ONE WEEK LATER
POV
As it had been a whole week since the incident of the church and Asia and then life went on like normal as it was not problem to begin with has jaune and the rest as things have not changed at all and everything just then started to go in the flow again as everyone's just wants to school like normal and then with Asia just as started with goings to school and with Issei and Kiba helping her out with Koneko fellowed her around time by time to check on her and then for rias she was just happy that she just had received a good person in her very group now and with two new secret gears holder and then being two amongst the 13 longinus and that is good for her and then for jaune well he was on very journey of his own and a great and brave journey and as he's was hunting for house and luckily he was very much successful as after investigating this town and it very different place's he found a perfect home It is a house not just some small house like issei or his very own apartments no this is a big house like Traditional Japanese house and it's had it's own garden and just as everything now and it's own big drive thru that's he can fit and store or works on his vehicle's in the future as then it is far from school and many of the stores as then the neighbours hood themselves like nice's and then it is one problem and benefit it's was completely as abandone by it's owner and then place needs a lot of repair from the roof and from the floor and as many others places now but that is something that he's just can't afford and handle now as he then expected and intended to investigate place and owner and just has everything's that was lighted related now and then he did contact them and then they told him everything's about the property history and as then exactly explain him that this just belonged to very important family as back in the day and then sometimes age and the very family decide to decision and a leave this place then.
As jaune looking around the property as it's very sign board it said house number twelve and street number five as it was still quite nice and far from everywheres he can see as there are House's nearby but there are just several houses far from eachother now and then his new house was location was here but no It was, to put it lightly broke place as he started to look over the very garden was overgrown and jungle-like grass and weed-ridden as plots that had long since killed off any rival plants with their presence and then door was just different story entirely as it was still like new and very strong and it look like expensive but battered and old, with the number two missing on the front door and as the remaining number one bronzed and old lookings, but just again it was solid double door and the house was very big from the outside as it's has three stories as well jaune is mistaken with a bigger garage as well with a basement and then he saw the front gate door was locked but damaged hanging on its hinges like it was moments away from joining as it's fellow number door and falling off at the moment and then windows was another story as were a murky brown and in clear need of cleaning due to the grime and mould growing against the sturdy glass and there are perfect fine of a house as there are interesting intact as A small ginnel led to the back garden via the side of the house and a dilapidated concrete box was supposed to be a shed alongside it opposite the house area as well just it's is just was bigger than before as there was more area in the back wait isn't this a mansion but a small villa now but how is he going to afford this now as he started to properly investigated the property at first it looked like a big house but not a villa has then he's saw little path led to a concrete square that led up to a smaller patch of green and tall, tree-like bushes that surrounded the edges of the little concrete compound as There was a wooden table covered in bird crap and the chairs for it had long since been stolen by now or broken as then the very house itself was a gary and black colour from the bricks now and as it seemed like a few of the very roof tiles had gone missing by the year's and then an poud that's was connected to a bigger pool pond now and that not what he expected at all this place to have and then what a little bridge over it as he thought and then looked at the side and there's was a small bridge over big pond has jaune couldn't help but believe this but he just sighed and then continued with his tour as now as there was a chimney that had a roost of crows blocking it, and as Jaune could practically hear theirs squawks waking him come morning and then he saw there was a nest on the roof and just that it lives now.
It was a craphole has It needed some work put into it, but before long jaune was certain he'd be callings this very place his has then jaune started to wait until the call was received by someone's and then they had an issue and jaune just kept on listening to the person as we'll he's started to sit down on the nearbys chair just As that was different story about them as they all just as they all just disappear one day withouts telling just anyone at all and that was a mystery and as since the house is like this abandoned and no-one come to just collect or claim it and that's was 40 years ago and the very government just put it a random auction and just for him they can make a good deal and give him for as just for free but he's is expected to rebuild it himself if he can be affordable and time and that is he was just plannings from the start and then he's was told to just visit the places and the paperwork's will be ready and it is something he was expecting and jaune drove has there to the location today and as he's looked around the house and land in it and just as then he's met with people's of the community that check this places and explain him the story and then after as long parpared for everything that was related against it and it was as then officially it was now jaune arc new home and it is then resisted as Arc residence now as then it was just then jaune spend his three days long and straight and as then started to clean the very place up one by one.
