And we're back with new shenaningans between son and mother. This chapter was really difficult to write because I didnt knew who to focused more: Kyou or Ichijou. In the end, I think I made justice for both. I hope you all think the same. Thank you for reading until here! Stay golden~!
as always, Highschool dxd does not belongs to me~.
And it was over. The golden week holiday on the beach was over. It wasn't bad, it was actually great. Eating grilled squid while dancing around the fireplace and just enjoying the waves. My dear daughters... Sigh, Daughter and step-daughters really putting their differences aside to enjoy the sea. So much, they convinced me to let them stay a little longer. Puppy eyes and excuses about stressing about college and work melted me into a blob of fluffy-ness, and so I return alone, while they enjoy one more week at the beach.
Well, at least I can have some time alone. Hajime is now around Europe, and Ichijou must still be in school by now, so I can move things back inside and make some dinner for him and I, plus the girls. I hope he had fun despite missing the beach...
I parked my car on the garage, and soon I started unpacking my things. Since it was just me, there was just two baggages for me. I placed them next to the door to the house and I was about to opened when out nowhere...
"Ichijou~."
"What the...?" *GLOMP!*. I felt a sudden embrace around my being, an attack coming out from the deeps of hell, trying to suffocate me with their two meaty lumps. The action was so sudden it rated me immobile and speechless for a couple of seconds, as those two fleshy, soft monstrosities tried to eat me whole! Recovering my sanity, I pushed the thing away, taking deep breaths to regain what was lost!. "Ah! What the hell?! Who are you?! Stay away from me!"
"Ara~? That fluffy feeling... Certainly belongs to a female. I know Ichijou bears an striking resemblance to a girl, but this squishy feeling left on my arms put in check my questions about him. This voice is also very unfamiliar to me." Is she analyzing me? Apparently yes with all that groping motion! Holy shit! A molester?! Oh, no! My Ichijou has been deflowered! By an sexy, tall, busty redhead!(which doesn't nullifies or even diminishes the gravity of the crime in any way, of course.) "Perhaps... You're his mother?"
"What if I am?! It may not look like, but I'm blackbelt in Karate! I can chop you to nonexistence!" I said, clumsily taking a battle pose. Kinda out of shape, but I can still do this! Instead, she looked surprised for a second, and smiled.
"Wahahah~! How cute. The mother is also very cute, it seems." She said, reaching her hands for my face and sandwiched my face between them. She was so direct, it left me immobile again. "I wouldn't mind having you as my dear sister-in-law~."
"Wawawawah... What?" I'm confused. What? How the hell is this happening? She removed her hands from my hand, and soon placed them on her hips. Gosh, look at her rack, she could make a living out of a farming industry.
"But let's not talk about the future. Speaking of which, I didn't present myself, did I?" She winked at me. "My name, as it calls, It's Alice Gremory. You might know for now, but one of the guests in your house just happens to be my dear daughter, Berolina Gremory."
"..."
"...?"
*DRIP! DRIP!*
"Madam, your nose is bleeding..."
"Mother, you say?" No wonder Rina-chan seemed so high-class. Her mother must be very rich to apparently buy rejuvenating medicaments or is just that pretty to be a top-model. Teen pregnancy is also a thing, but she's just too fabulous as well to be a runaway. Oh, great, I had a stroke. I cleaned up the mess running down my nose and took a deep breath. "I would never knew Rina-chan's mother would be so young and pretty. I hope that... I'm not touching any sensitive subject."
"Well, it's true that I married at a fairly young age, but that wasn't, and still isn't, a problem." She said with a smile. So there's where Rina-chan's politeness came from. She's also a very charming and good with words. "As I was saying, Pleased to meet you, lady Tsukino. May I have your name?"
"..." Oh God, I'm going crazy for this lady. She's so adorable, just like Rina-chan. However, something tells me she's dangerous. The aura around her is also kinda uneasy. I went quiet for a second, and finally tried to say my real name, only to cough it a little. No, I'm not falling for this again. "I'm... Anzu. Yeah, Anzu."
"Tsukino... Anzu. Charming."
"Well~, Alice-san, would you like to come in for a cup of tea?" I said uneasily, motioning to the entrance door, like a true host would do. Alice-San smiled brightly again, as she bowed lightly.
"I'd love to. Snacks and Tea are my second love besides my family." That's really, really juvenile. Endearing at some point, but strange and bizarre if you think about it. Whatever, I reached for my key, put it on the knob-hole and opened it wild to pick my luggages later...
