Chapter 6:

Issei looked at the person he bump into. The said person was a girl with black hair styled in a short bob cut and violet eyes. He stared at for full five minutes the girl doing the same when they realised what they were doing they both blushed and without thinking twice Issei spoke. "I'm Sorry... I wasn't paying attention to my surrounding "

"I-I-It's okay... I was doing the same..." said the black hair girl.

"Issei.. Name's Issei Hyoudou ... " introduced Issei.

"Sona... My name is Sona Sitri" introduced the girl.

Issei closely examined the girl, the girl who he bump into, the one who introduced herself as Sona 'Sitri' was wearing blue strapless two piece swimsuit...

'Wait... did she say 'Sitri' ? the Sitri Clan, one of the remaining 33 Devil clans of the 72 Pillars?... Why a member of Sitri clan is here?' thought Issei, still looking at her.

When Sona cought, he was still looking at her ... She blushed but before she could say anything or he asked anything they were distracted when they heard a feminine voice from behind.

"So-tan" "So-tan..."

Sona didn't need to turn around as she knew well who was calling her and signed while Issei looked towards the source of the voice and caught teenage version of Sona without any glasses.

"Here you are So-tan... Onee-Chan was so depressed when she didn't find you... I was about to call entire guards (a army perhaps) to look for you" she said and then she looked towards the person her so-tan talking. And found a cute adorable boy with crimson hair with shining gold eyes. Before Sona could reply, she spoke again.

"Oh! My .. So-tan got a boyfriend~!" said/teased Serafall cheerfully, making Sona's face completely red.

"ONEE-SAMA! I-I-I-It's not liked that .. I j-just ... w-we just get to know each other name" said a red face Sona. Issei didn't know what to feel but nodded lastly.

"Huh ... is that so? Anyway I'm Sona's Onee-Chan... Serafall Sitri~~". Serafall said in cute childish voice. Sona just signed, knowing her onee-sama behavior. Issei found her behavior cute and thought aloud "you are kawaii Serafall-san" and blinked 'did I just said that'

Serafall had star in her eyes, finding another true fan of her. "Aww! Thank you Umm.. I didn't get your name actually " said Serafall, while having curious expressions when she ask his name.

"Because I never give any ... in fact I just introduced myself to Sona before you came... Anyway My name is Issei Hyoudou. " said or introduced Issei himself with a smile which caught Serafall off guard.

'Hyoudou?he said? Was he related to them ?' thought Serafall but before she ask anything. Another feminine voice interrupt them.

"Ise-Chan..."

"Where are you...?"

"here you are... Ise-chan" said a feminine voice.

The trio looked towards the voice and they have mix reaction.

Issei already knew who she was and how he liked her company.

Serfall stared at her in disbelief. She isn't recover from 'Hyoudou' bomb now 'she'.

'Why? She is here!? And She used a nickname for 'Issei' ... She must be close to him ? ' thought Serafall still with disbelieving eyes.

'Wow! Her power is so great! Even surpassing Onee-sama! She is like Sun... who is she? And She used an 'nickname ' for Ise-kun ... must be his Onee-sama' thought Sona, still amazed by the aura 'she' was radiating.

"Onee-chan.. Ami-Onee-Chan.. I was just talking with them... " said Issei while pointing towards Sitris.

Amaterasu just looked at them and immediately identified them. She usually hate devil but when she caught Serafall... she smiled, after all she may be devil but a different one than the most of greedy ones. 'Looks like Otōto already making friends with a Devil king'

'Onee-Chan? Did he just said that ? And to Amaterasu no less!? Hyoudous and she really close then... here I told Sirzechs many times to make a better relationship with other factions but he always said let other factions make a move first' thought Serafall.

'I knew it...! His onee-sama ... But she is powerful.. that mean Issei become powerful in future too. ' thought Sona with dreamy face.

"Greetings Lady Leviathan, Heiress Sitri" said Amaterasu in polite tone. Issei have shocked expressions on his face when his onee-Chan mentioned 'Leviathan' but remember his history teaching and devil civil war and immediately recognized Serafall as Devil King Serafall Leviathan.

