When we got home, I sat Raynare down, and I told her that there was something I needed to say to her. When I told her that she started crying, she thought that I would break up with her. I calmed her down and told her that was not the case. I then explained what happened in the Student Council Room the day before, then told her what happened today. When I said to her that Sona was now my fiancé, I expected her to get angry. Well, she didn't.
"Before I asked you out, I already expected something like this. I mean, you shout that you plan to be a Harem King. And when I found out that you're part of the Supernatural world, it made me realise that dream wasn't just a pipe dream as Harems are normal in the Supernatural world. Gods, Devils, and other species have one," Raynare explained.
"So, you're not mad?" I asked her.
"Mad? No. But, I might get jealous if you don't give me enough attention from your other girls if you ever have more," Raynare said with a pout.
"Are you sure you're okay with this? Because you might be able to find another guy that would love just you," I said. Raynare smiled at me.
"I've tried for a long time. And I finally found one; I'm not going to let that go. I finally feel like I belong," Raynare said. She then hugged me.
With that conversation over, we went downstairs to the kitchen to help set up the table. After dinner, we once again helped Asia with her Japanese. Just two days and she was improving by leaps and bounds, screw three months, with her current pace, she should be fluent in about a month. I should probably help Asia with her Sacred Gear as well. It would be able to protect her.
After teaching Asia Japanese, everyone went to bed, but I didn't. So, I headed out to clear my head. I went to the roof of my parent's house. It was pleasant as a cool breeze blew by. I thought about the future, especially now that I'm connected to the Devils due to my engagement with Sona.
I can't just ignore them as I've been doing. I'm not the type of person to ignore the problems of the person I'm engaged to, even if I barely know her. After clearing my mind for a few minutes, I was planning to head back inside the house. But when I turned around, I saw a cute young girl with long black hair down to her hips and grey eyes. Her ears differ from a normal person's as she has pointed tips, but her long black hair makes this feature difficult to notice. Her dark grey eyes have reptilian slitted pupils.
'Uhm…Ddraig? Am I seeing right? Or am I seeing things?' I asked.
'No, you're seeing right. The Ouroboros Dragon God is in front of you. You are so screwed…Well, it was good knowing you, partner,' Ddraig said.
'You stupid lizard! Aren't you even going to help me!' I shouted mentally. But I got no response from Ddraig. I may be strong, but I doubt I can match the Infinite Dragon God. I didn't know what to do as Ophis stared at me, so I just conjured some food.
"Cookies?" I said while holding the cookies towards her. She reached for it and started sniffing it, and then she ate it. After finishing all the cookies that I've conjured, she brought her hand out for more, so I gave her more.
Since Ophis was distracted by the food that I gave her, I decided to slip out of her sight. I went back to my bedroom and went to sleep beside Raynare. I was hoping that Ophis would leave me alone now that I was no longer in her sight. Ohhhhh! How wrong I was.
The following morning, I was awoken by the scream of Raynare. Thankfully, my room is soundproof due to my late-night activities with her. It didn't take even a second before I was alert and ready for action. That was until I saw who it was that made Raynare scream. It was Ophis. She followed me.
"What are you doing here?" I asked the dragon in disguise.
"More," Ophis said while bringing her hands out. Maybe I should have just ignored her. Like how people tell you to ignore stray cats and dogs because if you feed them, then they will follow you back home. I guess that's what happened here. Then I had an Idea. I can distract Ophis with some food that I conjure and then send her to the Mirror Dimension. I mean, she does want her silence, right?
I did my plan, and it worked. I was relieved when the danger was gone. But I'll have to check on her later. Although highly unlikely, I don't want her getting pissed, then finding a way out, but something I've learned in the last few weeks is to expect the unexpected and prepare for the worst.
"Ise? Who was that? And what was she doing here?" Raynare asked.
"That was Ophis. The Ouroboros Dragon God. I met her last night on the roof," I said.
"What the hell did you do to gain the attention of a Dragon God?!" Raynare asked loudly due to her shock.
"I fed her…." I mumbled.
"What?" Raynare asked.
"I fed her cookies," I said.
"You got the Ouroboros Dragon on your tail because you fed it cookies? That's insane!" Raynare said.
"You think I don't know that! I thought that the food would distract her long enough not to notice me disappear. I didn't think that she would follow me," I said.
"Okay! Okay! Now that she's gone, we don't have to talk about it again," Raynare said.
"Well. I have to release her later. I don't know if she can escape the Mirror Dimension on her own, but if she gets angry and finds a way to leave, she might come after us. That's why I have to check on her later," I said.
"Just promise me that you won't do anything that could get you killed," Raynare said.
"I promise I won't," I assured her.
After that fiasco, we went and had a shower and got ready for school. Just like the past two days, Asia was already prepared by the time we headed downstairs. Breakfast was ready, so we ate before heading to school.
The day was similar to the day before. Except that Rias was in our class once more, this time she wasn't probing Asia. Instead, she was glaring at me. There might be a chance that Sona told her about the engagement. And I was right. At the end of the school, she went towards me and gave me a warning.
"Be careful. Because trouble's coming your way when you became engaged to Sona," Rias said. She was right. I knew that trouble was coming my way. Serafall is protective of her Sona-chan, and me being engaged to her sister would make her come after me. Raynare saw that Rias said something, but she didn't hear it, so she asked me.
"What was that about?" Raynare asked.
"A warning," I said.
"Is she threatening you?!" Raynare said with anger.
"No. She's warning me about Sona's sister. Satan Leviathan. Just like Satan Lucifer, Satan Leviathan is a sis-con. When she finds out that her sister is engaged, she would be coming after me," I explained.
"First the Ouroboros Dragon, now a Satan. Why are you attracting such powerhouses?" Raynare asked with a chuckle. She is afraid of the situation but finds it a bit laughable. Hence the chuckle.
"Poor choices?" I said.
"Anyway, you and Asia go on home without me. I need to go to the Mirror Dimension and check on Ophis," I added.
When Raynare and Asia left, I entered the Mirror Dimension and started looking for Ophis. It took a while, but I found her. She was in front of my parent's house. I went towards her, and she looked at me. She then approached me.
"Where is this place? It is silent, just like my home. But different," Ophis said. I then explained where we were and what it was. She seemed to understand but lost interest after a while, and she started asking me for food.
While thinking, I thought I could use this chance to weaken the Khaos Brigade. If I can make Ophis stop giving them her snakes, they won't be as powerful. So, I decided to negotiate with Ophis. It took hours because Ophis won't listen to anything I say unless I give her cookies. But the negotiation was successful and unsuccessful at the same time. She agreed to leave and not return to the Khaos Brigade since she could stay in the Mirror Dimension when she wanted silence, but in return, she would be staying with me, and I'd feed her with cookies and other food.
