Capítulo 152: Epilogue: Happy Dayz

It has been a few days after the troublesome film of Serafall, Masaru was waking up within his room. They have returned to the human world since everything was being handled by his family members since they wanted Masaru and the girls to enjoy their youth together.

"Deeper..." Akeno next to him whispered enticing words in her sleep,

"Masaru-sama... This is too much sweets to eat in the morning" Ingvild mumbled as she gripped the duvet tighter.

Masaru slowly sat upright looking at the girls sleeping all over of his bed together with him, strangely enough, Ophis who slept like someone who was laying in a coffin was on top of him but she did not awaken despite his movements.

Using magic Masaru pulls out his guitar from his wardrobe without making a noise, taking a deep breathe Masaru lightly plays the strings of the guitar generating a light melody prompting the girls to wake up.

"I've been looking for that something" Masaru gently sings, despite the melody and Masaru's soft voice the girls woke up with smiles looking at him.

Masaru was not certain why but today he wanted to sing something. he just felt like it "One thing that makes it all complete"

Masaru silently drew a breath before continuing, "You find it in the strangest places"

Akeno sat upright resting her head on Masaru's shoulder, "Places you never knew it could be"

Masaru continued to sing, he did not expect the girls to tear up a little as they continued to listen to his words "Well, for me it's waking up beside each of you"

Masaru glances at each of the girls "To watch the sunrise on your face"

Masaru leaned towards his left to kiss Akeno "To know that I can say I love each of you"

Masaru continued to gently play the melody, "In any given time or place"

Ophis who faked her sleep began to really sleep as she found the melody pleasing for her ears, "It's little things that only I know"

"Those are the things that make you mine"

>\/<

Cooking in the kitchen the girls were particularly full of energy still playing the song Masaru sang for them in their mind, Diana despite being pregnant still woke up early in the morning and heard the song Masaru sang for the girls. She was quite jealous feeling her son should sing a song for her too someday, but the balance in the house was excellent.

"Uh, Uhm? Can I help?" Brynhildr asked since she slept in the guest room she was a bit flustered to hear Masaru's beautiful song.

"Sure, can you help here" Akeno gave her task to complete, meanwhile, Masaru was silently watching the girls cooking.

"Lifelike this, is worth fighting for" Masaru muttered as Diana took her seat next to him,

"You found it? Your centre?" Diana asked as she could feel a fire was burning within Masaru's soul, it was moulding under the control of Origin into Masaru's last piece required for his sacred gear without him knowing it.

"I already knew it, I was just reminded of it... For the sake of our peaceful life, I will become the light and darkness" Masaru swore to himself with conviction, Diana nodded as she felt he was getting closer to the day where he will learn about his path.

"Be careful it's still hot" Shirone came carrying the plates while Ichika came bringing the drinks, everyone was enjoying their breakfast together.

After breakfast Masaru and the girls said their byes leaving Brynhildr, Kuroka, Ulrika and Roygun who had tasks to complete in Hiei for Masaru. Diana took it upon herself to look after Ophis for the day.

"It has been a while we walked together like this" Akeno said while holding Masaru's arm,

"Yes it sure has" Masaru answered as he could remember how the boys in the academy gave him troubles for his relationship with the girls when he first came to Kuoh Academy, not far from them Masaru spotted Barold who was carrying Aika's bag,

"Morning Barold, Morning Aika" Masaru greeted followed by each of the girls who also said their greetings.

"Oya, if it isn't the Demon King and all of his wives" Aikai greeted with a smile as she scans Masaru's body before raising her brows for an instant before reverting to neutral face,

"Masaru" Barold greets Masaru before greeting the girls,

"I can understand why you girls flock around him," Aika said with a teasing smile but she was defeated by Akeno's smile.

"Same for you, your choice in men is quite unique" Akeno responded as she naturally understood the meaning behind Aika's words, even she had personally experienced it so many times. The dominating power of Masaru's dragon.

Aika blushed a bit, "Hehe, well Barold is honest and caring... He accepted everything of me, so I thought of giving it a try" Aika said causing the girls to flock together as they chatted,

"How have things been for you the past few days?" Masaru asked as he and Barold followed behind the girls.

"It has been going well, ever since Issei returned the peerage feels a bit normal. Did you give him some sort of advice? He even swore to never endanger his life as he did with Shalba" Barold said feeling amazed how Issei was growing up, he thought Issei would take a long time to make a move on Rias and he did it after a few pieces of advice from Masaru and once again, he grew up after a piece of advice from Masaru.

Masaru chuckled "I gave him a piece of honest advice and made him realize just how it looks like when you try to rely on your friend to look after your girl if you're dead" Masaru answered.

Barold nodded feeling a bit glad that Masaru is the way he is. "Apparently Rias is going to visit the Vampire Nation to meet Gasper's family, during the assault of the Hero Faction a hidden power was triggered and for the sake of our safety Rias intends to get answers"

Hearing about the Vampire Nation Masaru began to think about Cicily, 'Maybe I should go make a visit, last time I remember Khaos Brigade had an involvement in their struggles' Masaru thought,

He completely has forgotten about the Vampires because of their arrogant personality and thinking of their above all attitudes. "I see, I heard about his power but I can only guess it will be something similar to my sacred gear. Perhaps a soul within the sacred was stimulated enough to awaken" Masaru speculated.

"Your sacred gear?" Baldor asked, he was quite surprised that Masaru would mention this.