"Hello~ Lady Amaterasu " greet Serafall between her childish and polite tone.

'Did she said Amaterasu? as one of top ten strongest being? And Ise-kun called her Onee-Chan? Who are you Issei?' thought Sona, looking at Amaterasu but she decided to greet her after all she is the heiress of house of Sitri and it didn't look good if she didn't greet/insult someone like Amaterasu.

"Greetings Lady Amaterasu-Sama... " greeted Sona politely.

"Ahh! A well manner girl... She must take after you Serafall " compliment Amaterasu while Serafall giggled and Sona blushed.

"What are you doing Amaterasu- San?" asked a very curious Serafall.

"A spending quality time with my little Otōto... maybe he'll add me in his harem in future" said Amaterasu while saying last part in teasing tone. Which got her immediate reaction from Issei who blushed redder than his crimson hair.

"ONEE-CHAN" exclaimed Issei in embracement.

Amaterasu just giggled. Serafall looked at them with star in her eyes. While Sona just stared at them with shocked expressions.

"Can I join too? " asked Serafall. Much to Sona embracement.

"ONEE-SAMA" this time the voice come from Sona.

And this time Serafall to giggled.

"Of course Serafall " said a very excited Amaterasu.

"Yayyie~~" replied Serafall in very childish behavior.

"ONEE-CHAN/SAMA" exclaimed Issei and Sona in unison.

This time both Serafall and Amaterasu both giggled.

"Anyway how about join us Serafall? " asked Amaterasu.

"Of course! Amaterasu-san~... we'd love to..." said Serafall, to which Sona nodded while looking at Issei. Issei just smiled.

"let's go So-Chan... you'd love to meet others " exclaimed Issei as he hold her hand run towards others, completely missing a blushing face of Sona. While Amaterasu and Serafall giggled again.

'He is holding my hand...! ' thought Sona.

"Here we are So-chan" said Issei that brought back Sona from her dreamland.

She found herself looking towards seven girls.

Issei found this awkward so he decided to introduce Sona to others since he brought her .

"Hey girls! Meet Sona.. our new friend.. and Sona meet Kurumi *while pointing towards the blonde girl* , Valine *while pointing towards the silver hair girl* , Naruki *pointed towards another blonde * , Satuski *while pointing towards the raven hair girl* , Kunou *while pointing towards the last blonde* , Tiamat *while pointing towards the deep blue hair girl and my Ophis *while pointing at mid night hair girl"

Which caught Sona completely off guard. 'Kunou as princess of Kyoto?, Tiamat the Chaos Karma Dragon? And Ophis ? As infinity Dragon God? And he said My Ophis? And he is still alive ? What is in the world going on here? And each of them radiating the aura of ultimate class? How?' thought Sona . But she decided to drop it and introduced herself.

"Hello, I'm Sona Sitri.. nice to meet you" greeted Sona with a small bow, in a pure blooded manner.

"You must be thinking about us and yes, we live together if that's you were thinking " said a very amused Tiamat .

"And if you think asking any of us joining your peerage as you mentioned yourself 'Sitri ' then WE politely declined since we are off limits!" said Valine not wanting to get Sona hope high since Sona can easily tell they are powerful... very powerful indeed. First Sona disappointed but nodded nevertheless .

"I understand.. " said Sona...

Yasaka and Luna were discussing about the whole trip and making plan for dinner when they were interrupted by third voice.

"Look who I found here Yasaka-Chan, Luna-chan" said a feminine voice which happened to be Amaterasu's.

Both of them first looked towards Amaterasu and then the girl next to her. It took a coupled of second before they recognized the Devil King.

"Yasaka-San, Luna-San... its pleasure to meet you again " greeted Serafall politely.

"Ahh Serafall-San... indeed it's a pleasure.." greeted Luna back. Yasaka nodded and asked "What are you doing here Serafall? "

"She decided to take her little sister Sona here, where her little sister bump into Issei and where I found her making friend with Issei." This replied come from Amaterasu, Serafall just nodded.