As then that's how he started to spend his few days in the very house cleaning and restoring it as it was just one of the things that kept him busy as jaune was just fixing the floor of the house as it was two story house and it was made by wood and then just concrete and its was just something he was a custom to from small age has his father always teaches him about how's to rebuild his small broken thing's and appreciating that little thing in life he was naive back then and now had he final learn that lesson and he should proceed to be positive and move on with his life now as it's might be possible that one day he's may go back to home but as then a thought crossed his mind as just what's will happen next in his life and what is he just expected to face if he goes back home who will be waiting for him there's is still a mystery's the his friend's accepting of course they wouldn't as they all just were only accept themselves no one other than the four group of them and as they're would betraying him in a heartbeat if it just meets there agenda in the end and then he is just happy that he is away from them and that's war Ozpin just punched him and rest in but he can't fault him as he was suffering the most responsibility just from that alone all these centuries and a then again as they just all don't need some like him old what he did in life and he was alway's look down by them as still he won't be shocked even at his grave they'll wouldn't accept him and then he sight as he stopped for moments and as just then reflected upon himself and his pasts and his choices as then it was very hot as he thought and just looked around his surrounding's as he's looked up at the sun and for a moments there as it was was wrong as then jaune stood in the middle of the roof and just stared at it. One sun Just the one, sitting up there in a perfectly normal sky like and that's was a completely reasonable thing in the world he's turned his head left Then right and just still just the one and His chest did something uncomfortable and he have not felt this in a long time now He's put a hand out to steady himself against nothing, found nothing, and as settled for just standing there's looking stupid in the very middle of a cobblestone floor as while people walked around the area and looked at him for some reason and moved a away now it's okay, he thought just think He was good at that now and Thinking slowly. He's had decades of practice as cobblestones under his boots it was Hard uneven, a little damp. He stomped once. They didn't react and just as Didn't giggle or shift or try to have as conversation with it Good sign as The air smelled like bread and fresh as just slowly pulled into city dust as well by the moment He looked at the horizon. Regular mountains with just rock just stone as just mountains doing normal mountain things. No jelly. He's checked twice. No gingerbread as No cheese trees which was honestly a relief most days and as inexplicably wasn't right now as he looked down from floor at road infornt of his house it was just regulars street in a regular city under one regular sun Remnant, he thought and just about his life there till then everafter with everyone as he started to know and then left behind He can never go back to Remnant as he thought He stood with that for a moment and as then looked down at his hand's.
Young as His very hands were young as with no scar on the left one. Smooth knuckles as He turned them over like they might have answers on the back. They didn't as then he started to sit down and then walked downstairs to the bedroom that still had a window as well for a moment there and looked at his reflections. Young face. Same nose, same jaw, same eyes that's felt like they belonged to someone's who hadn't seen what he'd seen. He touched his hair. Blonde, mostly, but with his white streaks as running through it at the temples and just spreading like they'd been in a hurry.
Fair enough now
He held out his right hand as palm up, and reached to his Aura now as It's was there. Of course it was there. Pale gold light pooled across his palms just quiet and warm, as spreading to his fingertips without any fuss. His Aura and just has Steady as it had ever been now. He's let it go and sat down on the nearest chair as the chair did not have feelings about this. He appreciated that as He looked at the sky for a while and there was hole in the middle of the house floor and as then he's just started to stare at it and as before it's was time for quick walk has he started to walk around the property and he had seen everything about it as it was just big house like his family back home and it's is just with an basement with two story building with two garden just one in the front and one in the back as there are small as one it is small ville as he's started to clean and just clear out the little Forrest it's had been struggling with as the pound was dirty with frogs and bug's and with many others parasites long with them as that is when he touches it when he will hire professional cleaner's now as then he started to move back to the floor and to its own taris now and then sitting down on the floor for a moment Looked at the mountains. Looked at the tree line and the clouds and the very normal and very stationary, and very silent world around him as this is different from everafter and remnants was just never quiet and Even the quiet parts weren't really quiet has something was always watching and always shifting, always getting ready to be relevant as Every rock and road and rainstorm had a reason everything's meant something and he just started to thought about as he just never come with terms with everyone around and everything else like fallen angels and devil's like thing like that Here a cloud was just a cloud as that was just still normal he's hope and jaune just kept's waiting for the second sun and It didn't come and a kept waiting.
