Lelouch broke some of the noodles in half before dropping them in some boiling water. "Good for you then." He commented as he moved away from the noodles and switched to the soup he was preparing.
"I just don't like it, it's personal." He hoped they would leave it at that, he didn't want to end up ranting about how little marriage meant to him when he grew up seeing his father with over one hundred wives.
Issei wanted a harem, but Lelouch doubted even he would want that many.
The rest of the Peerage left him alone to prepare the food and discussed how the training had been going so far and what was to come. For the first day, Rias wanted to start getting everyone's physical skills up to her standards, as well as see how well her newest members could handle the basics.
Asia had a natural talent in manifestation of Devil magic, not that Lelouch was surprised considering that was how Asia's Sacred Gear worked, but Issei had trouble focusing and had only managed to release a small orb of light on his first few tries.
Neither of them had done well with the boulder and Rias said something about how they were supposed to be able to break it with nothing but their physical strength by the end of the training if everything went according to plan.
And while Lelouch and Koneko had been sparring, Issei had ended up training with Kiba after Akeno dismissed him to focus on Asia for a little while longer.
After some time, Lelouch finished up everyone's lunch. "Alright, it's done." He wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed in satisfaction, looking out at the dishes he'd prepared rather quickly for everyone.
Aside from the Udon and the soup as well as some chicken and rice he had prepared, Lelouch had also prepared steak, salmon, some Italian pasta, and more. He also procured a number of different sweets, though he had a feeling Koneko wouldn't share very much.
It had taken him over an hour to prepare it all, but Lelouch knew everyone would be hungry and so prepared a lot of different things for everyone to try.
"Dude, you are amazing." Issei said through his bite of the steak sprinkled with some spices and a little bit of sauce to keep it from being dry.
The Pawn gulped down the steak and grinned, patting his belly. "If you were a woman you would totally be part of my harem." He announced, creating one of the most awkward silences in history.
Lelouch paused as he stopped as he slowly lowered his spoon back into the soup bowl. After a few minutes of letting the sixteen-year-old stew, he spoke. "What?" He voice was completely flat, daring Issei to say it again. "Do you want to say that again?" He raised an eyebrow. "Or did you jump back into your closet?" The reactions to that statement varied.
Rias splashed some water down her front as the water she was drinking went down the wrong pipe and she choked, trying to smother her laughter.
Akeno snickered while Asia, sitting beside Issei lit up with a blush.
Kiba chuckled, amused at Lelouch's retort.
Issei turned red and started to cough, choking on his next bite of steak at that insinuation.
Koneko just looked up at him from her place by his side and gave him a flat look. "You broke the perv." She deadpanned as she raised her fist. "Nice." She smirked when he gave her a fist bump, before returning her attention to Mt. Sweet. Udon lake had already been drained, now it was the mountain's turn to fall.
Her plate had looked like she had raided a candy shop.
A few hours after an eventful lunch, Lelouch found himself back outside with Kiba holding a wooden sword. He was dressed in a plain white t-shirt, a pair of blue shorts, and a pair of white socks with his new black boots, about ankle height, covering his feet.
He had purchased them the morning after he had ended up giving everyone a free show, needing new shoes after his first pair had been destroyed. Part of the reason he'd picked this pair was because of their steel toe insides, which would give him a little bit of an extra boost to his kicks if he ever needed it.
"You're not bad." Kiba grudgingly admitted as Lelouch stood across from him, panting. He still held his sword well though, pointing directly at the blond Knight.
"Better than I expected you to be. Have you ever used a sword before?" Lelouch wasn't acting like he was in some kind of anime, he actually had some kind of technique. Or at least shades of one, it was clear he was either really raw and lucky or out of practice.
Lelouch kept his eyes on Kiba as he slowly began to circle the Knight, like a wolf. "Not a sword like this." Lelouch admitted while he stepped slowly to his side, keeping an eye on Kiba as he didn't move from his position.
"I'm more used to Western-styled swords than this kind." It hadn't been expected of him, but he had taken swordplay up as a hobby and Jeremiah had been all too willing to teach the young Emperor.
It was funny, Lelouch had often practiced with the sword that had ended up murdering him.
Seeing Kiba's attention shift towards the forest when Issei's voice rang out in pain, the boy was training with Koneko for the moment, Lelouch charged forward quickly.
He slashed diagonally from Kiba's right shoulder to his left hip, or he would have if his strike hadn't been met by his fellow Knight. Grunting as the swords locked up, Lelouch feinted with a backstep, putting Kiba off balance and attempted to stab one of Kiba's thighs.
Kiba smirked as he fell forward, smacking Lelouch's blade with his own and sliding his wooden sword up the blade until it rested at Lelouch's neck. "My win." He said with a grin.
Suddenly, he felt his side being tapped. When the blond looked down, he saw Lelouch holding the blade of his weapon against his side.
