This chapter holds half of the repercussions from the last one.
I also decided to change the process up a little ... again.


As a cat, my sleeping patterns are shot to hell and I sleep for way too long. This became instantly obvious when I woke up in a dark place, a very dark place. The only thing remotely good about the situation was that I could hear people on the outside but that turned bad when I realised the interior was laced with magic circles meaning the sound was one-way and they couldn't hear me on the outside. Possibly the biggest point here would be, where I am and that is in a bag of some sort. Not a plastic one so I will take it that Rias had stuffed me in a purse of some sort, only consolation being that she had given me a ball to play with.

I had only three break-out attempts. The first was just me trying to simply break out, the second was seeing if anyone could hear me and the third being me hitting the walls to see if the people on the outside would notice. Unfortunately everything I did was for nothing. So my time was spent sitting inside of a woman's purse and I truly know how those poor chihuahuas that Paris Hilton owns. At least they could pop their heads out of the bag.

Several clunks and rapid movements later we stopped, I felt the bag getting placed down and I braced myself for the escape. I eyed the small hole of light and as it got big enough I jumped out and narrowly dodged Rias' grasp landing on the ground in front of her. I looked up at her for a split second like a skittish animal before running away and using the only senjutsuu possible while being in my cat form, the ability to phase through objects. It only seems to work on doors and walls, it's a shame it doesn't work on windows and it makes me look like an idiot.

I only had to pass through one car before finding the others, making it through into the centre of the next carriage I looked around to see who would be the safest to hide with. Out of everyone here it would be the four fallen angels at the back and only the two females would definitely keep me safe. I then decided on Kalawarnar because her breasts were bigger and made my way to safety. I clambered my way up here body and snugly fitted into place in between her breasts with my head out on look-out.

I didn't have to wait long until Rias stomped through into this carriage looking a little angry. Looking at her I decided to act scared and work, it certainly did. Even if you knew that I was faking it, you can't get past the look of a scared cat unless you are mentally broke or dead inside. That ability was my lifeline, using the feature of a cat to my advantage. When Rias left for her own carriage, I breathed a sigh of relief while making myself comfy.

One tedious train and cart ride later, we found ourselves outside the Gremory castle being greeted by the servants and a special guest. The special guest being a devil I really liked as he was genuinely innocent and above all else he surprised me. I leapt from Kalawarnar's cleavage and down onto his head sitting their proudly poking my head in front of his own.

"Hey there Mica, how are you and Granz doing?"

"Uncle Gin!"

Millicas quickly plucked me from atop his head ad squeezed hold of me, the kid was bloody strong too.

"Kid, I told you first time. She is my maid."

"But Aunty Grace likes you, doesn't she?"

"So that's where your understanding stems from. She likes me compared to others because I am a proficient ice user."

"Then why doesn't Aunty Grace like mommy?"

"Oh ... well … who is your daddy?"

"Lucifer!"

The kid replied to me happily. I would be proud to if my father was Lucifer.

"There you go kid. Lucifuge served the old Lucifer, I think your Auntie Grace is a bit of a gruff because your mommy defected to the new Lucifer."

"Will Auntie Grace always be a .. gruff?"

"Definitely, just like your mommy."

Our little conversation didn't go unnoticed and we only realised this when we felt two near identical presences behind us. My eyes started to widen as Millicas tilted his head round to see both Grayfia and Grace standing there looking rather pissed off.

"Mica, shall we run?"

"Hai, Uncle Gin."

"You gotta stop it with that."

As I jumped off of Millicas' head I transformed back into human form wearing plains clothes. Fearing the two ice devils, I quickly took a hold of Millicas and threw him on top of my shoulders before running off towards the Gremory castle.

The chasing went on for a few hours and luckily, I was able to have a tour of the castle with Millicas. For some reason, his attention was more on telling where everything was rather than the best places to go and hide. The kid, as cute as he is, was hard to fathom. His mother was a strict maid and his father was about as mentally capable as him. Because of this I had decided to not expect anything from him. As we ran through the enormous castle he made sure to show me his room, the kitchen and his tree-fort. The tree-fort was magnificent.

Due to this I built up a good relationship with the kid. I felt like I could from the off because he is still young and naive so he wouldn't really have any qualms about me plus he'd probably find my cat features adorable strictly because of his age, at that age all fluffy things are cute. Even though I didn't want to be known as cute especially by a kid, it was something to live with. With this, he had the habit of patting my head and playing with my ears as we charged through the halls.

The chase ended rather abruptly when we got cornered by maids, butlers and the Lucifuge sisters. I looked at Grace while Millicas had his gaze firmly planted on his 'loving' mother.

"Mica, what's underneath us?"

"The dining room."

That sounded good and probably safe. Utilizing my cat ability we phased through the floor and dropped straight into the dining room butt first. We landed safely on the floor while everyone else was eating. Both Lord and Lady Gremory looked at us with a wry smile at the fact that their grandson had a new friend but was getting in trouble because of it.

Seeing that we were safe and that there were two empty seats right next to each other between Rias and her mother, I took Millicas off of my shoulders before we sat ourselves down at the table.

"Tsukiyomi-san, you seem to have taken to little Millicas."

I looked up to Lady Gremory just as I finished sniffing the food on my plate like I was caught doing something bad.

"Yeah. Mica is a good kid, he is fun too."

"I love you too, Uncle Gin."

"Kid, I told you to stop that."

"But Uncle Gin ..."

Damn kids and those eyes, those wishful eyes that make you lose all your money in a toy store. The eyes that are a kin to a girl's puppy-dog eyes, similar effect but different style.