As jaune sat there long enough that the strangeness started to dull at the edges, and the way strangeness always did if you let it as He'd spent nineteen years in Remnant and A few short year's just honestly as was nothing compared to the decades in the Everafter but still he is somewhere else as He's knew this place He knew how's it worked around here and jaune just had managed till now and the further future that's problem for the future now and then he's just had to remember something important as he's reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone and as He stared at it for few moment and He turned it over and flipped it's opened has then Pressed the button and the screen lit up. He pressed something else and took a picture of his own knee and then "ho right phone it is like Scroll but with button's" As he said and then he started to dial some numbers now and they were busy and then as He sat there for another minute working through the muscle memory of it, poking at menus, accidentally opening three things he didn't mean to as then Slowly it came back, though less like remembering and more like an old habit shaking itself loose and as he just found the time and He was going to be late for dinner tonight as then rias would mind Jaune put the phone away and stare at the sky before he stood up looked at the road toward the garage and just started walking towards it.
As jaune was just working on two places in the house as that was whole basement and then the garage and there's are easier to handle has the basement as was not that big enough it was small like his apartment as then little smaller then that and then he started by the wood and that he's replaced with concrete and fixing it and stabling it and that was long enough as that just took one day and half hour's and then he's was done with it instead jaune just went back to his garage and then he started to observe and then lay down the new wood and concrete that he's would be using and then next day he was tired and then he started hired some professional and then eight guy's come and then he's explained to them everything's and then they went to work and jaune started to relax and reclaims some of his sleep and when he's woke up they we're done and as then they started with the rest of the house and as just after some time jaune started to restocks the very supplies for the construction and explain everything's and then he's started to exit from there and want back to his apartments in his car and as he's was tried and then rest for few hours before anything else and then he made it to his apartment and then as he started to park his car in his garage as then jaune gets out of his car and locked it and then he started to then observe his own cars and bike as he has five cars and as one bike and and how did he find and achieve that was as simple as two new car's he's found in his new house very garage and then LaSalle, Cadillac's companion make from 1933 or 1934 he doesn't know as it is just in dusty and old compared to everything else and as then second one was dodge dart and it's a 1965 one as the old owners left them and many other's thing's behind and some of them are junk now and he will be declaring them soon and then with his new garage in ready he is going to move ford mustang and his bmw 840ci to that place and buy new furniture for the very house and maybe something's strong and like good wood will do and that's is problem he's will deal in the future now and he's looked at his bike kawasaki ninja zx-1100 and then he pats it's seat before leavings to his home to rest up and continued with the rest later.
After that spending his time in his garage he then just left to his room after he unlocked his front door and it was then he was met with cartian someone's that has been living in his home and yes it's is raynare the very fallen angel and trouble maker as she was spared by rias and the rest as a punishment's for her very crime against Asia and everyone else in rias and sosa very territory they had removed her wings and put her just in house arrest and that last task was given to him as he saw her just was sitting in his couch at home and relaxing, listening to my music, bored out of her mind. As she is being like this for sometime now as she just doesn't know what to do with her life or just anything at this point now she lost everything as her fallen very friend's betrayed her and sold her out and so was her boss now as she had been struggling with that since then she didn't want or make trouble for him or just as anything or anyone else she's was silent around him but raynare did cry in her bedroom alone and as then jaune understand why and where she is coming from and then she learn about Kalawarner betrayal and as she had been struggling with that fact as well and that she was just prisoner then guest but jaune just never plan on hurting or focusing her to do anything without her consent and for Kalawarner as she had left for the underworld and investigate and report back to him as a spy for me for some reason unknown but she's can do what she pleases in the end if don't affect him and then I had done all that today was enough and then it is a good time couldn't really find anything else to do.