Only to face a semi-naked pink-haired girl wearing panties and a towel over her neck and drinking milk out of the bottle. She looked so relaxed and just-out-of-the-bath-ish... What? Wait, is that... Another girl in this house?! What the... She looked at us! What now?!
"Ah, Lady Gremory and another stranger." She said with a bright smile, in total contrast for the current situation. I went mute out of the sudden, my brain being too damaged to comprehend the scene in front of me. The one who spoke was Alice-san.
"Ah, Liu Bei. You're here. I was worried about you, there is storm coming out." The redhead next to me said like it was no big deal. Wait, Liu Bei? As in the General Ryuubi Gentoku of the Three kingdoms Romance? Is she... Also a chuuni?! Alice-san picked me by the shoulders and presented to me to the pink-haired girl. "Oh, and that's 'stranger' is the dear, dear mother of your Queen, and therefore also your master."
"Wawawawawhat...?" I'm at loss of words. Ichijou is into this kinky stuff? Sure, that girl's pretty and have a large bust(I'm starting to have the feeling that Ichijou likes busty women.). Ryuubi-chan looked at me curiously, and smiled, opening her arms and letting her censor towel fall to the feet.
"Ah! Welcome back, dear mother!"
"Just call me auntie! Anzu! Call me auntie Anzu!"
"Now, now, I wonder where the others servants are at? Rina is still at home after the Rating Game, but you girls are still rolling, right?" Rating Game... Rating... Game... Rina-chan is in at home after... A rating Game... Is that a new lingo I don't know about? And why... Why is she... Wait, are those panties on the floor? And they're not from any of us! And again with this servant thing... And... Queen...
My son... My Kin... Just became a sultan...
...
...
*SNAP!*
"Did you heard that one, lady Gremory? That sounded like a large, thin piece of string ripping out."
"Indeed. How curious. Lady Anzu, do you might have any idea what caused such nois-...?"
"ICHIJOOOOOOOOOOOOU...!"
.
~~x~~
.
"Atchoo! Shit, what a day to catch a cold. Maybe training at the hot springs all the time was not the wisest idea."
"Another idea that makes no sense to me." And Ren said while taking a sip out of a juice box.
Currently I'm at the old building's garden, sharing my time with the albino ninja and talking about nothing in particular. This is the first time I'm skipping classes, but after that incident, I can't look anyone in the face for today. His backstory is typical: he's a ninja from the Hanzō village, also known as the Ninja village of the Hot springs, and his mother is the current KAguya, the number one shinobi and the head of the whole place, plus his father is unknown because apparently lady Haruka, the Kagura, has a whole bisexual harem, about dozens of men and women. That's... Actually pretty neat. Women can have harems...
I just shared my current adventures, my dad's failed harem, my dear mother and of course, the fact that he's my first male friend, all the other men either hate me or tried to kill me.
"The only male in a peerage. So it's a harem." He said taking a bite out of his sandwich.
"No! It's not! It's just a coincidence. I mean, I know that I'm the only male so far, but..."
"Harem."
"Oh, shut up." I said as I tried to give him a friendly punchy, but stopped since I didn't know if it was the right time to do that. This is what friends do... Right? Bah, better not risk it. Besides, he might get the wrong idea and then I'll be having a knife stuck on my skull. "What about you? Any luck with the ladies?"
...
Holy shit, I sounded just like my dad. That's depressing.
"Never compromise, remember? I do plan to have some kind of connection, but for now, I'm just doing my job. The alliance included." He finished with a sigh. Oh, right. Never compromise. I wonder if Hellsing also is around because of this. She's been a great ally and a good friend, so maybe this is just in my mind or something. I hope so, at least. "By the way, I've just graduated to become a high-class ninja, or Jōnin. So partners comes and goes with each mission. Plus, we have connections with other villages and we form alliances with other species in order to survive."
"Figures. Not even the supernatural can escape politics." I sighed. Gremory's father is the president of the underworld, Hellsing's father is a leader of a vampire faction and Akabane's the leader of the Supernatural Kantō region. Come to thing of it, despite being the Sekiryuutei, I'm pretty much the common commoner. "I wonder if the Sekiryuutei can have those powers."
"Well, you ARE a devil, and the legendary Welsh Red Dragon of domination is one of the strongest creatures in the universe. You can just Boost enough times to punch the current almighty lucifer in the face and claim your place. The problem is, that's not cheap. At all." He said as he rested his back on the outside wall of the building by my side. Gremory's father, the current lucifer... The white-haired pretty boy sitting on a pointy throne and thinking that everyone knows him. This is not the most desirable qualities in a person, but something tells me he have all the rights to be a douche. "You might die. Or else, you'll die. You can't even reach him without being crushed by his immense demonic power. At least was what my old lady said."
