Chapter 5: CHAPTER - 5 - S.O
Day of Issei's First Date
Haru's POV
It was around 10 in the morning, I had arrived about 15 minutes before Issei's date with Yuuma was supposed to begin, over the past week I had seen Issei strutting around with his new girlfriend like he was on cloud nine.
He even showed her off to Matsuda and Motohama.
The look on their faces was priceless, though I nearly blew my cover in the process from struggling to keep my laughter from leaking out.
Eventually Yuuma asked Issei to go on a date with her this weekend, of course the pervert agreed and was even wearing new clothes he bought specifically for today.
Of course I had transformed myself into a thirteen year old boy and was watching them from the shade of a nearby convenience store.
I was drinking a bottle of soda since the heat was worse than usual today, along with a hat to keep the sun off me.
Originally I was going to follow them along on their date but decided to leave that part to a shadow clone and only come around until just before sunset, while I try asking around the city again for Mr. O.S.
"Seriously, I'm starting to think he did this on purpose or something" as I started to question whether this person even lived here, with only initials and his handwriting to go off on, clues about this mysterious benefactor who let me stay were scarce.
"If I don't find something soon I'll have no choice but to give up on it" as I looked at the system's interface.
[First Hunt: Mission Requirements: Track down the Sender]
[Requirement for mission success: Head to Kuoh and uncover the identity of your unknown benefactor]
[Failure: -4000 system points and sealing of Ninjutsu for 2 months]
[Rewards: 1500 system points]
[Time Limit:2 Days]
[This mission is forcibly accepted, cannot be refused or given up]
The Naruto System gave me this mission soon after I read that letter.
Most of the missions the System gave me during my three year isolation were not as ruthless since it seemed to take into consideration my situation.
Yet when it comes to things like this happening, the System once again showed me how ruthless and black-hearted it can be.
Since I didn't realize that someone was watching me for THREE. WHOLE. YEARS. during my stay already speaks volumes about that person's strength and abilities. But that still doesn't excuse me from not even noticing something.
So this mission was a way for me to redeem myself and to actually have a chance to use my information gathering abilities to track him/her down.
I may or may not be able to fight him/her, but it couldn't hurt to at least know who the hell it was, I think I deserve that right at least.
Now though the deadline was fast approaching, I also looked at how many system points I have left.
[System Points: 6580]
I didn't have much left after my most recent purchases, so if I failed this mission I would be deep in the red for quite a while.
But the real kick to the balls was that I'd have all my Ninjutsu sealed for two months.
That was the more pressing issue for two reasons:
1) Having it sealed off for two months would mean that I would be able to missing out on April and May, when Volumes 1 and 2 take place.
2)It also means that I would have a significant portion of my strength sealed away during life and death situations, I've said this before but I can't afford to die.
I'd be missing out on so many things as I would have to force to hide until the seal was released, and if I've known Gaia as well as I think I do since coming here she probably won't just let me sit on the sidelines contently after coming here.
{A.N: Gaia= the World, Fate, Karma, the Heavens, or the invisible force known to move the plot forward}
Then there's the issue of Issei.
A mission didn't pop up from the Naruto System to protect him, this was something I decided to do on my own, even if I knew that Issei wouldn't die, it still didn't feel right with me.
If I could spare him the pain of being impaled by Raynare's spear of light, then I will.
After closing the interface I turned my attention back to Issei.
..
...
...
Before long I saw a girl approaching Issei and she handed him a flyer of some sort.
"That's definitely Rias's familiar, I gotta say the anime did a really good job of portraying all of them" as I looked at her the show really did do an amazing job of portraying the characters, though that was before season four came in and ruined it by making them look closer to their light novels counterparts, though that's just my opinion.
In my old world there was a division in the fan-base about that change to the art style, but that's not what's important right now.
After giving Issei the flyer the bat girl immediately disappeared and Yuuma appeared shortly after.
Then they began walking off on their date, Immediately I went into a back alley and created a shadow clone and ordered it to follow them around but to keep some distance so as to not be discovered.
After that I went ahead and dispelled my transformation and soon began walking around asking anyone I came across for my strange benefactor.
Sunset
Park
3rd person POV
The park was surprisingly quiet, not a single person in sight.
With the sunset as the background this would have made the perfect spot to end Issei's first date.
Unfortunately, that won't be the case.