As then without saying Anything jaune just waved to her and she's noticed him and waved back at him and then he walked into his room and then he's started to changes his clothes and then walk into his bathroom and take a shower and fresh up and then stepped out and then started to get ready for some nap and jaune then changed into his easy clothes and as just laying down on his bed and as he looked at the ceiling it was normal and through about the street and has the light pole and the three of them and as just what that fight could have been with everything's he had done if he'd decided it differently and he's didn't think about it with regret and More like accounting running the numbers checking the balance the number came out whereas he'd decided they should come out has his very team hadn't seen that version of him as that was the selfish part He knew it was selfish and He'd made choices in that fight partly because the choices were correct and partly because as he just didn't want to watch Pyrrha expression changed when we met again as when she looked at him afterwards and didn't want Nora to stop making the jokes she's made Didn't want Ren to start doing the careful and subtle change that's smart and observant people's did as when they just understood something new about someone as he was aware that this was selfishness dressed up as protection He was fine with that He'd been carrying the harder version of himself for long enough to know that's it was a weight that belonged to him alone and just didn't need to be distributed as it's was not that heavy anymore They'd have to know some of it eventually, has the world was going to keep being the very world and there's would be more fights and more thing's he'd have to do that's had costs attached as But not yet. And not more than necessary and right now across the courtyard and his home he's can imagine Asia was happy and laughing at something issei had said done as rias voice carried from inside the dormitory building at a volume as that suggested the shower situations or Koneko have just stolen her food again had been successfully claimed.
As Kiba was probably at the apothecary reading soap labels with the focused attention and as he brought to procurements with Akeno in the kitchen preparing for everyone else dinner or breakfast as they're were fine has they are happy He'd kept them fine Good enough for me, As jaune thought and He just imagine walked toward his old dormitory and the room was exactly as they'd left it as He didn't need to check, it always was, Beacon's cleaning staff were thorough, but he looked anyway. Four beds, four wardrobes, the very window facing the courtyard and a just then on his nightstand was Juniper statue sitting on it and He picked her up as then Turned the figurine over once in his hand, the carved horns catching the afternoon light, the yellow eyes in the very wood lookings up at him just with the expression as that Jasper had somehow gotten right despite having never seen the real thing as He set her back down and has took off his rusted armor has just one piece by piece, and stacked it the way he always did, chest plate first then bracers then shoulder pads, greaves last The white-and-gold of it's was scratched in places it's hadn't been scratched before. He'd get it seen to and He's still lay down on his bed and looking at the ceiling Outside the window, somewhere across the courtyard as he could hear Ruby's voice and then Yang's laugh and asthen something that's might have been Weiss and Pyrrha talking the specific back-and-forth of two people and who had found a register they were comfortable in and as then penny as the ceiling was ordinary For a moment and in the space between awake and not as he thought about the origami Acres About jelly mountains and then two suns and Juniper gait and the very cheese negotiations and as the long decades of a world that had been strange and difficult and impossible and his hands and sword and penny as she's was there smiling toward's him The memory being put aside with new ones " Good night....penny".
CHANGING LOCATION
TOWN OF KUOH
GREMORY APARTMENT COMPLEX
POV
"Hmmm…." As the light of dawn seeped inside a vast room adorned with many luxuries has well just in the very middle of the areas was just then occupied with an enormous Alaskan King-sized bed and as where a beautiful raven-haired girl just as slept in her birthday suit as showcasing every inch of her voluptuous body with nothings to hide and a scenes which would have appeared in the dreams of many hot-blooded boys as The sound of an alarm blaring in the very background roused her consciousness now as from it's very deep slumber Akeno just rubbed her bleary violet eyes and slowly opened them to be met with a large chandelier she barely ever used to light up the place "so Morning already ?" As she's said and groaned and as feelings the drowsiness increase with each passing second a Devils we're weak to sunlight a not exactly to the level of getting burned alive by it and as that part had been exaggerated — even then Vampires did not have that weakness not like in the movie's now Rather, sunlight merely brought on the sensation of everything feeling a slight bit heavier and as her energy recovery slowed down She yawned, stretching her body