Title: Hiding Something...
….
"I would go crazy if I read the thing." Says Rias as she shrugs at this. "I mean didn't one of the gods of the Indian Pantheon go crazy by reading it."
Haruto smiles at that. "Yep… also you are quite knowledgeable about stuff like this."
"Yeah." Says Rias calmly, but there is a hint of pride in her voice. "Grayfia taught me a lot of stuff on what things I shouldn't get involved with."
"Hmmm… but that Indian God read the real thing not a copy of it." Says Haruto with a strange smile on his face which slightly confuses Rias. As no one knew that it was the real one, though people did assume so. Though Haruto said it as a fact as if he is 100% sure that the Indian God read the real one.
"Really?... Wow, you are knowledgeable in stuff like this." Says Rias, truly surprised once more by Haruto's knowledge in certain obscure subjects.
Haruto shrugs as he takes another cup of tea from Akeno, the other ORC club members still look at him with curiosity.
Asia looks at Haruto with curiosity in her eyes and asks. "Haruto -san… I wonder, how did you start creating the Abyss Auction, there was never a definitive time that it can be said that the Auction was active. As far as I can remember there was always that service available to the church, how young were you when you created it."
Haruto snickers at that slightly. As if he heard the funniest joke. "Yeah, it might seem that way. The Church was our first customers, they mostly used our services to do something that was thought almost impossible. Purifying cursed blades and turning them into holy ones."
Kiba cringes a little at the mention of holy swords, but in the end, he doesn't say anything.
Rias takes out a phone and there is an app with a dark background and the letter 'A' on it. She clicks on the app and a shop opens up, there are many Japanese themed body pillows and limited time anime posters, she blushes a little and goes to the search tab and searches for a 'Necronomicon'...
She frowns and shows her phone to Haruto. "...You sell copies of the Necronomicon."
Haruto blushes in embarrassment slightly and says. "Hey~ we sell other things like the Devil's Bible too. Also, look at the price for a copy of the Necronomicon."
Rias looks at the price and her eyes widen. "One hundred high leveled dragon souls? Why would you even need them?"
Haruto shrugs and says. "They are in high demand. We also revive some dragons so the White Dragon Emperor can fight them. The guy gets hard just thinking about battle. He is honestly kinda boring."
As he says that Haruto has a bored look in his eyes. Rias sees it and wants to ask about it, but she stops and goes towards the information tab on the Abyss App and searches up White Dragon Emperor… the information tab that popped up is worrying, they have such articles like 'Strongest White Dragon Emperor?' And such, so Rias uses a couple of million dollars and buys the information… and her eyes widen as she sees a silver-haired man.
As she keeps reading on she gets even more worried.
She looks nervously at Haruto and says. "That… is quite worrisome."
Haruto smiles at that and gets up, he leans over Rias' desk, until his face is only an inch away from her's. She has a calm look and looks at his eyes.
Azia covers her eyes in embarrassment at this, though she looks through her fingers and sees Haruto smirk at Rias.
"Don't worry. I will kill the White Dragon Emperor if he steps out of line." Says Haruto with a smile on his face, which slowly turns malicious. "You are mine Rias, God could descend and wouldn't be able to do anything if I decided to hurt you. I will plunge the world into the next great war if needed."
Rias blushes at that and looks at the side, too embarrassed to meet Haruto's gaze.
"Baka~ don't say such things." Whines Rias weakly.
"Ara~ Ara~ that is quite bold of you Haruto." Says Akeno.
Haruto looks at Akeno and a glint appears in his eyes too. Well, he did say all those big things for Rias, but he knows that God is dead, he is nowhere near strong to Biblical God's level. He isn't necessarily willing to risk his life for just a tight hole, but Rias does not need to know that.
….
At the same time, Issei is cycling when a deep voice speaks in his head. "That kid… he feels strange."
"Haruto? What do you mean by that Ddraig?" Asks Issei, he can hear a strange tone in the Heavenly Dragon's voice, something that he had never heard before.
"I feel that the boy feels strange. If I didn't have access to your memories, I would never believe that he is truly eighteen years old." Says Ddraig, again speaking in that strange tone of his.
"Why is that?" Asks Issei curiously.
"He feels abyss-like." Says Ddraig, unsure of how to explain the feeling that he has been getting from Haruto. "That kid is hiding a dark secret. Maybe you should try getting some information on him."
"Hm?" Issei is confused by Ddraig. But his eyes light on fire and he clenches his fist. "I must stop Haruto from stealing Rias' virginity! I will show him! I also don't like how he looks at Akeno and Asia!!! GAHHH!!! HE ANNOYS ME SO MUCH!!"
Ddraig stays silent as he hears the rants of his new partner. Not knowing whether he should let him go down this path, or if he cam even atop it. 'Hopefully, he uses his jealousy and investigates that kid a little. He doesn't feel strong… but dangerous… I have only sensed only once or twice a person like this. Thay kid is truly something else.'
….
….
A couple more days pass like and three figures in white cloaks appear on Kuoh Town.
"Hmmm… I can smell the filth in this town." Says one of them, her voice sweet as she says that as it wasn't an insult.
"Remember, we are here on a mission. So don't let anything else distract you." Says another one of the cloaked people, she has a calm and emotionless voice.
"Hey~ Hey~ Xenovia, no need to be so serious~" Says the last member of the squad. All of them are female.
….
Rias looks at the report in front of her, she is currently in her classroom. But as she reads the repost she can't help it as she winces a little.
'Church members seem to be coming… I wonder where Haruto is, I haven't seen him all day.' Contemplates Rias, throwing the repost about the church members away. The letter will self destruct in a second.
….
Haruto on the other hand was in a lab room stripped down to a table, he is completely nude and Athena is wearing a lab coat as she looks at him.
"Throw away the illusion Haru, I want to see how you really look to determine your condition." Says Athena, she is currently wearing some glasses that were created by her power of divinity, the glasses have the imprint of Wisdom in them.
As Haruto cancels the illusion around his body, Athena's eyes widen. 'This… is even worse than I imagined.'