"He's that powerful, huh?"
"Not as powerful as the last Lucifer, but he's really close to the original. Sirzechs was a special case. Cohen is a lucky shot." He said. This left me speechless. Sirzechs is the father of Millicas Gremory, the current grandmaster and Gremory's grandad. Not to mention, the current lucifer is her father and Millicas's daughter is her mother. This make her somehow like Ai-chan, right? So... Why does she insists on being like Lady Rias? Wait, I can't say anything, because I wanted to be like senpai as well. "What about you? Want to be like your senpai?"
"Nah, I've already passed that phase. I can't be relying on him too much. Nor do anything too risky like him. Issei-senpai was also a special case, doesn't mean I can't be too." I said. He looked puzzled for a second, and sighed. "What I'm trying to say... Is that I'll try to be a hero on my own. Ichijou, the champion of the underworld... Huh, doesn't sound so bad."
"Honorable. You're a proud guy. This is not very smart of a move for a devil."
"Heheh, you can say that, but... I'll try. I'll become the heir senpai would be proud of. Yeah. The next hero, for his soul to rest in peace."
"..."
"..."
...
"Okay, seriously, we need an idiot." I deadpanned for him, as he also turned his face to me in a bored grimace. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I wish I had someone less serious than us to talk to. I'm a straight man type, of course I need an idiot to balance it out, or else I'll turn emotional. This happened during my training at the hot springs, and stuff happened. "Or one of us can be the one."
"In that case, i just so happen to have the perfect candidate."
"Sorry, no self-vote is allowed here." And we grimaced again with those clashing snarks. Are you kidding me? This is beyond ridiculous. It's like French kissing, we're both fighting for control with our tongue-... Holy shit, that analogy is awful.
But suddenly, I want to French kiss him.
...
...
Wait, what?
"GAAAAAAOOOOOH... IT'S HAPPENING AGAAAAAAAIN...!" I ascended from my seat and screamed at the heavens when that absurd thought just went through my mind. Ren also jumped out of the sudden in surprise.
"IS THIS HOW IS GONNA BE?! YOU SCREAMING NONSENSE OUT OF THE FUCKING NOWHERE?!"
"I CANT HELP IT! I JUST IMAGINED MYSELF FRENCHING YOU!"
"YOU WHAT?!"
"Eh...?" And after that declaration, reason hit my head like an arrow. Damn it, I just let that one run loose this time. Ren was eyeing me with that kinda of stars you give to a great spoiler or a shocking revelation. He was surprised. Well, I just said it. I can't do much now aside from to try to explain myself. Am I blushing? I am blushing. I can't even face him now. Here it goes. "Uuum~, yeaaaah~... Ya'see, Ren, I've been alone for a big while, now. I don't have much of a called 'social skills', and in all honesty, you're my first male friend and all. I have no idea how to handle a conversation with a guy, nor what I should or shouldn't do. Maybe it's because it's my first time, I can't really imagine you other than another girl, and my nervousness is making me say stupid things, because since you're such a nice guy, I guess I'm mixing my friendship with you with my crush on a girl."
"..." And the only response I had was an incredulous blushing face from him, as the ninja facepalmed himself and lifted him hand in a stop sign for me. "What the f...! No, just no! You should be angsting the flick out, dude! You're suppose to be a hero, you should be thinking about how you're gonna change the world with your power or how you're gonna protect your friends! Not thinking why you feel homoerotic attraction towards me!"
"I know. I'm so sorry..." I said, covering my face with my hands and crying tears of shame. That's just wonderful. I feel like throwing up again.
"Now I'm feeling weird too. That's just wrong. You're the escort, goddamnit! How the hell can I feel safe when I know you have feelings for me?!" He shook his own worries away and pointed a burning finger to me. I took offense at that I also pointed at him.
"Shut up, you! This is just a misunderstanding!" I said back, but he stepped back a few times.
"N-No! Stay away from me! Everybody knows how Hyoodou Issei was with his girls! And I like to sit without a donut floater, thank you!" He said as he shielded himself with his arms crossed in an 'X' across his chest. My eye began to twitch, As my levels of rage were going off the scale. In the end, I clapped his head in between my hands and head-butted him in order to make him stop!