Yuuma walked up in front of the fountain before turning around to look at Issei.
"Hey Issei, can I ask you a question?" she asked as she held her arms behind her back.
"Hm?" he looked on with a look of confusion
"In honor of our first date, there's something I'd like for you to do, to commemorate this special moment" as she inched closer and closer to him before looking down.
Issei looked like his heart was about to pound right out of his chest "sure, you can ask me for anything at all" he replied while blushing.
As she lifted her head-
...
...
...
"Would you die for me?"
"... Huh?" as the pervert's face froze stiff.
He asked her to repeat what she said.
She leaned in to his ear and whispered "I want you to die for me" with a lower pitched voice.
The next thing that happened to him, shocking would be putting it mildly.
Her clothes were shredded, growing taller and with a much more mature appearance along with her eyes looking more sinister than anything. Her clothing now changed to what looked like black straps made of leather around and under her breasts. A thong like piece in place of her underwear held in place by three thin straps.
There were also black latex gloves that ran up to her arms with small lengths of chains hanging from them, shoulder pads with three large spikes on the right shoulder, and black thigh-high heel boots.
Though that wasn't the most surprising thing of all.
From her back, two black feathered wings sprouted, with a few of them falling slowly to the ground, with Issei following suit as he looked at his girlfriend.
This was Yuuma Amano's true form:
Raynare
Fallen Angel and Devoted Azazel Fanatic
"Well I have to admit, I did have some fun today, considering how naive and childish you are things could have been much worse" as she held up her arm to look at the purple scrunchie, Issei had gifted it to her while they were out shopping .
"Thanks a lot for the gift too, very sweet, but even so" as she spoke her arm flashed as what appeared to be a spear appearing in her hands.
"It's time to die, to be honest you were far too great a risk to us, I had no choice but to dispose of you, if you're looking for someone to blame then blame God for giving you that Sacred Gear!" as she lifted her spear to stab Issei in the stomach...
DING!
Though instead in front of her was a cloaked figure holding a single sword, blocking what would have been a fatal blow to Issei.
The person was wearing a long black coat with red cloud patterns imprinted on it, there was also a white mask with a purple tint that covers the entire upper half of his head. It had a ripple pattern with three tomoe around the center, two of which were the mask's eye-holes.
"What?" as Raynare was still in shock the cloaked individual pushed back forcing Raynare to take a slight distance away.
"Who the hell are you? How dare you interrupt my fun" as she glared in hatred at the interloper.
Though the cloaked figure didn't even seem like he heard her and instead turned around and looked at Issei "You better start running boy, unless you want to wind up dead for nothing" spoke the cloaked figure, the voice sounded like an adult, though it sounded much deeper and ominous.
"I-I…" as Issei tried to speak but his legs couldn't stop shaking, he was in too much shock from all the things that were happening in front of him to even have the strength.
"If you wish to live to see your friends and loved ones again, then you had better run like your life depends on it, NOW GO!" as he screamed his eyes changed to a blood red color with three tomoe in each eye.
"Y-Y-YES SIR!" as he saw it his fear for Raynare was overwritten by the cloaked figure as he immediately got up and ran as fast as his legs could carry him.
As the masked figure saw him off he couldn't help but have a smile appear under his mask, though no one could see it, then his eyes returned to normal.
The masked figure was obviously Haru, he was wearing the traditional clothing of the Akatsuki and wearing Obito's mask from the Fourth Great Ninja War.
He didn't want to let Raynare or Issei knows his face just yet, so for now he chose to disguise himself by using the Transformation Jutsu and transformed into Obito when he was masquerading as Madara Uchiha, that way no one would suspect it was Haru.
"You're not getting away" as she formed another spear in her hand she was planning to throw it at Issei.
Haru immediately went into action as he appeared instantly in front of Raynare and swung his sword down, she was forced to stop her attack and blocked it with her spear.
"How dare a weak human like you continues to get in my way, don't you know what you've done?"
"Simple, I prevented you from killing an innocent boy"
"He's no innocent, he's a threat to this world"
"So says the killer trying to stab him, pot calling the kettle black"
"How can a weak human like you understand an angels duty!"
"If angels like you exist, then this world is beyond salvation" as Haru finished they both separated and were a slight distance apart from each other.
"Enough of this, wasting my time arguing with a human like you is a disgrace, just die" as she soon began creating multiple spears of light.