Issei name caught Luna off gaurd. She eyed Serafall and said in very threatening clam tone "if you dare to harm my cute little grandson or trying to add him in your peerage... you'll find yourself very complicated situation... devil king or not..!"

Serafall swallowed nervously while Yasaka nodded in agreement, in last few months Yasaka started to treat Issei as her own son which she never had.

"I wouldn't dare as he carry the name of Hyoudous... And if he related to you then trust me no one in devil faction going to move against him" assured Serafall. "And Sona make a friend ... other than that spoiled little princess " she muttered last part to herself, but Luna and Yasaka heard it clearly but decided to ask it later.

"Don't worry Issei make her comfortable and he has lots of friends so don't worry ... as he now is going introducing them to her so your little sister is going to make lot's of friends; And ladies it's summer break and we here to have fun ... mind if Serafall and little sister join us? I assured you she won't harm Ise-chan" said Amaterasu.

"Then ok with us... Anyway we are making special plan for dinner..!Come join us" said Yasaka with a smile and they started to plan the evening.

Serfall caught sight of Sona smiling and talking with Ice and his 'friends' , first she smiled and then froze when she looked at Ise's 'friends' . Every one of them radiating the aura of ultimate class of not higher than that of except a certain blonde princess, She paled when she saw Tiamat and Ophis together, talking with them. She knew both dragons are friends but she never see them together even seeing Infinite Dragon God and live to tell a tale that is completely unheard of.

"Is she OPHIS!?" asked Serafall with disbelief eyes. Amaterasu giggled. Yasaka signed, knowing where the upcoming conversation will go but fortunately it is Luna who replied.

"Yes... the very same..! Is it not a problem I guess... "

Serafall looked at her like she grown a second head, the very same woman who threaten her if she did anything to her grandson. Yasaka read her facial expressions and replied before anyone interrupt.

"Ophis and Ise, are, close very close, and don't worry she won't harm her mate... "

"And if you are thinking Ophis or Tiamat will harm anyone then I like disappoint you that they won't do anything like that which I " Amaterasu then looked at Luna and Yasaka, both of them nodded which brought smile on Amaterasu's face and she continue " I mean 'we' can guarantee that." replied Amaterasu with a serious face.

"And i hope this discussion will not made public " said Yasaka in tone that she won't take 'no' in answer.

Serafall just shook her head and said "No! I won't inform higher up but still Hyoudous, Kyoto, Shinto Gods, Ophis and Tiamat working together can cause an uproar in underworld, not to mention rest of their 'friends'"

"Thats my Ise's doing " said Amaterasu and giggle.

"Yes... he has an very unique way to bond people together." muttered Yasaka in low voice, looking at her daughter who was holding Ise's hand.

"Where are we going baa-Chan?" asked a very excited as he was told they were going to have special dinner. Which both Serafall and Sona joining them. Kai and simply told that Serafall is old friend of Amaterasu and she is here with her little sister for summer. Which they agreed. But Max knew who she actually is so Luna told him entire conversation so he agreed in the end with a condition of keep an close eye to her.

"Ise-Chan... its secret " replied a very amused Luna. Issei pouted while making a cute position which rest of ladies found Kawaii and fought their urge to yell KAWAII ..

Suddenly Issei got an devilish plan and smirked widely. Luna instantly caught his smirk and Warning bells went off in the Luna's mind, .

. Issei raised his arms in front of his mother with a lost-puppy look on his face. that make him too much adorable in ladies eyes. Hitomi bent down to lift Issei into her arms and placed her comfortably on his hips. Hitomi loved it when issei did that... To her, her little Issei is everything. Luna signed as she knew if Issei asked her mother now, she'll answer anything and everything.

"Mum, I'm hungry...!" Issei said with a puppy look..

"Don't worry my Sochi ... We are about to reach beach where we plan an open air dinner near the beach ... So we can admire it's beauty while having dinner. I'm 100% sure you gonna like it" said Hitomi , who was completely busy in adoring her little Sochi.. Issei placed his head on her shoulder and smiled while asking "can we have ice-cream after that kaa-chan?"