followed by a sensual moan of satisfaction at feeling her very joints loosen up by now "...It's cold." She's absentmindedly voiced the stray thought while taking a glance around her room as It — and the rest of the apartment for that matters — was just has far too big for just one person for her liking, with the whole apartment having sparse furniture and even fewer decorations on the walls just now and has there's was also a living room the size of the Occult Research Club, and a bathroom with both a modern bathtub and even a shower and As storage room and a balcony that's let her overlook the entirety of Kuoh and just two more bedrooms just as big, and a kitchen with nearly every kind of appliance she just could wish for. All in all, it was no exaggeration to say she had a luxury villa all for herself….now but just has it was missing something and as Yet she did not hold any special attachment to this place as To her mind, it was nothing more than a spare place as rias gave her to live in when she's needed to as it was closer to the school and Most of the time she lived at the shrine to keep it clean and live through the memories of a past that was long since lost and then she wished to again
But for all the joy that place contained for her, as there were times and just when living there would make the nightmares of that fateful day resurface — has the fire alongs with the loss of her mother's life — all of which made sleeping and there impossible for at least a few days now As she just thought of that and the reasons behind it and the very face of a certain blonde-haired with white streaks as that's was running through itself at the temples and as that person surfaced inside her imagination now as Akeno was reminded of has how he had almost certainly discovered her secret a piece of herself as she wished she could kill once and for all and filing that as keeping it hidden under the shadow from the very entire world by now as then thought just run though her mind as Akeno did quite liked the very second-newest addition to her king's group of friends now — the mysterious Servant who is knight and that he is very different from everyone has she liked to call him secretly has with an unknown origin that he could not remember or he's is lying or keeping it hidden just for some reason and but then personality that made it seem he was always in a good mood…as the guy was certainly an interesting individual as he act mature of his age and jaune is very knowledgeable about many things and then about his last name Arc as he meant be some kind of relationship with her as joan of Arc is famously remembered as a peasant girl who claiming to receive divine visions and has led the French army to critical victories during the Hundred Years' War Her leadership turned the very tide of the conflict and just cemented her legacy as the very national heroine and patron saint of Franceis a patrons saint of France and honored as a defender of the French nation as he's is her descendant and that is impressive now but why's he didn't tell them about that but then again he is just from a different dimension as he told them as that just meant in that's world joan of Arc just alived and have children's of her own now ' As she's thought 'But after Rias talked about the dream she had of his and as it's become rather clear that's he also has some secret's We agreed to confront him about this soon.' As she's thought about it to top it off him being an otherworlder from a reality separate from theirs added has another layer of shock and wonder to the cases just then now.
'Admittedly, I didn't trust him at first and has was even apprehensive of his existence being's so intertwined with rias with the same as whole Master/Servant deal that she still doesn't understand how does it's work in the first all I mean, he admitted that's some Servants were capable of killing their's masters' As she's feels a bit off from him for some reason now She wanted to keep an eye on him and uncover any hidden motives or some secret plot to hurt Rias They already had one major issue to worry about as with the very upcoming Phenex engagement, and having Another's source of trouble weigh them down was unacceptable as at the very moment and Then for some reason, this mission of hers to observe him derailed almost has soon as it began when he's called her, "little girl." As Saying that right to her face with a straight face that made Akeno actually want to punch him, someone that wasn't her father or brother now but really Her, a little girl ? How does he think he is now has Akeno just stopped as in tracks now as she's was angry about that and Akeno stopped in front of a large mirror just showcasing her entire body, having curves as that's made her second to none in the entire female populations of Kuoh with the only person surpassing her figure being has Rias' mother and maybe Grayfia and An ample bosom that outshined even Rias' glistening from the sweat she's accumulated while sleeping, broad hips that gave her an ass to die for, and a figure she's just genuinely was proud to show off every single day — and as she was called a little girl !? That was the most ridiculous thing she ever heard ! As she's thought as everything's just about herself was anything but little ! As she thought.