Haru was quickly forming hand seals so quickly he left afterimages.
After three years of practice he was now capable of forming 4 hand seals a second, though he wasn't skilled enough to perform one handed signs anytime soon.
"Fire Style- Fireball Jutsu" as he finished he breathed a huge ball sending it towards her.
A look of shock appeared on Raynare's face for a moment before quickly dodging it and throwing another spear at Haru.
Leaping back to avoid it, with his back against the tree he saw Raynare smiling, like she had cornered her prey and throwing another spear directly at him the moment he landed, leaving no chance to escape.
PUCHI!
The sound of the spear piercing Haru's chest was heard.
"Hahahahaha, that's what you get for messing with an angel like myself, you worthless human!" as she smiled sadistically.
PENG!
CLACK!
A puff of smoke appeared for a moment, before dispersing and revealed instead a piece of wood appeared with the spear of light stuck in the middle of it
"What?" as Raynare was caught off guard, her instincts told her to turn around, she created a sword of light, as she clashed with a sword just inches away from her neck.
Haru had used the Substitution Jutsu to avoid Raynare's last attack and used it as a way to lower her guard and get in close for a finishing blow.
"I should have figured her instincts were good, given the differences in experience" as he knew that Raynare only lost to Iseei who was so pathetically weak was because he got the drop on her, she looked down on humans and that mistake cost proved to be fatal.
As despite appearances Raynare is a Fallen Angel who's probably lived longer than what the series let on.
Though Haru wasn't worried, he knew that he could still win, as her instincts were the only thing keeping her in this fight.
They both were locked in a clash trying to overpower the other, but neither one of them were giving an inch.
"You say that boy's a danger to you, but I doubt a kid like that would be worth so much trouble, so the guy who ordered it must be a complete fool to target a pervert" as he said it in a condescending tone.
"You shut your mouth, Lord Azazel is the greatest, most wonderful person ever, a human like you could never understand someone as amazing as him" her eyes suddenly turned more viscous.
"Wonderful, now we've got a fangirl, what kind of mess did I get myself entangled into.." as he went and planted his foot deep in Raynare's stomach "...this time?", as she coughed up a bit of blood before the force sent her back into a tree.
"Wind Style- Vacuum Bullets" after forming the hand seals, Haru took in a deep breath and exhaled several small blasts of wind chakra, scattering them in different directions.
Some of them pierced through the stonework and trees, though most of them were sent straight towards her.
Seeing the rapidly approaching projectiles, Raynare quickly brought her wings in front of her just as the Vacuum Bullets reached her.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
As dust littered the area Haru didn't drop his guard, he knew Raynare wasn't down for the count.
Soon a figure leaped out from the dust, revealing Raynare, though she had several cuts on her arms and legs with blood slightly dripping from them.
As she held herself in the air you could see holes in her wings, which had taken the front of the blow for her.
"Damn you human, this isn't over, I swear I will make you regret having made an enemy out of me"
"Trust me, you don't want to run into to me again, but if you even think of going after that boy again, it will result in your Permanent. End."
Raynare didn't reply but bit her lip with such force it was bleeding from the side, before quickly disappearing into the distance leaving nothing but tattered feathers on the ground.
As she left he could tell that the atmosphere had changed, most likely she removed the barrier keeping ordinary people away from this place.
He bent down and picked up one of the feathers "I think that went well for our first meeting, I didn't injure her too badly, I knew she would be a bitch but I didn't think she would be this bad" as he thought back on the kind of person Raynare is, just someone who wanted to satisfy her superiors more than anything, it's what gave her life meaning, though that blind devotion is what also led her to assume Azazel wanted Issei dead.
They think that what they're doing is right and that others opinion don't matter, they wind up ignoring everything around them and only focus on the task in front of them, as a result, they become short-sighted and die early on.
People like her don't change so easily.
If she keeps going on this path it will get her killed
The only one who can probably change her fate right now… is Haru.
"You may be a bitch right now Raynare, but it would be a total waste if you just died, you will thank me for this one day, even if you hate me to the core for now" as he resolved himself to save her.
…
…
"But damn is she drop dead gorgeous…"
...
...
...
Haru's true reasons come to light.
The Following Day
Afternoon
Restaurant
Haru's POV
After dealing with Raynare I went to check on Issei and could tell he was still freaking out about yesterday, especially since no one at school seems to remember Raynare.
