondered for a moment, then agreed. Having just arrived in this world, he hadn’t even greeted girls like Syr and Ryu. Going wouldn’t hurt. Besides, he had been training all day, so taking Lili and Hestia out for some good food would be nice too.
Most importantly, by taking a slight detour, the fish should be biting soon.
