Chapter 281: Plot change, Haqua hardens her heart

Chapter 281: Plot change, Haqua hardens her heart

As Rias, Sona, Serafall and Yasaka attended the boring Alliance meeting and the rest went to school.

"Haqua, how did you sleep last night?"

Compared to that, wouldn't it be more fun to ask the purple-haired girl in front of her? Compared to yesterday, she seemed more energetic.

They sat in the living room near the TV.

"Ah, um.... Last night was the first time I slept well in a month. It's all thanks to you, Eiji. Thank you."

Haqua smiled and looked at Eiji with a gentle gaze. If Keima and Elsie were here — they would definitely be surprised that Haqua wasn't acting rather tsundere like usual. And what's with that gentle gaze? The protagonist Keima out there didn't know he was starting to have the illusion of a green hat on top of his head and seemed to be missing something.

Many things that had happened changed Haqua's mentality. According to Eiji, this was Haqua in the plot after the anime ended... Don't know which season, he forgot.

"How many times have you thanked.... Speaking of Vintage and Qlippoth, you're not in a hurry, right?"

"Eh? Yes. Of course it would be best if we destroy them right away." Haqua tilted her head in confusion. Her hagoromo was still hovering around her neck, reminding Eiji of a certain silly goddess in another franchise.

"You're right, but we don't know for sure where their base is yet. So we have to wait for the other side to make a move so we can track them down."

That was a lie. In fact since the battle with Gira and the army of evil spirits she led yesterday. Eiji had already ordered the Shadow Gardens to move in the shadows as usual. Alpha was busy training Bella and Liala, but the other shadows were still reliable.

As proof this morning, Zeta had already managed to track down the evil spirits from their scent and found that Rizevim had set up a new base somewhere.

This is good.... From his "Future Insight", Eiji roughly knew the movements of the villain group.

That's why at the moment, he wasn't surprised by Jeanne suddenly entering with a green-haired girl in her hands.

"Eiji-sama, I found out this girl triggered the home defense mechanism. What should we do about her?"

If it wasn't a girl and her appearance was pretty enough, Jeanne wouldn't have bothered to ask because Grayfia had taught her to instantly kill people who clearly had evil intentions because it triggered Eiji's home defense mechanism which was divided into several levels.

"Hmm.... Haqua, you seem to know her."

Eiji's words made Jeanne, Grayfia and Asia who skipped school because they had just finished exercising stare at the purple-haired girl.

Haqua looked at the green-haired girl whose body was tied up and whose mouth was gagged by a small ball with a surprised look.

She nodded, "I know her. She's Lune, my former partner who has also joined Vintage."

Lune was unharmed at first glance, but she fainted from receiving a small portion of Eiji's Reiatsu added to the defense mechanism. The girl's soul was injured and she fell into a coma.

"Then it's up to you." Eiji said before drinking the coffee Grayfia made. Even after he fucked her hard, the silver-haired woman was still able to do her maid work perfectly.

Although her legs were trembling slightly.

"Are you sure?" Haqua looked at Eiji doubtfully.

Eiji smiled, "Yes, I was wondering what you wanted to do to your former partner who betrayed you."

[In the original work, Lune was one of the villains because she had killed one of the heroine. More precisely, she almost killed her. This girl was pretty, but that was it. Compared to Haqua, she's inferior and I'm not interested.]

Here it is again.... How many times will Eiji continue to tease her in his heart?

Haqua was anxious, a virgin demon and had been single for a long time at her age could not stand the temptation of men.

Asia and Grayfia were silent. Oh, by the way there were also Noel, Lucia and Zest who had just returned from shopping and Sheila who suddenly appeared on Eiji's lap.

"Eiji-kun~ I just returned from the Demon Realm. Do you know what information I just got?"

The legal loli whispered sweetly in his ear, she had just returned from playing. With her spatial tunnel ability, she was likely to die of boredom if she stayed at home without doing anything.

"Don't know, how would I know?"

"Fufu. It's about Sapphire~ I just met her and we talked for a while at the café."

[What?! Even my subordinates haven't gotten any results about that woman. And here, Sheila already met the protagonist's mother? Good job Sheila! I'll have to ask for the details later, for now...]

"Cough, is that so? Basara will definitely be happy if he hears this." Eiji pretended to cough and said calmly.

Sheila and the other girls, and even Haqua rolled her eyes.

They couldn't believe it! This guy was obviously very excited when he heard that the protagonist's mother had been found! And do you care so much about Basara? Pretty sure not...

"Hachoo!"

At school, Basara suddenly sneezed and had a bad feeling.

Satisfied with the joke, everyone's gaze fell on Haqua — they saw the girl walking towards the girl named Lune who was unconscious on the floor. Her scythe, the Scythe of Testament was burning with blue flames.

"Cruel girl~"

Sheila's eyes lit up, originally she thought Haqua was a typical serious and naive girl, she would forgive the one who had betrayed and hunted her and take a gentler method. But what did they see now? Eiji was even a little surprised by the choice Haqua made.

Haqua's beautiful face was expressionless and her gaze was cold, there was a hint of doubt, but when thinking of the things she had experienced over the past month. She didn't tell Eiji and the others, but she had almost died many times and it was all thanks to Lune, one of the Vintage members who was also hunting her.