She probably erased their memories at some point after their fight, now that Issei isn't scarred emotionally (at least not as bad as when Raynare killed him) I can leave the rest to Rias, as she's probably surprised to see Issei the next morning completely fine instead of being summoned near death.
She'll probably invite him to join her peerage, or if he gets killed by Dohnaseek later on then she'll just turn him into a devil, though she'll probably asked what happened last night.
"In any case I have more important matters to take care of" as he looked at the letter in his hand.
"Sigh~, no luck again today, at this rate I'll never find him/her" as I laid my head on a table in defeat, I had failed once again to find my mysterious benefactor, not to say that there weren't a couple of leads before but they were all dead ends.
After trying frantically for the past couple of hours I was getting hungry so I stopped by a small open door restaurant, ordered a couple of dishes and a food pill (since I didn't want to be embarrassed for eating so much in public) and was left with but a soda left to drink and the bill.
As for how I managed to get the cash to pay for all this?
Let's just say that the news of several corrupt officials going mysteriously bankrupt made one last noble contribution to society before being hauled off to court.
...
...
Anyway,
I know that whoever this person is isn't necessarily my enemy but I also can't say for sure that he's my ally either.
Until I can figure out his objective or if the worst does happen I'll at least give my gratitude to him/her then deal with the rest later, otherwise I'll always have this uneasy feeling in my heart.
"DAMN IT, I wish I could just get this over with" as I groaned in defeat and looked at the deadline getting closer and closer by the minute...
"Woahhh"
"Check those two out"
"I wish I could have a body like them"
"They look like models"
As I had my face down I began to hear people screaming and talking amidst themselves.
"A thousand Yen I bet it's them" as he kept his head down on the table
"Seems like you're having a bad day Haru" as he heard a familiar voice.
"Ufufufu, I think that's an understatement Rias" he also heard a familiar giggle.
"I win" as I slowly lifted my head to see two familiar faces.
It was Rias and Akeno, after not seeing their faces for nearly a week I swear they have gotten even more beautiful than before.
"Wait, now's not the time for that Haru" as he scolded himself for easily losing focus.
He's supposed to be a ninja, not Jiraiya.
"Yeah, you could say that again, but it's nice to see some familiar faces, at least something good happened today" as he smiled at them, before laughing together with him.
After a moment of silence "Um, if it's alright with you, can we talk a little more in private?" asked Rias with her usual smile.
As I looked around I could already see a crowd staring at us and I hear the people around us whispering some very rude things that I won't get into right now, to be honest I don't care what they say but I agreed nonetheless, I told them to wait a moment while going to pay my bill upfront.
Karaoke
Private Booth
After entering we were finally able to get some peace and quiet, everywhere we walked by Rias and Akeno were the center of attention, everyone had their eyes on them either entranced by their beauty or the guys on the street were cursing me and my luck to be with two women as beautiful as them, but I simply tuned them out as they were just jealous it wasn't them.
"I apologize for the trouble we've caused, this always happens no matter where we go" Rias was of course the first to apologize though I told her it was no big deal.
We ordered some drinks and chatted for a little while, though I could tell she and Akeno were enjoying this quite a bit, when I asked she said that they don't get many opportunities to be able to relax like this.
When I asked the reason they explained that it was because people in her school treat them both as celebrities, whether when they go out or at school it made no difference, so to be able to talk and laugh like normal like this is quite a rare treat outside of the club they told me they were apart of.
Though to be honest, I wasn't exactly what you would call a social butterfly when it comes to talking with members of the opposite sex.
Yet here I am, talking with Rias Gremory and Akeno Himejima, who until a little over a week ago were nothing more than characters from a light novel to me.
Normally, I'd have been much more withdrawn and would have probably taken a backseat when talking to girls, yet it might be because they were at least people I was familiar with despite not having ever met in person that I was able to hold a somewhat decent conversation with I already knew so much about them I had been able to understand since I already know their circumstances, but in the case of the human world at least no one knows who you really are.
"Maybe I'm putting too much thought into it?" as I receded deeper and deeper...
Rias looked at me seemingly lost in thought, she put down her drink "Haru, there was something I've been meaning to ask you for a while now" she called out to me.