"Yes, although my sacred gear is one. But at the same time, it can be classified as Five Sacred gears because five souls reside inside it, this grants me different Balance breakers." Masaru explained since this information was already circulating through the alliance under the questioning of other factions who joined the alliance.

Barold swallowed his saliva hearing Masaru's answer, it was a bit difficult to understand but just from knowing five different balance breakers meant Masaru had even more variety of methods to take down his enemies.

"I will tell Rias about this speculation" Barold thanked Masaru.

Soon they arrived at the Academy, the male students were used to the sight of Masaru being surrounded by the girls although it did not stop them from feeling jealous.

"That Demon King!"

"He will be leaving the end of this year, we can try to get girls then"

"But I heard Hyoudou is getting popular with the girls in the Occult Research Club... Just what is going on?!"

Masaru shook his head walking ahead despite hearing the gossips.

Entering the Disciplinary Committee office, Masaru and the girls all went to sit in the lounge. Ichika went to prepare the tea while Masaru began to talk about an important matter. "I have actually forgotten about an important matter but,"

Masaru waved his hands as several magic crests materialized on the tables of everyone's desk, suddenly large stacks of papers emerged from the crests. "These are personal information about Magician's who wants to sign a contract with each of you, as you know this is incredibly important to choose as this can make or break your future as a devil"

Ichika came with a pushing cart with cups of tea she brewed for everyone, Masaru look at each of his girls with a smile "If you feel uncertain, make sure to ask me. This is your future, I will support each of you even if you made a wrong choice. We can always fix it later" Masaru said with a smile as everyone enjoyed their tea, seeing that his papers were not on his desk,

"Where is yours?" Everest asks prompting Masaru to snap his fingers, but unlike everyone else, his desk and both sides were covered with stacks of papers. Seeing this the girls' eyes all bulged out,

"Tha-That sure is a lot" Everest said swallowing her saliva.

"Well that Mephisto Pheles really is a pain in the ass, I told him to filter my application but because of a large number of Magician Rebels that popped up they are understaffed to handle my request" Masaru explained why he had to do everything manually, he made sure to send Ulrika, Roygun and Kuroka's requests to them already so they should be doing their own reviewings.

After talking some more especially in regards to Hiei's expansion towards the west, Masaru was considering placing his eyes on America as well. For the sake of Peru, he had to confirm that the gate was being securely guarded.

Afterwards, everyone went back to their classrooms to start the school day. The teacher reminded the students to review their further studies directions and what careers they wish to pursue, thinking about this Masaru was considering of majoring in varies fields since he intends to make a front Company for Hiei. Although he had the family company to deal with, he intends to run Hiei as his personal Company which he will later break up into different business areas for each of his children in the future to inherit.

Thus several days has passed, live has carried on as usual while Masaru began to detect the faint presence of a flame within his body. According to Drago, Masaru's strong conviction to protect the peaceful life os the girls lit a fire within his soul and the spellbook gave it a consciousness but it is still growing so he will have to wait for a while before he will be able to see the results of what is going on within his sacred gear.

"Ara? The list of people really is long... It is difficult to choose" Akeno complains although she was purposely leaning against Masaru, it took them several days to filter through the list of magicians to only have the most capable ones.

"I wonder just what do these people think of signing a contract with me though, their abilities are simply to pale in comparison to my standards" Masaru smiled wryly as he threw away more papers and still have not found a single candidate that is up to his standard.

"Masaru, what do you think of this girl?" Everest shows Masaru a report of a female Dragon Priestess from Northern Germany, looking at the name Masaru called one of the Information Officers of Hiei to sent a report on the girl's personality and personal history. Soon the report was warped in front of him as he hands it over to Everest,

"Here is her history information, it may seem like I am doing something wrong, But I rather sign a contract with someone with a reasonable history" Masaru explained the reason he thorough investigated each of the candidates on the list for everyone.

"Thank you" Everest kisses Masaru's cheek as she read through the information, this was one of the good perks for having Hiei at his disposal as he could give his girls information to choose proper magicians.

After taking down more than half the applications forms, Masaru stretched his body while wondering if the magicians are really fools trying their luck. He materialized a magic crest to contact Mephisto Pheles.

"To think you will contact me so soon..." Mephisto said with a sullen expression, however, Masaru knew this old man was teasing him.

Masaru sighed, "Mephisto, what is with these applications? Are you trying to send fools for me?"

Mephisto laughed heartily at Masaru's displeasure, he felt a sense of closeness seeing Masaru being frustrated as he himself was frustrated at how many magicians wanted to sign a contract with Masaru. Due to his abilities and fame. "The young ones asked me with pleading eyes that they wanted to try their luck but as expected none caught your fancy?"

Masaru smiled wryly before nodding "I only went through half the documents you sent, and it is really a pain. Don't you have a decent Magician in mind?"

"Hmmm... There is a magician, but she is a vampire" Mephisto said before continuing, "The only problem is the fact she is a swordswoman as well, and because of that no devils tried to sign a contract with her."

Masaru thought for a moment, "Is she in Romania? At the Vampire Nation?" Masaru asked,

"Yes, she is the sister of the Carmilla Empress," Mephisto said while nodding

Hearing this Masaru shivered in shock, "You are telling me, that swordswoman who is more skilled than an assassin is a Magician as well?"

"That's why I said it, she is too multi-talented that other devils did not want to sign a contract with her. Because they feel inferior to her... Her name is... Cicily Carmilla" Mephisto said with a smile.