"Of course..! We can " replied Hitomi as she gave a little peak at his cheek.

Naruki , Satuski, Sona and Serafall has the surprised face. They never saw/thought, Issei will ever behave like that. Max chuckled , seeing their surprised, disbelieving, and astonished faces. "Don't worry you all just saw one of his mood swings .. Which only limited to his mother " then he looked at his grandson and said "You, my grandson, are an imp." Issei beamed. "I know"

Everyone laughed except Hitomi, who was still busy in mothering her Sochi ( Sochi means Son ).

Soon they reached a place near the beach where they found a round table with many chairs around it and two waiters around it .

"Mrs. Hyoudou, I presume?" ask one of them.

Luna came forward and said " yes gentleman, I booked today special dinner for my family and friends ... I think everything is ready or we aren't too early or late"

Second waiter nodded and said "No ma'am you are on right time and yes everything is ready ma'am"

Luna and rest of them seated .

"wow this looks like advance version of open air dinner as we added beach" said Issei, admiring the beauty around.

"I told you Sochi.. we are about to reach here and you gonna like it" said Hitomi lifting her son onto her lap.

"I love it mum.. " said Issei happily as he adjusted himself on his mother lap.

"Glad to hear" said Hitomi while stroking his hair.

"It is the first time I saw him act like that " said Naruki while looking at Issei and 'their' mother.

"Well his mood swings like that, he act like cute and adorable thing around his mother " said Kurumi with a smile.

"Wait until you see how he behave in a battle/duel/training... the amount of concentration, seriousness, focus, and determination he shows, is actually an matured adults could show. And when it comes to intelligence and battle strategic, he is a genius, a prodigy in simply language, surpassing everyone I know heck even my own mother " said Kunou. While watching interactions between a mother and a son.

Which caught Everyone attention except adults who were busy on their conversation.

"Really!?" asked a very suprised looking Satuski. Kunou nodded.

"As expected from My mate, my Ise " Ophis stated with a half smile.

"Our~" playfully corrected Tiamat.

"Mate? Wait..! You mean..." started Kunou but before she can finish Tiamat replied "BINGO... Ophis mark him already and I'm planning to do same"

Vali looking at Tiamat and then Ophis with disbelieving looks. Kunou blushed redder that put Issei's hair in shame. While rest to girls have confusing and curious face except Sona as she knew what mate means in certain races.

"Mate mean Husband or Wife . In simply language Issei and Ophis are already married in Dragonic Law." Tiamat told them bluntly when she saw confusing expressions on girls faces.

All girls except Ophis and Tiamat has jaw hanging on ground. All of them looked at Ophis to deny it but when she blushed it confirmed what they just heard is true.

When Ophis heard 'married', she blushed which confirmed what Tiamat said to rest to girls. But before any girls comment , Tiamat also added "And she is willing to share, so Issei can have an harem ... And I'm planning to join in future"

"You mean... "Kurumi started

"...We can... " continued Kunou

"...also..." continued Vali with a red face...

"...marry him...!? ..." finished Naruki and Satuski in unison.

"Of course! You all can as I already approved you all but make sure he stay away from any girl who isn't good for his health and wealth... is that clear?" Stated Ophis with an authority voice. To which every girls nodded.

"Isn't good for health and wealth? " asked Naruki with a confusing tone.

Tiamat signed and spoke "She meant any gold-digger, or any woman want him for use his power for her personal gain" Naruki eyes widened in realization.

"Don't worry..! We'll be damned if we let something happened like that " Kurumi said to make her claim.

"Yes, she is right, and don't worry ... I'll kill them myself " Ophis stated simply.

Sona who was listening the entire conversation paled at the thought of a poor girl facing warth of infinity dragon god.

Soon the dinner was over and Issei & girls went for ice cream with his mother while rest of them decided to walk around the beach.