Then she had witnessed as right before her eyes, the kitchen which had always belonged to her alone, got stolen in less than a day by this newcomers of a man as who's is somehow had just superior cooking skills now ! How can that be possible now and he just took away just her position !!! As that thought just infusion her ever more now "rias summoned an servant, not a private chef as So why is he so good at being one ?" She said and then pouted and thinking about how he already had everyone's under his thumb by now with his exquisite cooking skills — has including her. Then their little dispute turned into a cookoff and where she constantly tried to prove herself to the spirit of a dead person, only to be proven inferior every times without fail now and as then he started to make lunch for rias and her little Koneko now as she had just become his very own secret servants and bodyguard now and no girl can come near him with Koneko fellowing him as around now THAT stupid RAT !!! Yes that he is a dirty rat now but Regardless, she had come to enjoy such moments despite herself, when she will definitely will defeat him has in both the contests and the challenge she faced were rather thrilling. Yet now even that was being's threatened by the very event's of the past and her own nature now 'hahaha' "as He must hate Fallen Angels after seeing what they were capable of…now" As she thought and started to grab her clothes and as laying them down on the bed just as after seeing what Raynare did to Hyoudou Issei, how that woman tried to manipulate the boy yet again by usings the Yuuma persona to twist him against his comrades. Even she was a step away from ending her right then and there in a manner both quick and agonizing, and has would have if jaune hadn't stopped her and as then what' as she thought "Hah, I think alright has enough of those thoughts He promised to talk things out." She did not know whether to look forward to such a moment or as not and Shaking her head, she went to the bathroom to freshen up and wear some casual clothes has then Akeno left the bedrooms and into the living room and where's a certain blonde was happily watching a kids' show on the TV with wonder in her eye's and she's is not surprised by that she's was literally living in a very isolated church her whole life now and she's is found out by her curiosity of the world around her She found the scene to be very adorable ' As akeno thought and then she's started to call her out as she's was walking out of her bedroom "Asia-chan, ~good morning~" As she said to her "A-Ah, g-good morning to Y-you t-too Himejima-san!" As Asia just greeted the her as she is wearing her school uniform as she's was parpared to leave as she's was dropped here by rias as she's was just looking for a suitable home for her to just manage and then "I-I'm sorry,...I didn't mean to w-wake you up with the noise!" As she said to her "Fufufu~ just don't worry about that now..... I just tend to wake up early in the morning Come, let's have breakfasts and we can discuss our plans for today." As Akeno just said to her with a smile on her face "Y-Yes !" As Akeno started to walk away toward the kitchen has then Asia followed Akeno around like she was her mother and she is the child as this delighted Akeno and she's giggled at her little action and then this continued on for moment as then Akeno could not help but chuckle as when Asia accidentally tripped on the carpets and fell face-first. She was quite the clutz, the few hour's Akeno had of getting to know her had proven that first tumble at the first door when the Queen picked her up hadn't been a one-off and rias had advise her to look after her and before she's disappears and run out towards Koneko as who had caught again robbing her food as storage again and she looked them with sweat drop just now.
As she remembers that entire conversation and very situation just yesterday really she needs to find away to beat jaune in his own game one ways another now as that is a cooking contest "So I will make you some tea," given there was a guest, she decided to use her favorite herb's for breakfasts "As Here you go," she's handed over the tea cup which Asia accepted after a few minutes of waiting and for Asia to sit near the very dinner table chair now and she was her first new job.
"Thank you !"
This wasn't how it was supposed to go, given Asia's connections to the Church and murky background — she was supposed to have a separated apartment of her own but she's is clumsy at times and rias is afraid to see her hurt herself but regardless of who she was in the past she's is now part of her family now and she will take care of her So they talked all night and it was late enough for her to decide to let her sleep over for a bit and of course not at Issei home as for reasonable reason Koneko just strongly just rejected that As rias was patient at that and Asia was staying at rias home at the while before coming to her home as she made sure to take all the necessary precaution's, including but not limited to a dozen bounded field as inside her room to act as both a protective field and alarm just in case someone tried to enter without permission or as if tried anything with Asia now "Hm ?" Akeno noticed Asia watching her for a long time by now has she was preparing some breakfast along with the tea that she promised "Am I so beautiful that's you can't take your eyes off me ? What a sinful nun~" As she said with a teasing smile now trying to stop herself from laughing when her guest's face turned crimson red as she was about to pass out from embarrassment at the end as with the moment "N-N-No! It's not that! I'm just a b-bit confused…" As she said to her "Confused ?" As she asked her as Asia averted any eye contact and poked her fingers together. "P-Please do not get angry, but I wasn't expecting a Devil to be so….....you know very welcoming now ?" As she said to her and that just as confusing for Akeno herself now and 'why did she ask her this in the first place ?' As Akeno thought herself.