My struggle was pretty evident to everyone in the room and it came to the head's attention that they would need Millicas if they wanted my help with anything.

"What about Gin-nii? Uncle makes me sound old."

Millicas' expression sky-rocketed and he wore a very blissful smile.

"Hai Gin-nii."

I breathed a slight sigh of relief as I wouldn't have to deal with being called Uncle any more. The new problem arising is a possibility of something coming from being called 'nii'. I'll wait as I don't want to think about the possibilities.

"How is your clan faring so far, Tsukiyomi-san?"

That's a rather nosy question from Lord Gremory, one I think i'll answer. He can't gain from knowing it so why not.

"Good so far. I've got two Cerberus as guards, a number of Neko maids patrolling, Grace doing her rounds and then Old Man Hibiki and his cat-fetish. I've then got 'fake' Leviathan promoting me somewhat and that engagement to her will became common knowledge soon, and then there is the 'true' Leviathan who has taken the position of Lady and is currently dealing with clan business while i'm having fun with Mica or doing nothing of importance."

"Descendant of Leviathan, how is she?"

I sense a little fear there coming from Lord Gremory's mouth.

"Kate is doing good. Refraining from killing by doing paperwork."

That's not really true but I don't think it's wrong either. I think she is doing the amount she is as a way to take her mind off of things. The dinner table then went silent as we continued on eating our food. It seems like Katerea still isn't seen that highly or they are kinda scared that she might act out and kill some people. No skin off my back if she was to.

Halfway through the next day and I found out I was a little late. I was meant to be joining Rias and the others in the capital, Luciferd, for some meeting between the young devils. Frankly, it's just gonna be something boring and something that I don't wanna be a part of but I decided to go anyway. Even if I hate the devils, I still gotta see the ones of my generation so I can know what i'm up against and maybe even find an ally.

When I finally appeared at the venue, the staff was currently waiting for me so they could start. It seemed like I had kept everyone waiting for at least 10 minutes, also Rias had supposedly tried calling me. I was then escorted by several of the staff attendants to a central room where a number of devil signatures were residing.

All eyes were on the entrance before I even got to the room and when I did, I just smirked at them and took my place at the back of the Gremory group without even bothering to apologize. Then out from the blue, an old noble spoke out in disgust.

"This is the man that is supposed to marry Leviathan-sama?"

"You got a problem, Old man? I'd be happy to hear it while I pull out your organs."

I answer back in a truly happy tone.

"You should watch your tone, young man."

"Yeaaaah … not gonna do that."

As the other young devils turned around to look at me in confusion, I heard Rias sigh.

"Gremory-dono, would you please control your servant!"

"I'm sorry but that isn't possible."

Damn right it isn't Rias. Now that i'm here, I really am confused as to why I bothered. It's not like I care or really needed to be here, they could of just given me a summary of what transpired when they returned. I could be training, doing clan stuff or even messing around with Millicas. Hell, I could even be dealing with Tiamat right now but no, for some reason I decided to actually come here. Why?

I know who the devils are here. Gremory, Sitri, Bael, Agares, Astaroth, Glasya-labolas. I already have ties with a third of them whether I wanted it or not, that'll do me. I don't really need to be here much longer if any. What to do? I could just walk out of here casually, or make a break for it and make it a bigger deal than it is or make a clone and tell Gasper in front of me. Too many choices, they all sound kinda good.

"Gin-chan~!"

I scrunch my eyes slightly and breathe a heavy sigh as I hear Serafall's voice which effectively broke me from finalizing my plan.

"Sera?"

My almost lifeless uttering of a nickname for Serafall angered the nobles greatly. I could feel their hostility towards me, you didn't really have to be diverse in it to tell either. They weren't trying to mask it at all and Serafall didn't seem to mind it either.

"Gin-chan, if you promise to spend the night with me i'll give you special permission to leave."

That offer is very tempting and I really feel like considering it. Though I could use it but not accept it. I could run out after giving a nod but while in though so it would like I was understanding something. The nod coupled with a quick exit will make the devils here think that I was accepting in where in truth, im not.

The question is whether it would work and if Serafall would take it as that. I don't particularly want to be classed as a Tsundere by her, not by anyone in fact. I'm full of dere.

Or I could do something that just leaves them with questions … yes, that sounds good.

"Sera, are you offering me sex there?"

While asking about sex rather nonchalantly, I walked down the Gremory line and took a hold of Issei's left arm while focusing on my Ki forcing his Boosted Gear to emerge. I looked up to Serafall and saw her acting a little nervously.

"Maybe."

I clicked my tongue before bringing my other fist down into the green jewel in Issei's gauntlet breaking it, I picked out a couple shards and pocketed them before starting to leave.

"I'm good thanks Sera, i'll go ask Kate for sex instead."

Then I left, obviously not going to Katerea to have sex. I just said it to annoy her and whoever else would be annoyed by it. I calmly just waved to the devils as I walked off.


Conclusion to this chapter: Gin and Millicas are buddies.
I don't know why but i love the kid's character despite his small time in the limelight.
He is also someone Gin can manipulate to a degree plus a sidekick couldn't hurt.
I split this chapter and the next up because ... i just did. Dealing with cat in this one and dealing with kitten in the next.
The next chapter will hopefully be strictly training or talking that leads to a fight, one way or another.
Gin has a lot of time to train but doesn't want to and to help that, he has people who needs him.

Anywho, i feel like Gin may of went OOC here. Let's say it's him without hesitance ... maybe. Ciao-nya.