"Arigato Kaa-Chan for the ice cream ... you're the best" beamed Issei while taking a bite to his Chocolate ice cream. Ophis also took Chocolate ice cream as she had seen her mate eating before.

While Kurumi and Kunou took strawberry , Vali, Naruto and Tiamat took orange and lastly Satuski and Sona took vanilla.

"Welcome sochi..." said Hitomi with a smile "Aww! Isn't sochi gonna share with his Kaa-chan" added Hitomi.

Issei looked at his mum and simply showing his Chocolate ice cream to his mum and spoke "here Kaa-Chan.. have a bite~" cheerfully replied Issei which Hitomi found Kawaii and that's earned him a peak on his cheek.

Issei and rest of them returning back to their rooms. Since Hyoudou already a manor their, they didn't have to book any hotel rooms their and manor was quite large so everyone got their own room.

But even after getting a separate room like their home didn't budge the girls ... they simple took a room but decided to sleep at Issei's room continuing their normal life.

.

Today's morning were special to everyone as they planned to visit Shurijo Castle, Cape Manzamo, and Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium at last . Luna also invited Serafall and Sona almost an hour early to breakfast so she can talk about today's plan with them as Amaterasu insisted to invite them in every trip.

.

Luna, Hitomi and Amaterasu were discussing about today's program with every details while Max and Kai were discussing their own stuff.

"I think kids were enjoying more that they can enjoy at SC.." stated Kai. Max nodded in agreement and said "You can say so ... not only kids but we are enjoying this too... "

"Yes.. you can say so it's been really a while we go out huh..?" asked Kai while remembering the last time he go out with his parents .

"Yes it is.. And if isn't for Issei..." stated max.

"He became life line for the family specially for his Kaa-Chan... and Luna-Chan starting to spoil him too"

"As you didn't spoiled him... you spoiled him as much as they did"

"I got only one grandson... " complained Max which to Kai just chuckled at his father ridiculous excuse.

Suddenly they were interrupted as a household servent came and said "Luna-sama, Hitomi-sama... our guest Serafall-sama and Sona-sama arrived "

"Send them in " ordered Luna.

After 2 mins they arrived at leaving room. Luna saw them coming and greeted them..

"Ahh! Serafall and little Sona-chan good morning; come seat with us we were discussing about today's program " said/ invite Luna.

Serafall nodded and seated next to Amaterasu while Sona decided to stand behind her. Amaterasu saw her and spoke with a smile "Sona-Chan why don't you go upstairs and get Issei and others, they probably awake now"

"Yes So-tan go greet Your future husband a very good morning " teased Serafall in a very low voice so only Sona could hear. Hearing it make Sona face redder than tamato. She didn't know, if she feel embracement for calling her 'So-tan' or her future husband or to greet Ise-kun morning. In the end she decided it's better to join them since she can't interfere in adults matter.

Sona standing in front of ise-kun room, still thinking how he gonna react after seeing her. She, gave her thinking a pause and KNOCK his door twice. She didn't get any reply so she KNOCK twice again.

But still she didn't get any reply so she gave a push to door and found that door was open . She knocked again but again got no reply . So she decided to enter his room. She pushed the door and door was now completely open. And a shocked face Sona standing there.

Sona knew what they were talking about yesterday night at dinner table but didn't expect to see this type of situation this earlier. She knew , she'll see this type of situation but this early?

in front of her a bed bigger than the extra king size bed, 'must be custom made' she thought. That didn't the reason of her shock. But in the bed, Issei was laying middle of the bed with the girls she met last night. Kunou on his left side while using his hand as her pillow, not to mention in her true form. On his right side Ophis was sleeping while using right hand as her pillow. At least she was glad that Ophis wasn't sleeping in her true form. She started to doubt that was she the same Ophis, she heard about and rest of girls also find a place on his bed and sleeping peacefully.

She didn't know what to feel. On the first hand She was blushing madly at what she was seeing but on the other hand She felt little bit jealousy to be left out and missed the chance to sleep with Ise-kun. She so caught on her thinking that she completely missed that Issei was starting to awake.

