Chapter 123: My cute, tomboy exorcist
"Ravel, can you help me with the "Rating Game"?"
"Yes, Onii-sama. Leave it to me."
Ravel was good at management, so it was better to leave the matter of setting up the game and the other issues to her.
As for him?
He needed to make some preparations for all his peerage members, making them stronger as he knew they were still far from reaching the satisfactory level he wished for.
Still, those problems could be solved with weapons.
Riser had gotten the "Researcher" ability, and he could make a special weapon for them.
Frankly, he knew that he had wasted a lot of time, especially when he had holed up in his hut for several days, but such a day was no longer, especially when there was something that he had to achieve.
However, before that, Riser needed to do something.
"Xenovia, how about you follow me for a walk for a bit?"
"Eh?"
Xenovia was surprised, but she nodded.
As for the rest?
They didn't think too much and only thought that Xenovia would become their sister. Moreover, even with their combinations, it was impossible to take him down, so more help was needed. Lastly, they had communicated with each other previously.
Even though Xenovia was a former exorcist, she wasn't bad or even a little stupid.
Either way, all of them believed that they would be abandoned by Riser.
Moreover, compared to Xenovia, who was like a cute little gorilla, they also believed in their own charm.
As for Ravel?
She didn't overthink it. After all, no matter how many women he had, it was all the same. They were just places to release his pent-up desire. Even worse, the toilet. They were different from her and him, whose relationship transcended above all of them.
Still, when she returned, she was going to monopolize him all the time.
"Yubelluna, Mihae, come with me."
"Yes, Ravel-sama." 2x
Meanwhile, Riser felt his body shudder for some reason. He turned his head and happened to catch Ravel's eyes. Her eyes were full of meaning as if she told him that she wouldn't let him go when she returned.
"....."
Even if her eye color was dark blue, he felt like those eyes were like a bottomless sea, trying to drown him deep, unable to get out.
While it might be strange of him to say this, he knew that Ravel had a dark obsession inside her heart.
Frankly, the feeling of falling in love was normal, especially for a young woman her age.
It was also the same case as Rias, who often tried to seduce him, but Ravel was different.
Ravel didn't wish to make him fall for her. Instead, she wished to dominate him, making him think only of her and making him crazy about her.
If Ravel was a male, there was no doubt it was creepy, but she was a female, so this obsession was unique and strange... or if he had to be cruel, then she was downright scary.
Yet, like how she had decided to support him no matter how dark his future was.
He would accept her no matter how twisted she was.
Still, frankly, he was afraid that after last night, it was impossible to escape anymore, and he also didn't wish to escape from her.
Was he a masochist?
Was this the effect of his "Crisis" ability?
Yet, what could he do?
The more beaten he was, the stronger he was.
So, he might as well enjoy the feeling of pain and being chained.
Yet, Ravel still underestimated him as she thought about chaining him down and conquering him. he had realized her intentions and let her play as she wished; that way, it was more fun.
"Riser-sama?"
Xenovia looked at Riser and felt confused as he fell into silence so suddenly.
Riser made a strange movement with his legs in a subtle way so as not to be noticed, then apologized, "By the way, I have to apologize to you since I have left you alone for several days."
"No, please don't blame yourselves." Xenovia shook her head. "I know you are busy after all."
With what had happened afterward, she knew he was extremely busy, which was normal, especially when he had done many crazy things.
"So, how was your stay? How did you feel about living in the Underworld for the first time?"
Even though it was easy for the devil to go to the human world, it wasn't easy for the human to go to the Underworld.
No, it was almost impossible.
Frankly, it wasn't allowed.
But who was he?
Even if someone knew that he had brought a human, no one would say anything as they would only think that Xenovia was a lover, a slave, or a pet that he picked up on the human world.
Moreover, with his status, having one or two privileges was normal.
"It's a bit weird at first since the sky is purple, but the morning and night are similar, so I have gotten used to it after staying for a few days."
"You sure have a good adaption."
Even if it was a reincarnated devil, they might need time to adapt their lives to the Underworld.
"Probably due to my job as an exorcist? I will need to adapt in every situation after all."
"I know that it might be too late to say this, but how do you feel? Are you okay to leave the church?"
"Yes, I am okay."
As they walked around the hill near his villa, she stared at his eyes firmly as she answered his question.
"Don't you have any regrets or anything?"
"...truth to be told, I don't have much of a good memory of the church either." Xenovia was quite awkward as she told him her story. "I am not good at socializing, and the people around me have always thought of me as rough. The only person I am close with is Irina, the stupid exorcist who came with me last time and also my legal guardian. Except that I don't have a close relationship with anyone."
Yes, due to this, she realized how alone she was.
Moreover, she also didn't wish to trouble them with her trouble.
After all, she knew the truth of the death of the Lord.
If she involved them with her problem, she couldn't imagine what the church would do.
The best way for her to was to leave, yet as they walked and walked, Riser never mentioned whether she wished to be a devil or to be part of his peerage members.
Moreover, he also didn't mention anything about whether she would be his lover or not.
Suddenly, she was frightened as she thought that he didn't wish for her.
She didn't have someone she could rely on except for him.
If he abandoned her, too, then what should she do?
[100 meters away, there is a good and quiet spot. You can take your camping gear from your space storage and have fun with your cute, tomboy exorcist, telling her how the devil have their fun.]
[You don't need to worry about being interrupted since you don't stay there for more than six hours; no one will come to search you two.]
[It should be enough for you to take care of her.]
"....."
Riser fell in silence and thought that the system was as abhorrent as ever, but it seemed that he was also affected since he didn't hesitate to move in the direction that was pointed by the system.
Still, as he wanted to know her better and how her life was in the church, it seemed she had a misunderstanding.
Xenovia held his hand as she looked at him with red and tears-filled eyes.
"...Riser-sama, do you not want me?"
"....."
