(A/N: Someone told me that's its pretty confusing sometimes when the MC is thinking and I decided to use {} for that instance, hope this will improve the way someone reads. See you later.)
Going back to my home, the first thing that greeted me weren't my girlfriends, my butler, or my subordinates and as much as I appreciate a good looking woman waiting for me, I don't like when I'm basically forced to deal with political stuff like being the guide for a devil in my own backyard.
"Yoshida-sama, welcome back. As you already know, Lord Phenex has decided to send his son here to see with his own eyes where his future wife will live for the next few years and this gentleman is Raiser Phenex, the third son of Lord Phenex and at the same time, he's the fiancé of my young lady. I hope you could show him the town and where Rias-sama will learn and govern the town."
{At least they still think that they are the rulers of the town. Well, who am I to break their dreams?}
"Of course, Grayfia-san. A pleasure to meet you, sir, my name is Yoshida Haru, a humble bar owner."
"Riser Phenex, that my name ,you filthy human."
{Even if you say it like that, I can still see that you are forced to act like a young master, this will be interesting}
"Sure thing, bats. Well then, it wasn't a pleasure to meet you Grayfia-san, but I hope we can meet sometime in the future and drink a coffee together and as far away as possible from politics. Shall we move bats?"
Raiser just humped me, but at least he was walking behind me.
After ten minutes of walking in silence, Raiser finally sighed.
"Sorry about that, but I'm pretty sure you already have an idea on why I act in such a way, am I wrong, Yoshida-san?"
"Not at all. I'm guessing it has to do with you being forced to marry a fucking brat that only knows how to create problems and without her family she would most likely end up as a sex toy for some big shot in the devil world."
"Right on point, Yoshida-san. I was forced by my father to marry her, because we need to keep the noble blood in the family or some shit like that and as revenge for forcing me to marry that princess, which to be fair is starting to look hot as fuck, but still, her personality doesn't attract me, not to mention the fact that I already have a lover, even though we can't be officially married."
"Sorry to hear that, I know or at least I can relate to some of those things. I have three girlfriends and one of them is a devil while the other two are from two powerful families and like in your case politics and the usual keep the royal or noble blood between us and kill all outsiders that try to steal it. My honest advice for you is to find a way to break the engagement before it's too late, because when the whole devil world would start preparing for your marriage, it will be already too late, and not even a god would be able to save your reputation if she leaves you or someone steals her. Also, you can call me Haru, I don't mind the honorifics and to be honest, I prefer to be called like that rather than being called Yoshida-sama."
[+30 Respect with Raiser Phenex for understanding his struggle and pain. He hopes the two of you can become friends - can lead to a romance route with???]
"Thank you, for listening to my misery. It's nice to know that there are people that are doing this for their own benefit."
{If only you know, I'm not a saint, but at the same time, I'm not a devil. Not that it matters right now, after all, I'm the one that will benefit from having an amicable relationship with all of the parties}
Meanwhile, Grayfia was trying to spy on us, courtesy of her husband, who was growing paranoid about me and my true relation with Azazel, but a true devil was keeping her from interfering or hearing anything and that was pissing her off.
"Can you please let me do my job? I'm not going to assassinate your master, I swear on the name of my household."
"Please, my lady. I'm also doing my job and do I need to remind you that you disgusting spawns don't have any real power in this place? And the only reason my master is letting you or the two princesses even put a foot in this town is that he's a good man and that he doesn't need a war."{At least not too soon. There are more important matters than killing an entire race of supernatural beings}
"That's just making the whole thing suspicious, sir and as the wife of the current Lucifer I have the right to know if one of my own is in any kind of danger …that including your master."
Before she could continue, four black knives found themselves into her arms and legs while at the same time a hand was gently resting on her now exposed neck.
"Tell me, Miss Wife of the current Lucifer, what are the chances of you getting out alive from this place if I really want to end your pitiful and meaningless life?"
"I…"
"Seeing that you have some problems talking, I'll respond in your place. If by any chance I happen to have the strange desire to end your life, your chances of actually surviving or escaping from my grasp will be equal to zero, but as you can see I'm not really a violent person and at most I will just scare you…for now …"
Without waiting for her to respond, Sebastian takes his knives and disappear into the shadows, leaving a scared Grayfia on the cold ground to rethink her life choices and how close she was to die from the very first moment she put her foot in this political fight between an enigmatic boy and her husband.
At the same time, Haru and Raiser were drinking some whiskey in the Eternal Rest which was closed for the day.
"Tell me, Raiser, what made you take the young master route for your revenge? After all, we both know where this route can end for …well a young master."
"To be *hiccup* fair, I read a novel about a young master that *hiccup* fought and won against the main*hiccup* character…"
"And you didn't finish the book, I presume? Because you would have known how it will end for the young master, in every single fucking novel."
"How, how *hiccup* did you know?"
"It's a classic move for all of the people that stop reading midway through a cultivation novel and you are drunk, my friend which doesn't even have anything to do with that. Let's get you home before the devils start thinking I killed you or kidnaped you."
"But my youth is still burning *hiccup* with passion."
"Yes, of course. Guy-sensei would be proud of you, now let's go home."
{Thank god for my Gamer body, or I would have been in a worse state than him}
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