When Issei complete awoke, first thing he saw, was the girls around him which didn't surprise him. For him, it's normal morning with the addition of Kunou. And it also didn't surprise him a bit, since whenever Kunou came for sleepover , she chose to sleep with them.

But when he looked at the door he found Sona was standing there with her mouth open and a very shocked face. He just rub his head in confused manner at her expression and said "Good Morning So-chan... it's good to see you again" greeted Issei ,still laying on his bed, to Sona, that brought her back to her conscious.

Issei voice awoke Kunou, who was now starting to awake. Sona decided to greet him back and tried her best to hide her blushing face "A-Ano... L-Luna-sama has sent me to get you and other downstairs." said Sona while composing herself.

"Sounds like baa-Chan... " said Issei, and before he could finish his sentence Kunou voice interrupted him , who was half awake now.

"5 mins more ... Ise-koi... " mumbled Kunou and snuggled deeper into him. Now resting her head on his chest. Issei just patted on her back, completely missing the bright red face of Sona, who started to play with her finger.

"Tell baa-Chan, we'll be downstairs within half an bour" said Issei before starting to awake others.

"So we are going to visit these places today!?~~~" asked a very cheerfull devil king Leviathan.

"Of Sera! I'm sure Sona will like these places..." replied Amaterasu with a bright smile. "And Sona really gets along with each other"

"Anyway , Serafall, Issei birthday is on next month ... I'm inviting you to his birthday party. You must come with Sona-Chan... she'll like it ." invited Hitomi. Amaterasu nodded in agreement.

"Mou~ Ise-Chan birthday is on next month already? I should get a better gift for him then~~" Serafall replied in Serafall way.

"Where is Sona-chan anyway?" asked Yasaka

"Oh! I sent her upstairs to get Issei and others" answered Luna. Before She could say anything She found bright red face Sona was walking towards them.

"Hello! Sona-Chan..! where is Issei and others?" asked Luna . Hitomi, Yasaka , Amaterasu and Serafall looked at her waiting for her reply with a confused expressions for her bright red face.

"He just awoke up and said he'll downstairs with others within half an hour. " answered Sona, still with red face.

"So that's why your face is red" stated Yasaka. She knew very well about Issei's sleeping situation after all he came for sleepover at Yasaka Manor for 6-7 times a month. Hitomi, Luna, and Amaterasu caught what she was talking about. Hitomi and Luna signed and Amaterasu giggled. While Serafall asked with confused expressions "I didn't get it?"

"Well, Sera , they all sleep together " Amaterasu told her bluntly.

Serafall blinked twice before the understanding of her words hit her. "I see"

She then looked at Sona who still have little pink blush in her cheek and asked in teasing manner "Is someone jealous for not getting chance to sleep with Ise-chan"

Little pink blush turn back into reddish tamoto colour.

"Onee-sama" shouted Sona in embracement.

Soon Issei and girls join them. Issei found them on breakfast table . He greeted them morning.

"I'm presuming that you already made today's plan baa-Chan?" asked Issei seating himself on a chair across his baa-chan.

"good morning Kaa-san" said Kunou.

"Morning my little princess " said Yasaka lifting her daughter onto her lap.

Rest of girls also find their seat and adjusted themselves on their chairs.

"We decided to visit Shurijo Castle today... how's that sound" asked Luna to Issei.

"Sugoiii baa-Chan.. the 11th World Heritage Site... Shurijo Castle...!" exclaimed Issei.

"... the 11th World Heritage Site...? " asked a very curious Naruki .

"Shurijo Castle served as the proud and dignified center of Ryukyu Kingdom and its politics, foreign affairs and culture.

With architectural influences from both China and Japan, the Castle shows its exceptional cultural and historical values in its unique stonework and architectural design. Thus, Shurijo was designated as a World Heritage Site in December of 2000, the 11th World Heritage Site within Japan" surprisingly reply come from Sona. Issei just nodded to confirmed what she said.

