Chapter Ten: Mizuki, Minami, and a Bath


Once he escaped Death's grasp, Keima woke up in a studio-sized room, with a few futons lying around. He scanned the area, identifying Yuuji Sakamoto, Hideyoshi Kinoshita, and Kouta Tsuchiya. Once Kouta noticed Keima wake up, he gathered the rest into a circle. Yuuji came out of curiosity, while Hideyoshi came for business.

"Do you want to know what happened after you fainted?" asked Hideyoshi, glancing at Keima. He shook his head.

"Let's just skip to the topic," said Keima, pulling out his handheld console. It looked fine, though it could use a little polishing. Then he noticed Kouta extending his hand. Sighing at the prospect, Keima brought out an eroge (Erotic Game) and placed it in Voyeur's hand.

"Wait, why are Yuuji and Hideyoshi here?" asked Keima. He would like it if the conversation were to remain confidential.

"Hideyoshi was blackmailed by the same person," said Kouta, looking at the bishounen. His gaze then landed on Yuuji. "I have no idea to why he's here."

"What? Can't a guy help his friends?"

"Says the guy who threw his supposed 'friend' into a warzone," snapped Keima. He didn't want the information to potentially leak out.

"W-Whatever," said Yuuji, turning his head away. Category: Tsundere. Wait, did Keima just classify a guy!? Gross. It was probably due to the aftereffects of Chihiro and Yui's Conquest.

"...Anyway, the blackmailer is a girl." Gotcha! Miharu definitely fell under the "female" category, whether Keima liked it or not. He hoped the next piece of info had "Orange hair", or "Likes flat chested women".

"She also has a unique burn mark on her butt," said Kouta. Hideyoshi sighed. Of course that's what Voyeur would look out for. "Yeah, that's all I got."

Keima sighed. He wasn't going to get anywhere with only this much information. "First, we have to come up with a prime suspect."

"How about Aiko Kudou?" said Hideyoshi. "She's as good as Voyeur with technology."

"But she doesn't have a definite motive," countered Keima. He brought out his PFP, and started to play. "It's Miharu Shimizu. She has a motive, and she has 'contacts', so she could easily get some dirt on us."

"Even if we assume that Miharu's the culprit," said Yuuji, sounding a little too skeptical, "How are we supposed to confirm it? Go into the Girl's Bath?" Keima smirked. He had a crazy plan up his sleeve.

"Obviously," said Keima, hitting the send button on his PFP. After a split second, Elsie entered the room, holding up... air. Well, it looked like air to everyone besides Keima and Elsie. "The rest of the girls are taking a bath, right Elsie?"

"Yes Kami-sama," said Elsie, the other three still shocked at both her sudden appearance, and at the word "Kami-sama". Keima looked at the time chart again. He had around twenty minutes to complete the mission, maybe twenty five if you count the amount of time it takes to get changed. "You're going into the girl's bath? It's kinda like Ayumi's second Capture, when you stole her panti- mph!"

Keima stopped her before she could get anything else out. This piqued the others' curiosity even more. Panti- sounded a lot like panty in the minds of the feminine boy, the lazy genius, and the perverted ninja. Keima whisked the brochure out of Hideyoshi's hands, shaking the three out of their reverie. The brunette leaned towards the baka, whispering into her ear.

"Ah... okay, I'll do it!" said Elsie, flying off to where the bath was located. Keima picked up the Robe, and covered himself in it, making him invisible. He could only hope Elsie would do her job.


Elsie, stark naked, approached Haqua. Who was also nude. They were both in the bathroom, and it has been around two minutes since she's been told the plan.

"Haqua!" said Elsie. "Can I talk to you? In private?" Haqua shuffled over to the li'l devil. Elsie took a look around, making sure that no one could listen in on their conversation. Just to make sure, she made Haqua soundproof everything in a one meter radius with her Celestial Robe. "Keima's going to come into the Girl's Bath using my Robe!"

"What!? We've got to stop that pervert!" exclaimed Haqua, misunderstanding the whole situation. She extended her hand, a scythe flying into her outstretched arm. Before she could take a step forward, Elsie went in front of her, flailing her arms like a madman.

"No, it's for the Conquest!" said Elsie. Instead of heeding her words, she nudged the dimwitted devil aside, put on her uniform swiftly, and raced out the door, sickle in hand. Elsie, who was about to chase after the Valedictorian, was stopped by a hand on her shoulder. Shrieking a short little shriek out of shock, Elsie turned around, revealing Keima Katsuragi. "K-Kami Nii-sama!?" She looked up, looking at an air vent without a cover.

"I knew you'd mess it up, but it still amazes me. Nevertheless, I planned ahead," said Keima, shaking his head at the display. He then composed himself, brandishing the PFP in his hand. He pressed a new button on it, making a small camera pop up a little to the left of the L button. He then rubbed the console against his cheek. "Ah, I love you modified PFP! Though I never knew the camera mod would come in handy..."

He pranced around the bathhouse, staring at female butts. Elsie wondered if Haqua was right after all. Then, he approached Miharu Shimizu. He grabbed onto her towel with his right hand and pulled down. Instantly, Miharu's backside was exposed to all. Keima took a few pictures, making sure both Miharu's face and burn mark were in the frame.

"Elsie, get two Detention Bottles ready." Then, he flipped the camera shut, and walked up to Mizuki. Dragging her into an empty stall, Keima removed the disguise.

"A-Akihisa-kun!?" exclaimed Mizuki, flustered. She would've gone on a diet if she had known that Akihisa was going to peek at her wet, almost nude body. The only things separating Keima and the pink-ette were the boy's clothes and the girl's towel. "What're you doi- mph!"

"Please, just hear me out. I'm not here just to see your body," said Keima, his finger on her lips. All Mizuki could think of was how close Keima was to her. The close proximity was killing her. "I have something to tell you."

"I-I love you!" said Keima, swooping in for a kiss. Instantly, the Spirit was booted out of the buxom lady. He could only hope that Elsie was able to catch the runaway. Without another word, Keima turned invisible, and left the busty lady blushing. He scanned the crowd, till he found who he was looking for. He grabbed Minami by the hair, and reeled her into a different cubicle. He turned visible, but it only served to agitate the woman.

"Aki, you better have a good reason, or so help me..."

"I just need to tell you something!" said Keima, his hands enveloping Minami's. All of a sudden, it got a lot warmer in the little stall. Minami tried backing up, only to meet the cold tiles of the shower. Keima zoned in. "I-I love you!"

Yet another Spirit was evacuated. Yet another Spirit was caught. Keima sighed in relief. The whole fiasco was almost over. Now all he had to do now was bring the blackmailer to justice.


If you want to leave a review, but don't know what to say besides "Update!", here are a few questions to answer:

a.) Anyone out of character?

b.) Was the Conquest satisfying, or was it too simple?

c.) Who would be the next Capture target if you were to choose?

d.) Any more suggestions?

Anyway, please thank my Beta Reader, Random, review, and I'll see you later!