"Shut up, you damn piece of bread! I'm not a pervert, and I just said everything I'm feeling right now is new to me! I might be in love with you or not! Well, I'm sorry, because I just don't know!" I said as he snapped back from his bitching and began to stare at me like a roadway deer. That was intense even for my standards, which are pretty low. I blushed again and turned my eyes to another direction, but still sandwiching his face in between my palms. "I just don't know, okay? Try to live your life without any friends or few good family members and see what happens."
"Well, I don't know who my father is, but I guess I can understand." He said. Of course. Another thing about being the child of a harem: sometimes you just don't know for sure who are your parents. His mother is the legendary Kaguya, the leader of the hot spring shinobi village. His father is another feather in her plumage. Kinda opposite of maybe Aria-San. "Not to mention, I have several half-siblings as well, so I can't really relate. If anything, I apologize."
"Nah. I'm sorry, too. Never should've said that. Sorry for making things creepy or anything." I said, returning to look at him. We crossed eyes, and then divert them away again. This is so awkward. My first boy friend, and I blew it up. Damn it. "So~, we good?"
"Only if you let go of my face." He deadpanned, as I realized I was holding his cheeks this whole time. I let go of him and an awkward silence fell upon us. So much for first interactions.
"Bah! Whatever, let's hit the road. Then I'll show you around." I Said to him after slapping myself a few times. "After that little show, I have no reason to go back and pick my stuff. I think I'll skip classes for today. Let's go eat something good."
"Yuramen, Sekiryuutei. I personally like tomatoes and ramen. Let's go to a ramen stand." He said in his usual deadpanned tone. I picked my wallet and checked it's content. Damn it, I'll have to save a few to buy groceries today. Maybe if mum is around, I can ask her to do that for me. "Let me guess: everyone for themselves."
"Sorry, I'm running really low. I have to feed the freeloaders in my house, and that's just..."
"Harem."
"Oh, shut it!"
*POP!*
"Eh...?" And out of the sudden, when I was about to take the first step, the head of a certain someone with green hair popped from the dirty ground, as she looked exhausted and tired, but she had her time to smile.
"Yo, Ichijou. It looks like you grew bored of the classes as well. What do you know? Maybe mr. Momma's boy isn't a saint after all. Although you can no longer be a saint, anyway." Annabelle Hellsing snickered under my feet, as I bend down to face her dirty face. "I literally just dig a tunnel out of my class, but it's easier than it seems. I'm a ninja, after all..."
"Just in time, Annie. I was going to eat a ramen with this new guy. Care to join?" I said nonchalantly. At least tried, since it'd be rude to simply say 'let's split' later. She gave me that pretty sly grin, and I avoided her gaze. "We won't split the bills. Everyone by everyone. Happy, now?"
"Well, you're honest. That's your biggest flaw and best quality." She morphed her grin to a smile, as she emerged her upper-half from the ground like a swimmer would, and began to scan the place. "Like always, the old building is the best place to escape. So, who's your friend? Is he a monster or a devil?"
"Well, not exactly. I just met him today, too. Here, his name is Ren and his a shinob-..." And I turned to the boy next to me. Whoever, when I did it, I stopped mid-sentence when I saw the livid look in his eyes. A shadow from his bangs was casted on his eyes, and the only thing I could see was his glowing yellow eyes shining at us. "Err... Ren-San, what's the matter?"
"Sayuri...?" He dryly said. I remember that name. wasn't that one which Beelzebub-sensei said back in the hospital? Wait, hold on. This means...
"A-Ah... Nii-nii...!" I turned back to Hellsing, and from the depths of hell, the image of a pale, trembling, sweating damphyr, slowly sinking herself on the ground. Back to Ren, he was about to take the first step. "I mean... Sowwy, Ichijou, but I just... Forgot to... Iron Albert... So... Bye!"
*POP!*
"Wait, what...?"
"SAAAAAAYUUUUUURIIIII...!" And hell break loose as Hellsing dived into the ground and trailed a dirty path away from us. Before I could even ask him, he simply pushed me away and dived into the ground like water too. I was perplexed for a second, with my ass on the earthy floor, and just realized that a magical barrier had been casted around campus...
...
"Ah! What the hell...!" I screamed to no one, as I followed the path left by them. Before anything, I tapped Aria-san's rune and let it run so that I could stay tuned to her if she picks the call.
.
~~x~~
.
And with the misunderstanding out of the way, I Tsukino Kyou was now brewing some tea for the two lovely guests in my house. By the way, I need to go out and buy some groceries and drinks later. We're running kinda low in food, and since we had... Let me see, Rina-chan, Annie-chan, Yoko-chan and now Ryuubi-chan, four more guests, I guess is understandable. I just hope no one is starving. By the dishes beside me, I can say that Ichijou is trying his best...