Therefore—

"At least I'll give you a painless death, Lune."

The comatose Lune faintly heard Haqua's voice, she wanted to wake up, but it was useless. Her soul wound did not allow her to be able to wake up.

At that moment, Lune didn't know it was the last time she heard Haqua's voice and she would never see the world again.

"..."

Eiji sighed. By the way, he was watching Haqua who was sparring with Jeanne.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Using her Sacred Gear, not only swordsmanship, Jeanne also showered Haqua with many swords that grew from the ground. She fought seriously as the purple-haired girl felt her power was lacking. Before knocking on the door of Vintage and Qlippoth's headquarters, she wanted to become stronger.

So Eiji recommended her to spar with Jeanne. Only then, after Haqua saw how big the power gap was between her and the people from the Highschool DxD franchise where the scale of their battles was bigger than her franchise.

"Ugh...!"

Haqua was slashed by several holy swords growing from the ground, she was having trouble approaching Jeanne and could only dodge the other party's attacks while also parrying using her scythe.

"This is your limit, without your scythe... I'm sorry, but you're very weak. Just so you know, I haven't even used 50% of what I can do in battle."

With a red-colored tattoo shining dimly on her neck, Jeanne said proudly. Of course. As Eiji's servant and one of his women — she also has a Master-Servant contract.

Haqua naturally noticed the tattoo on Jeanne's neck, but she still hadn't realized how it worked. Her expression a little ugly, she could not argue with what the blonde girl said.

"I.... Is there no other way?"

?{Now I understand why you bothered to do this mock battle. As expected of you, host. You always have some subtle tricks up your sleeve}.

What nonsense was this woman talking about?

Eiji didn't admit it, but right now he was winking at Jeanne. Jeanne who had been trained to be a good girl understood. Asia who was also watching on the sidelines walked over to Haqua and healed her wound using her Twilight Healing.

"Haqua-san, it takes time and hard work to get stronger. You shouldn't rush things."

"I know but...." Haqua was in a hurry. Still, the girl named Asia had this kind of convenient ability. All her wounds quickly healed like yesterday. But unlike yesterday, this time the girl was emitting green light from her hands which made her wonder how much ability she had?

"What Asia said is not wrong.... But that doesn't mean there are no shortcuts to becoming stronger quickly."

Jeanne's words made Haqua's eyes sparkle.

"How?"

Jeanne pointed at the tattoo on her neck. The tattoo initially disappeared after Haqua surrendered and they finished fighting. But Jeanne was able to make it appear again.

"By having the same tattoo as me. Your physical power and magic will increase greatly. Asia and the other women around Eiji-sama also have it."

"And the way to get it is with...."

Jeanne was whispering something to Haqua and Asia was coaxing the purple-haired girl. Haqua's face was as red as Rias' hair and she glanced at Eiji who was watching in the distance.

Eiji pretended not to see Haqua's gaze and looked at the blonde woman brought in by Zest.

"Yo Lavinia, how are you?"

"T-That... Fine and..." Lavinia smiled awkwardly, she lowered her head like a little girl who did something wrong.

And said "Sorry! Eiji, I didn't do my duty properly. The organization I joined, Grauzauberer has been having problems in the past two weeks. So I was busy helping them."

"I see...." Eiji nodded, he was smiling and didn't seem to be angry which relieved Lavinia. For some reason, imagining Eiji hating her for this made Lavinia feel very uncomfortable.

But fortunately...! Eiji was a man with a big heart, he wasn't angry at her! This was in stark contrast to Tobio who had been following her around lately and babbling over and over again that Eiji wasn't a good person and told her to stay away from him.

At that time, the beautiful blonde witch was angry and would have killed the fake Tobio if not for the fact that his body belonged to the real Tobio. Unfortunately.... Until now Lavinia still had no way of removing the transmigrator occupying Tobio's body.

"If I may know, what's the problem? I might be able to help you."

"Really?! Eiji, you're a good person!....I'm sorry for shirking my duties as your contracted witch. Generally you can punish me because it's tantamount to a breach of contract."

"No, don't give me the good person card. As for punishing you? Forget it.... It's just a small matter. I hope you don't repeat it again and let me know if you want to take time off."

Eiji waved his hand, not taking it seriously even though he was a little tempted to 'punish' the woman sitting in front of him.

He glanced at Lavinia's breasts which as usual were hidden under her thick witch's robes. They had gotten a little bigger than the last time he had seen them. As expected from the woman with the third largest breasts in the franchise. She surpassed Rias in size.

?{Cough, host, your gaze.}

Don't worry, I'm using a 360-degree perspective. From Lavinia's perspective, she only sees me looking at her face.

?{.....}

Don't ask how her host did it, with his power now such a thing is not impossible to do.

Still, it's a pervert! .... Wait, is her host not a pervert? He's just pretty good at hiding it.

Just like Eiji thought. Lavinia didn't realize it, she nodded at the other girls who happened to be looking at her from the courtyard before looking at Eiji. She was no hypocrite and since Eiji was willing to help her, she did not hesitate to explain what kind of trouble Grauzauberer was in.

And this had something to do with what the protagonist Rito had said in his heart. Lavinia thought Eiji also knew because of this, so she just needed to tell him more details.
