章節 167: Can I Protect Mahiro-kun?
Chapter 167 - Can I Protect Mahiro-kun?
Squatting on the ground and holding her head, Irina kept muttering to herself, wondering why she had agreed in a moment of sadness.
Xenovia, on the other hand, seemed unaffected and stood by Irina, trying to comfort her with a serious expression.
However, no matter how everyone looked at it, her words of comfort only seemed to add fuel to the fire.
Irina felt even more remorseful and wished she could slam her head into the ground.
Unaware of this, Xenovia continued speaking.
Rias watched the scene with satisfaction. Now that Irina had become her peerage member, Rias knew that frustration would do Irina no good.
Moreover, Rias believed that, with her charm, it was only a matter of time before Irina and Xenovia willingly embraced their roles in her peerage.
"Jeanne, what about you? Would you like to join us as well?"
Leaving the church duo to deal with their regret, Rias turned her attention to Jeanne, smiling as she asked.
"Me?"
Jeanne was taken aback, not expecting Rias to focus on her so suddenly.
"Forget it. I'm not interested in becoming a Devil. If anyone in my family found out, they would probably come to kill me."
Jeanne shook her head, firmly rejecting Rias's invitation.
"Very well."
Rias didn't press the matter.
Unlike Irina and Xenovia, Jeanne showed no signs of hesitation, and Rias understood that no amount of persuasion would change her mind.
So, Rias quickly gave up on the idea of making Jeanne her peerage member.
Mahiro wasn't surprised by this result.
Jeanne had long abandoned church's nonsense.
Unlike Irina and Xenovia, Jeanne hadn't felt anything with her Excommunication from the church.
"Asia, how about you? Do you want to be my servant?"
Rias turned her gaze from Jeanne and looked at Asia.
"You're really going for everyone at once."
Mahiro couldn't help but feel speechless.
"Is there something wrong with that?"
Rias smiled lightly. "Asia, what do you think?"
Rias had long been interested in recruiting Asia. Since Asia joined their circle, Rias had repeatedly invited her to join her peerage.
However, Asia's beliefs were so devout that, even after being excommunicated from the church, she still clung to them.
To Rias, Asia was as steadfast as Mahiro, and she was starting to consider giving up.
But Asia was simply too remarkable.
Rias felt it would be a pity to give up on her.
"Can I think about it?"
Asia looked to Mahiro, as if seeking his guidance.
"It's your decision."
Mahiro gave no clear answer.
In fact, whether Asia joined Rias's peerage or not wouldn't greatly impact her current life.
After all, Asia was already part of their group.
But this was a major decision for her future, and Mahiro didn't want to influence Asia's thoughts.
He hoped she would make her own choice.
"Rias-san, if I become a Devil, will I be stronger and better able to help Mahiro-kun?"
After half a minute of thought, Asia looked up at Rias, her expression resolute.
"Ofcourse!"
Rias replied.
Evil pieces not only allow people to become Reincarnated Devils, but they also stimulate the body's potential to some extent.
"Then I'll become a Devil as well."
Asia agreed.
Mahiro looked at her, saying nothing.
This was Asia's own choice.
And in the end, it simply returned to the original course of events.
As long as there was no danger, Mahiro had no reason to interfere with Asia's decision.
Rias took out the bishop piece and quickly reincarnated Asia.
"Asia, now you're one of us."
Koneko still wore a serious expression, but there was a hint of joy in her eyes.
"Ah... Please take care of me in the future."
Asia was nervous at first, but then smiled happily. "Now I can help everyone better."
"Ara ara, what a good girl."
Akeno smiled warmly.
"Akeno, I'll need you to teach Asia about demonic power in the future."
Rias instructed.
"Of course. By the way, Mahiro-kun, would you like to join us?"
Akeno readily agreed, then looked at Mahiro.
"Sure, if I have the time."
Mahiro nodded in agreement.
"I'll work hard."
Asia was full of determination.
"Today's a great day. We've added three new peerage members."
Rias's eyes sparkled with joy.
Not long ago, she had been worried about her peerage, but now it had doubled in a single day.
And all the new members had great potential.
"Rias...We've had now total Eight members."
Akeno asked. "So, Have you found any potential member at school?"
Rias had been searching tirelessly for members for her peerage, but before today, she had encountered nothing but setbacks.
"Not yet, but I won't fill the spots recklessly just to complete the set."
Rias replied confidently.
Asia looked around and counted on her fingers. "Rias-san... There are only seven people here?"
Asia glanced at Rias, puzzled.
There seemed to be one person unaccounted for.
"Actually, I have another bishop."
Rias nodded and replied, revealing a small detail without hesitation.
"If fate allows, you'll all meet someday."
Rias didn't elaborate on her other bishop and ended the discussion on the topic.
"Alright, everyone, let's help Darling and Asia move in."