"What a lovely family you have." Alice-san said looking at some old photos in a special whiteboard, while Ryuubi-chan was taking a nap on the couch. The family photo board. All the small pictures of the Tsukino's in vacation or special occasions. Granted, there are not that many, but at least is something. However, instead of a picture, the redhead picked a small drawing from one of the borders. "Oh~, and what's that? 'Me and my bestiests Nina and Julia'? Who are those?"
"Well, you can say that they're childhood friends of Ichijou." I said, pouring the tea into two cups for us and putting the rest in a thermal bottle. Suddenly, *VOOOOSH!* I heard the sound of something like a broken pipe squishing water, and when I turned around, Alice-san was having a violent nosebleed! I picked some tissues as fast as I could and ran for her! "Oh, my god! Alice-San, what happened?!"
"Nothing, nothing. I was just... Elated to know he had some more... Acquaintances." She said in a rather calm tone, as her bleeding halted, and she used her own sleeve to wash it away. Don't do that, Alice-san! That dress is so pretty! "So... Childhood friends, huh? Wonder why there's no photos of them. Not even recent or old ones. How odd~."
"Well... Stuff happened, and then their dad forbid him to even come close to them... That's a long story." I said with a sigh. She turned to me, and gave me a confused look. However, it changed to an understandable smile and soothing eyes. "There's also not many photos because... I dunno, the camera was old, and they wouldn't appear on it. I don't even remember how they were. I wonder if they're good girls now."
"Like your son?" She asked with a sly grin. I don't know if she's mocking or praising Ichijou, that smile is misleading too much. I just ignored and walked to the kitchen table to place the tea set there. Alice-San walked to it and picked a cup for herself, taking a quick sip. "Huuuum~. Delicious. You're pretty good at this, lady Anzu."
"Really? Well, I did take some tea ceremonies lessons before marrying, so I guess I can make a good tea once in a while." I said, blushing and scratching the back of my head. This is so juvenile, but I did it anyway because it became an habit during my highschool years. I sat on the opposite side from her and sipped on my own coffee.
"Oh, my. If your son inherit such passion and grace, It makes me so happy that my little idiot is around him~" And again she was saying nonsense with nonsense. Around... Him... Are they a couple? I mean, Rina-chan is indeed good-looking and high-spirit, if not a little airheaded, while my Ichijou can be really rude and kinda of a jerk, but at least he's honest and down to earth. If they get together-together, maybe they'll fix each other to be a good and balanced couple. "What do you think?"
"They're... A good match, to say the least." I said, taking an awkward sip out of my tea. She's matchmaking our children? "But they're still very young. Maybe we should have them some time to get used to each other."
"Yeah, you're right. I'm just the old style kind of woman. Please forget about it." She handwaved the problem away, however, another one, even grimmer; surfaced and she placed the cup on the table, now using her hands to cup her face and support her breasts on the table. "Let's talk about something else, shall we?"
"Huh~... Sure."
"What would you do if your son decide to marry numerous girls in his life?"
*BAM!*
"Lady Anzu?"
"I have fallen, and I refuse to get up!" I said to the heavens, kissing the cold and hard floor.
I guess this is the start of a wonderful friendship...
.
~~x~~
.
"Damn it! ANNIE! REN! What the hell is wrong with you?!" I said to no one as I could see only two flashes of lights dancing in midair. My Boosted Gear now in standby for precaution. Everything was going so fast, everything was in a confusion of bright lights and flashes. In a blink of an eye, I saw a glimpse of light coming in my direction, and as Fast as I could, I dodged it, as a demon-wind shuriken just almost cut my head clean off! Those two are not messing around.
"YOU'LL PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO THE VILLAGE, SAYURI!" A silver flash echoed, as it clashed again and again against another green one. Suddenly, fireballs were fired against one another, and they clashed, causing an even bigger explosion!
"HAHAHAHAH...! YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME ALIVE, REN!" The green flash said back, launching another barrage of ninja stars against the other one, which responded it with it's own barrage of kunais! The weapons would clash and fall flat on the floor, unfortunately, also where I was standing! Rhongomiant materialized in my hand as I used it to defend myself against the sharp objects! But the ferocious attacks wouldn't stop!