As if I had suddenly come back to reality by her voice, I immediately raised my head and tried not to stare at her breasts which is much harder than you think when they're that size "sorry, was lost in thought was all. Please, go ahead and ask away" as I scratched the back of my head and apologized.
"It's about this person you're looking for, have any luck so far?" as she asked she folded her hands under her breasts with her legs crossed, as if she's trying to make it even harder.I shook my head while trying to clear my head and focus "no, not a single lead yet, I've been asking everywhere in town, no one seems to know anything, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack" as my good mood was ruined because of that person and reminded of the deadline.
Seeing that Rias had a look in her eyes as she stretched out her hand "That letter, assuming you still have it with you, would it be alright if I had a look?"
As I thought for a moment, there wasn't much harm in just letting her look, since I haven't found anything so far I might as well let her take a crack at it.
Instead of answering I reached out for my back pocket, bringing out a folded piece of paper, I unfolded the letter and hand it over to her.
Akeno scooted over to Rias's side so she could read it too.
Not even a few seconds past before
"THIS IS?" as she called out in surprise her eyes also suddenly became sharp and seemed to be in thought, Akeno on the other hand had one hand covering her mouth, while her eyes widened in sudden realization and... understanding?
Seeing their reactions I thought "What the hell? So they do recognize it?" as I waited with baited breath for them to finish reading.
This might be the first solid lead I have since I got here.
"Maybe I should have sought them out first instead of avoiding them?" as I thought that I had been going about this all wrong from the start and should have probably also looked at it from a supernatural standpoint.
Then again, I was gone for months at a time, so I probably wouldn't have noticed anything strange.
Since I also didn't know anyone besides the main characters connected to the supernatural, I would have probably struggled to find someone else in such a short period of time. Their are just too many variables.
As she put down the letter she slowly regained her composure, though there was still a blush on her face "Forgive me, I let my emotions get the better of me"
Akeno seemed to have a mischievous smile on her face, like she found something amusing
"That's no problem, but you do recognize the writing right?" as I leaned forward, hoping she could shed some light on this.
"Yes, as a matter fact I know the person who wrote this"
"Really? That's fantastic, so who is it?" as she said in my mind I was jumping for joy, looks like I'll be able to finish the mission in time.
"Before I do, do you mind explaining what happened?" as she looked down at the paper on the table after having read its contents, she seemed curious as to what happened.
"Sure, I suppose there's no harm in telling you" as I agreed I told them the story of how I suddenly ended up in the middle of nowhere in that sea of trees, luckily finding the cabin, and had stayed there for a bit while trying to find my way out, then one day that letter showed up and the map that lead me all the way here. Though I made sure not to mention about me being from another world, shinobis, and other parts just yet.
"So afterwards I came here to give my thanks to that person, if I hadn't run into that cabin when I did then I might not have made it out of there at all. Though I don't know why he wouldn't have shown up in person and instead had me come all the way out here?"
Rias and Akeno looked at each other before they smiled and... laughing?
"That's definitely Souji for you" "Indeed, it wouldn't be him otherwise"
Being left out in the dark didn't sit right with me, cutting their fit short I called out "Okay, mind filling me in here please?" as I looked at them I couldn't help but feel I've heard that name somewhere before.
"Right, the one who actually wrote this letter is actually a kni... friend of my father's, his name is Souji Okita" as Rias finished it felt like everything connected.
"I see, so his name's Souji..."
Internally
"HOLY SHIT, THE SOUJI OKITA! The captain of the first unit of Shinsengumi and SIRZECHS KNIGHT!" as my mind was suddenly thinking back on his story. I do remember him taking Kiba to a remote cabin in the mountains as child, where he first began to teach Kiba swordsmanship.
...
...
...So, it turns out I was living in his home for the past three years, they never explicitly stated in the light novels where the place was actually located so there was no way to tell.
...
Seriously,out of all the places on this alternate Earth for me to land, I wind up in a samurai's backyard.
Mind… Blown!
"My god! Gaia is definitely out to get me involved'' as cold sweat formed on my forehead at how twisted fate can be.
After taken a moment to process all that internally I asked her "Do you know where he lives then?" as I hoped to finally get this over with.
Rias had to disappoint me as she shakes her head in response "he doesn't actually live here in this city, sometimes he comes to visit but other than that he doesn't show up"
Reality came crashing down again as I unfortunately remember the guy's personality, dropping my shoulders " Seriously?" in response
"Seriously!" without missing a beat she replies right away.