"We are also planning to visit Cape Manzamo" informed Hitomi. Issei eyes widened at that.

"The Cape Manzamo? I always wanted to see sunset from their" said a very excited Issei.

"Is there anything special at sunset from there " asked Vali

"Indeed it is... Due to its location, Cape Manzamo is facing the open East China Sea to the West. This makes it a very popular spot on Okinawa for viewing the sunset." replied Issei.

"Then we are going to watch sunset from there" confirmed Hitomi with a smile.

LATER THAT NIGHT

Issei find himself seated in sofa while drinking orange juice.

"Did you enjoy it today, honey?" asked Hitomi while playfully rub his hair.

"Haii..! Kaa-Chan... I took lots of photos too" said Issei as he started to photos on his camera.

"Where are others, Ophis-hime?" asked Issei as only his mother and Ophis in the living room with him.

"Well your grandfather and father were booking for some event for tommorow. Yasaka, Amaterasu and Serafall went for shopping as Amaterasu caught a site of a good shopping mall nearby. As for your grandmother and rest of girls, I don't know " said Hitomi and smiled as she saw the photo of yesterday dinner in which Issei seated on her lap and she was feeding him.

"Baa-Chan and rest of girls are planning for open air dinner at our garden so they are now at garden, planning for our dinner " Ophis simply stated and got off from her chair and placed herself on Issei lap. Hitomi cooed at the cute sight. And since she has camera on her, she captured the moment on her camera.

"So how is it looks like, girls? " asked Luna as she finishes the preparation.

"Wow granny it looks amazing " exclaimed Naruki as she looked at the preparation.

"What is it called baa-Chan?" asked Kurumi as she can guess that it must be a theme dinner.

"What do you mean, Kurumi-Chan? " asked Tiamat as she raised her both eyebrows.

"Tiamat-San, Kurumi-Chan wants to know if it is a theme dinner or not? But if you ask me it's surely looks like one" answered Valine. Satuski and Kurumi nodded in agreement.

"You both are quite right dear, it is a theme dinner it's called 'Elegant Summer Dinner' " said a very amused Luna as seven years old girl caught the basic of dinner arrangment.

"Amaterasu-San I think that will be enough for today " said Yasaka in a very irritated tone, carrying 4 bags full of clothes and different fashionable items.

"Aww! Come on Yasaka-Chan I have yet to get 11th gift for Issei's birthday " replied Amaterasu with a pout. While Serafall checking the new magical outfit she got for Sona and herself.

"11th? Just how many gifts you plan to give Issei on his birthday? " asked Yasaka with disbelief look.

"That's easy to answer! Double the number of present Otōto will get on his birthday~" cheerfully replied Amaterasu. Yasaka faceplamed.

"That's a very good goal Amaterasu-Chan... " commented Serafall.

"Thank you Sera..! You're the only one who can understand me" said Amaterasu with a fake mock and hurt tone. Yasaka just rolled her eyes.

"Of course..! I'll... after all I'm a Onee-Chan too... " replied Serafall with a serious determined face. Yasaka could swear it's the first time she saw Serafall serious face. She didn't know this woman can be serious at all and a determined one no less.

'I think it's a Onee-Chan thing ' thought Yasaka as she was completely clue less at what was happening.

"So all the preparation for tommorow has been made?" asked/confirmed Max .

"Yes! Tou-San it has... you don't need to worry! Children gonna enjoy it" confirmed/ assured Kai.

"Anyway how's your sister-in-law? Did doctor say anything about her condition? " asked Max while drinking tea.