"Could you guys please just...!" And they went back to clash with each other! The whole P.E. Area became a mess of holes, explosions and slashes, and since I was in the middle, they would collide and and bump into me, hitting me like some kind of pinball machine! I tried to call for their attention, but they again would hit me down! That's enough, now! "I SAID..."
[BOOST!]
*PUNCH!* *BOOOOM!*
"Uwah...!"
"Hyaaah...!"
*WOULD YOU GUYS SHUT UP?!" I said as I punched the ground with all of the strength in my Boosted Gear, and in the end creating a crater which size covered good part of the P.E. Area. The two ninjas were taken back by the impact, and landed on opposite directions, with me being the midway between the two. Finally! We can start again and talk this ove-... AAAAAAAAAAH! FUUUUUC-...! I think I broke my arm AGAIN!
"Shit. That was a close call." Getting out of my own misery, I heard from a side. I turned to that direction and saw ninja balancing in one of the cracks of the area, cracking her fingers with her thumb again. She regained her composure and looked at me. We clashed stares. "Hey, Ichijou, that was close! We were just having a good time trying to kill each other~!"
"Don't give me that crap! If you're gonna kill, then at least give me a reason! He's my escort, y'know!" I said to her, as I turned to Ren, who was still bloodshot from the adrenaline from before, standing up and cracking his neck. "How about you?! What's your excuse?!"
"Tch! Family matters! Outsiders can't say shit!" He blasted. I frowned at him, and he immediately changed his persona, now turning a little red and avoiding eye contact with me. "But... I'll tell you... Because you're my ally. And I'm not like that. Sorry."
"Don't sweat it, bro. Ichijou may not look like, but he's an alright guy. He's a tsundere, also." I turned back to Hellsing, and she was shrugging like it wasn't part of her business. I frowned at her, and she just gave me a shit-eating grin. "You want a reason, right? I'll give you a reason, then! This lad in front of you, the silverette with hidden flat-boobs, is my dear, dear older half-brother. And he wants me because I abandoned Hanzō village in order to pursue my dream to become the Vampire King!"
"So... Your real name is Sayuri. I understand your ambition to become the Vampire King, but I can't see any problem in wanting to kill YOU." I turned back to Ren, as he coughed a little. "Let me guess, she either is wanted because she knows too much about the Village Secrets, or because she either killed a hundred other companions, right?"
"..." Ren stayed quiet for quite some time, before coughing again and turned his golden eyes to me in a threatening way. "You don't understand, Ichijou. Granted, I'm still yet to reveal why I'm here and why I need some guidance and a tour around Kuoh's campus."
"..." I gulped. Yet, I didn't think that for a while. I was too happy to have a friend to care. But not, I'm afraid I'm between my first ninja friend and the second deal. He frowned at me a little more, and then turned his attention to Hellsing.
"Very well, I'll say it: the reason why I'm here it's because this place, Kuoh academy, will be the place of meeting between the leaders of the underworld and the remaining high class of the vampire kingdom. They hired Ninjas from the Hanzō village to serve as their bodyguards." He spoke, as his gaze became even murderous at Hellsing. "Thus, the leader of those two factions shall be present. That includes the members of the Hellsing family."
"Which means Annie's father and mother will be here as well." I concluded. I kinda can understand the bad concept of other races Vampires have, but still, what's with all the ruckus with the tiny-boobed knight and friend of mine? "So? Is there something to matter to a little family reunion?"
"You don't understand, Ichijou! In order to become the vampire King...!"
*CRACK!*
"One must prove that he or she is stronger than the current King, and therefore more suitable to lead the proud race that is the Race of the night..." We then focused on Annabelle Hellsing, who again cracked her fingers and smiled at us. However, that smile, combined with the eerie shine of her golden eyes, chilled the entire area, including my own spine. Wait, does that means what I think it means? "You're smart, aren't you, Ichijou? So you know what this will lead me. In order for me to become the next Vampire King..."
... The Current Vampire King, Nosferatu Black, must be killed by my hands!
...
...
"Just like the Klingons."
"You jus HAD to tell a joke, didn't you?!"
Oh, wait! I'm back to be the straight man!
So... Midway comedy, midway action with some slapstick. Is this maybe a foreshadowing for future events? Who knows and who doesn't? I'm actually very excited aboiut this arc, since this will focus on the development of other girls and peerages, and not just Ichijou, who showed us that everyone can be an idiot sometimes. BTW, maybe slapstick comedy isn't really my thing. Boke-and-tsukkomi is more like it.
Next chater, probably more shenanigans. Stay tuned and golden~. Nice vacations, everybody!.