In response I leaned back "Great, now I'm right back where I started" as I closed my eyes "That much was obvious, even if I know who he is and be able to complete the mission on time, I won't even have a chance to give him my thanks"
As if realizing my dilemma "If you'd like however…" as I heard her speak she continues "I'm willing to give him a message for you, it'd be no trouble at all"
"Really?" as I lift myself out of my seat with hope once again lit in my expression.
"But of course, I feel at least partially responsible for having you travel all the way out here only to leave empty handed" as she smiled like usual, which was always charming.
"Please don't think like that, it was my choice in the end to come here, so please don't think of it like that, compared to what Mr Okita did for me it's just something trivial" as I spoke honestly, if it wasn't for finding that cabin I would have had to sleep like Ren Tianyou did, and that was something I really didn't want to even imagine.
Ding!
[Congratulations to Host for completing Main Mission 'First Hunt']
[Host is awarded 1500 system points]
As I heard the system's monotone voice, I felt an enormous weight I didn't realize Ii had lift from my shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief, mostly because I was able to complete the mission before things could have turned for the worst.
After that we agreed I would write him a letter of thanks and she would send it to as soon as possible, perhaps even getting him to come here in person.
Though I feel as if I would want to at least want to nail him once for dragging me all the way out here and not even being here, something that surprisingly both Rias and Akeno agreed on.
After finally laying down that issue to rest "Now then, Haru, there's something else I would like to ask you if that's alright with you?"
"Sure, it's the least I can do after all, ask away?"
"Alright… Haru Uchiha, who are you?" as she asked her tone turned serious and I could tell the room felt like the air was getting heavier.
"As expected of the Gremory heiress, being raised by a noble family really adds to the realism" as he smiled internally, but shows no change in his outward appearance.
"What do you mean Rias? You're going to have to be more specific." as I asked with a questioning look.
"I've already had you looked up, there are no known records of a person named Haru Uchiha, whether it be past or present as well as both nationally and internationally" as she did her eyes narrowed, as if trying to pierce straight through me.
Though before I could respond she cut me off.
"On top of that, one of my underclassman was attacked the other day, however, he was mysteriously saved by a masked figure, according to him the suspect had… scarlet eyes, with a very similar pattern we had seen only once previously" as she continued listing off how I was watching said person (a.k.a. Issei) from one of her underclassmen and how I was only one that matched the description despite the seemingly different voice I used.
"So I'll ask one more time Haru... and please be honest with me, who are you?" as her voice was laced with much more seriousness tone than probably most would think to come out of the mouth of a high school student.
As for me?
I leaned back into the sofa I had my eyes closed for a moment "As expected, she didn't waste any time putting two and two together, now then, how should I go about this?" as a million different things swam through my head.
"Though I wish I had more time, it seems like Gaia won't let me have my way"
A minute goes by with Rias and Akeno still waiting for my response.
Suddenly, I leaned forward and opened my eyes, revealing the Sharingan to them once more.
"That's!"
"!"
Both of them turned wide eyed seeing it happen once again, though they seem to be more fascinated rather than afraid, like it's pulling them in.
"Hopefully that's just my imagination" as I continued with my plan.
"I should be asking you two the same thing"
"And by that you mean?..." asked Akeno with a look of confusion.
"My eyes can tell there was something different about you two, your energies are completely different from humans, that much is certain. Though that boy I saved was human, that girl claiming to be an angel was definitely not normal"
"You really have no idea?" asked Rias as she raised her voice as if doubting my answer
"Honestly, I've been trying to wrap my head around all this crazy stuff that's been going on in this town" as I put on a look of utter confusion.
"So if you two know something mind filling me in? Cause there's nothing I hate more than being kept in the dark" as I knew hypocrisy was calling my name.
Both of them looked at each other for a moment before nodding their heads in agreement before looking back at me.
The tension in the air immediatly receded and Rias put on her usual smile "I'm sorry, I was just cautious of you because we believed you would become a threat" as she offered her apology.
"A threat? To who?" as I let myself breathe a sigh of relief for my skills as a ninja to deceive others had worked, before focusing on Rias's next words.
"Tell me, how much do you know about mythology?" as she had an excited look on her face as if she's dying to tell me.
This, was truly the beginning of my adventures in this world.
