The following morning, I woke up in my room. Last night, when Irina fell asleep, I brought her up to her room, then I headed to mine, where Asia and Raynare were already asleep. Today, when I went downstairs, Irina was feeling better, but not a hundred percent. My mom was cooking breakfast with Asia, and my dad was sitting at the table reading his newspaper. Raynare was in the bathroom getting ready for school, and Xenovia seemed to contemplate something.
"Are you alright there, Xenovia?" I asked. Xenovia continued to contemplate. I was about to leave her alone, but then she spoke.
"I was contemplating what to do next. For as long as I can remember, I have followed the teaching of God, but knowing that he is no longer with us, I thought it was time I do what I desire. And now that I know that God is dead, I'm a hindrance to the Church, so is Irina," Xenovia said.
"Okay…What exactly is your desire?" I asked. I have a feeling I shouldn't have asked because she is looking at me weirdly.
"I've always wondered what it would be like to have a baby. And who better to do it than someone as powerful as you, Hyoudou Issei. So, until I've done just that, I'll be staying in Kuoh, somewhere near you," Xenovia said. Huh? Didn't Xenovia get interested in my show counterpart because of me being the Red Dragon Emperor? So, why is she still interested in me? She doesn't even know I have Ddraig. Not that I mind. Just curious.
'Concentrate, Ise. You can't be looking for another member of your Harem. You still have a Satan Class Devil to take on a date. Trust me, you promised to bring her on a date, and you better take her on a date, especially now that your parents have taken a liking to her, not add another member. You can do that later,' Ddraig said.
'What?! I wasn't planning to add another member. I was just thinking why she was interested in me,' I said.
'I told you before, even if you hide me, no matter what, you will be attracting trouble and the opposite gender,' Ddraig said.
'I know that! That's the reason why I don't plan to hide you,' I said.
"Really? Then why haven't you wielded me once? You could have done so against the White Dragon Empress,' Ddraig said.
'Do you really want to have a battle then and there? Wouldn't you like to be on a more glorious battlefield? But if you really want to fight the White Dragon Empress, you don't have to wait long, in the Peace Conference, you can have your fight there,' I said.
'Oh-ho! What makes you think that?' Ddraig said.
'Really? You're asking that? For one, I was the one that killed Kokabiel, and having that kind of power could be considered a threat to the three factions. And the next reason is the biggest. I have a sword I called Excalibur, and the Angels will be interested in it since Sona and Rias would have to add that in their report,' I said.
'That's true. But what are you going to do when the Angels want you to hand over the sword to them?' Ddraig said.
'I'll give it to them,' I said while laughing.
'You're planning something. You're a dragon. And dragons don't just give away things they own. We are greedy by nature,' Ddraig said.
'Ha-ha-ha! That we are. And those that dare take what is ours will get what they deserve,' I said. My eyes momentarily glowed and became slitted before they returned to normal.
"If you're planning to stay in Kuoh, then you can stay in our house for us long as you need," my mom said to Xenovia.
"Thank you for the offer, Mrs Hyoudou. That would make it easier to get closer to Issei," Xenovia said. Irina then threw something in Xenovia's face.
"I'm staying here as well! I won't let you get close to Issei alone, Xenovia! If that's okay with you, Mrs Hyoudou," Irina said. That seems to get her out of her depression even more.
"Oh, that's fine, sweety. I'm just hoping that Issei would give me grandbabies soon," My mom said.
"But not too soon! Not until you're done with high school," My dad said.
"Did you hear that, Issei! Your parents are okay with us!" Xenovia said with glee. I just facepalmed.
Later after school, I went to meet with Sona. During the fight with Kokabiel, I don't know why Serafall wasn't around. I remember that she was supposed to be the Principal of Kuoh Academy.
"She was dragged back to the Underworld. She has neglected her paperwork for quite some time to stay here in Kuoh. She will return when she is down with the paperwork," Sona said. She remembered how Serafall's people had to drag Serafall back to the Underworld since she refused to separate from Sona.
"Huh? Paperwork seems to be the nemesis of every race," I said.
"He-he! It is, but I quite enjoy it," Sona said.
"So, Sona. Do you remember the thing you promised me in the sauna?" I asked.
"Of course, I do. And I'm looking forward to having alone time with you. But are you sure that's all you want for helping with the meeting?" Sona asked.
"That's all, you say. To me, spending time with you is a wonderful reward. Plus, I get to see you in all your glory. Spending time in the sauna with you alone with talking about our lives and our future, that's a better reward than anything material," I said. This made Sona blush.
"Ahem! If you're okay with it, how about we in an hour? I just need to finish this report for the higher-ups in the Underworld…Ise? Should I mention that you have a sword you called Excalibur?" Sona said. It was why she still hadn't finished the paperwork, she was finding a way to make sure that the sword wouldn't be mentioned, but it would be hard. Plus, it might contradict Rias' report.
"I don't mind. I wouldn't have used the sword if I didn't want its existence to be known," I replied.
"Are you sure about this? You know that the Church my come after the sword," Sona warned.
"I know. But just like I told someone earlier, I will give it to them," I said with a laugh.
"You're planning something," Sona said.
"Maybe. Maybe not. If you want to find out, then you'll have to be there when the Church asks for it," I said.
After Sona was done with her report, we went over to her place and had a nice relaxing time in the sauna. We talked about our plans for the future. I told her that I wanted to have a big family, hence why I wanted to be the Harem King.
Sona then told me her plan of making a school teaching about Rating Games in the Underworld. She also told me how many of the Higher-ups in the Underworld mocked her vision for the future. I feel sorry for her. She doesn't know yet that the Higher-ups rig the Official Rating Games.
It was here that I resolved to help Sona with her vision for the future. And for that, I would need to expose the true nature of the Rating Game. Who better to do it than Cleria Belial? I plan to use an item I got from my wish to get Cleria and Masaomi back since they are a symbol that can change the world. A Devil and God's follower being in love. A way to solidify the Peace Treaty in the near future.