"Unfortunately no! She is still in coma. And showing no sign to recover. " said Kai and signed. Max frowned and said "Get the best doctors from the world Kai... Kurumi-chan growing up without her is not good... I know you and Hitomi-Chan will always be there for her but still... "

"I know what you want to say Tau-San... And I understand completely and it isn't for Ise-Chan... I don't know how to get Kurumi-Chan out of her depression... still now She is always close to him, fear of losing him, and be by his side as he does the same as always standing with her... like the whole summer camp issue happened at dinner table.. She stood for him there and he didn't disappointed her and did the same" said Kai with a smile, remembering the whole drama at dinner table "and don't worry..! I'm already in contact with a specialist... "

"That's good to know.. anyway Issei birthday is next month... i think we make him Heir of the House... I know he already is... what I mean is ... make it official... what do you say ? "asked Max with a serious face... he knew Kai won't disagree with him but making it official means more paperwork for Kai. Surprisingly Kai nodded and said "I was thinking the same thing, Tau-san... it's time to make it official "

Max nodded with a satisfying smile and spoke " When are we returning back to Kyoto? "

"In four days Tau-san, why?" replied Kai with a question also raised his eyebrow while saying last part.

"Aren't we going to organise a business party too? " answered Max as he raised both of his eyebrows.

Kai blinked and signed heavily, knowing too well as when they introduce Issei as Heir to the House, many things will be changed in his life.

TIME SKIP: DAY OF RETURN

"So it's a goodbye then..?" asked Sona in very low tone that only Ise heard while looking downwards. Issei looked at her for a moment before tackled her in a warm hug while whispering something in her ear that made her giggle.

Serafall looking at her baby sister with warm smile. When she planned the trip, she never thought this trip turned out this way, and she was glad that it turned out this way.

Sona giggled — much to the Serafall shock and delight who had never heard her cute little sister giggle before.

"Aww..! So-Chan.. you hurt me... do you really think it's a goodbye?... here I thought you'll still in contact with me and rest of us.. " whispered Issei with mock hurt tone. Sona giggled.

Issei broke the embrace much to her disappointment and other girls delight.

"I going to miss you all, you all were my closest best friend", said Sona sadly.'especially you Ise-kun... '

""What do you mean by 'were'..? we are still best friends and noting going to change that", spoke Kurumi.

""Here this is for your Sona-chan", said Valine as she handed a magical book 'Advance Dark Magic Of Water and Ice' . To non-supernatural beings like Issei's parents, it's like a old story book featuring Prince and Princess tail. But for a supernatural beings could see what is it actually.

"and not to forget my birthday is next month... aren't you coming So-Chan?"

"Of course ! You bet...! Anyway you didn't told me what you want on your birthday!?" asked Sona in cheerful tone, who completely acting 180 degree to her original personality much to her Onee-sama joy.

"Ahh..! You, is just fine..." Issei replied nonchalantly.

Sona blinked once, and twice, and then a third time as she processed what he had said, before her cheeks flared an alarming shade of crimson – she wasn't sure that she could go any redder than this!

"W-W-What d-did you just say? " stuttered Sona nervously, breaking the embrace.

"Ahh... You.! I want to you to come... I know as a heiress of House of Sitri ... you'll be bus..." said Issei but before he could finish, Sona evolved him in tight embrace.

"Baka.. I'll never miss it for anything, Ise-kun" said Sona as she then did something that surprised everyone especially Issei, she gave him a soft but gentle kiss on his left cheek.

When Serafall saw this she was surprise at first like the rest but that turned quickly to a smile especially when Sona moved away and Issei began to blush red from what she had done. Serafall even giggled like a schoolgirl when she saw that her baby sister was now as red as a cherry from what she had done and had her head down trying to hide it.

"It seems that Sona has a little crush on Issei"thought Serafall as she giggled again and thought how cute the two would be if they got together.

Ophis looked suprised for a moment then cover it with perfect emotionless mask.

Tiamat have a mischievous smile.

Kurumi and Kunou were now glaring daggers at them.

Naruki was now completely blushing mess.

Valine and Satuski were trying so hard to compose themselves but still a little pink blush could be seen on their faces .

Adults were equally surprise but then smiled.

After that Issei and the other started to walk away as they did the Serafall and Sona waved goodbye to them.

Serafall suddenly turned her head slightly and spoke to her little sister "should I start planning the wedding".

"ONEE-SAMA" cried an embarrass Sona as her Onee-sama laughed at the young girl's bright red face.

IT'S BEEN AWHILE! :D