As seeing Akeno was just get further confused with a giant question mark has on her head as the devil-Nun started to panicked and just waving her hands around continued to elaborate "No I D-Don't n-o-no I-I mean, you were very nice to me, provided me with food and a room to stay for the night I… I never thought I would experience such a thing from a Devil." As Asia said to her as she was then tapping her finger together again as then Akeno started to understands where she was coming from now as she smiled towards her " ~Hoo I do now understand your confusion now you Growing up in your secluded, heavily religious environments, I realize that's the people's around you would paint us Devils as the most vile and evil creatures imaginable. But in the end, you'll find we are no different than you or any other humans~" As Akeno said to her smile on her face "Yes see erm…like strangers are friend's you haven't met yet !" As Asia said to her Akeno just then stopped looking at her curiously " That is correct in a way but asia where did you learn that ?" As she asked her truth be told as Asia just has felt incredibly lost at the moment as she's did go to school and everything as when she's just arrived in Kuoh she'd expected to be put though as the most vile and evil things but just they are the once again save her from worse fate than before and then jaune was someone who helped her the most with issei now and she haven't seen him for sometimes by now "...Don't worry, I'm not here to hurt you, quite the opposites in fact " As Akeno said to her Asia as " it was teach by church then...if is a sensitive type of topic yo-" As she's was interrupted by her "Eh N-Noo that-t not it- it was not thought by the church... but it was said by jaune when I first met him just same time age ?" As Asia said to her and as with a blush on her face now That's came out of nowhere and stuped the nun who even forgot the fear she felt just then and then though along the journey to the apartment she's then explained it to her everything about her story as how she met jaune and then the church and as fallen angels and then the last moments till now As in that's moment as Akeno started to think about jaune action till now as it was like he's knows about something and it was at the last minute as he told rias about it as the lady who's she learned was named Himejima Akeno, told her the full story as both of them were silent and thinkings about the certain blonde servant secret just now as then explained how they met with jaune and it was him who told and convinced rias her master just about her With the Fallen Angels having tried to kill an innocent boy just because as he was holding a gift of God similar to herself, how's they tried it again only to be taken care of in an instant by the Devils who we're keeping the population safe Then the revelations of a device capable of extracting as her twilight healing so one of the Fallen could take it for herself and as killing the original host in the process and how he is helping everyone else and that's he was some kind of hero in the past as that the summon ritual as was about him.
The entire time, she stayed quiet, not knowing how to react to this news as that was a miracle in her eyes as someone's like jaune could be a legendary hero from the past "You look sad," Akeno noted and has able to read Asia as an open book with how expressiveness she was. "Are you not happy to be saved from such a brave person ?" As she asked her 'Happy ? No she is beyond happy it was a miracle that she was saved in the first place and why Did she deserve to experience such a thing's in the first place ? And then jaune how as did he's know and did god sent him to save her' As she thought Having not spoken with Akeno about any details about her problem's as she's just continued to take sips from her cup of tea. "I'm not sure. I'm happy that no more innocent people will be harmed But I will not be punished for my sins and.. then be able to earn forgiveness from The Lord-" As then both Asia and as Akeno flinched at moment and experiencings a split-second headache from hearings His name again and as why just why. "Ah, f-forgive me! I forgot about that I mean to-!" As Akeno step forward and a then hugged her from behind "It's okay... I know you didn't mean to Also what punished ?" As she said and asked her and then the raven-haired girl just guessed that there was some history behind Asia with punishment now and it is something that she didn't need to understand what it means and given the only groups and who's joined up with Fallen Angels like Raynare and her little group were rogue priests and criminals — then it meant that she was an excommunicated nun but was something As she could not imagine girl asia just could be in the end Akeno could say with confidence that the girl did not look like a psychopath hellbent on hurting others just for pleasure and she meant tripping on the way to her victim now and that might be cute and victim just might violent death be by laughing and her cuteness overload now as she thought and giggling at thought.
"I don't see how that's might help you get any sort of forgiveness from Him...Trust me, being punished and going through trials and tribulations does nothings to help anyone earn his very forgiveness I won't ask you about what you've done you if it's feel uncomfortable with sharing your past experience but....I know how it feels to be despised by very a large group and thrown away by people you just previously thought you could trust.....so I can sympathize with you to some extent." As she said to her Out of instinct as her hand came to rest on the blonde's head. Gently parting her hair with a gentle smile that made any worry inside Asia's very heart slowly melt away instinct now "so don't dwell on the past too much. You're safe now, everything will be alright." As Akeno said to her with insuring smile and it was just like jaune and rias and issei smile now and then In all her little life that she never would have Asia imagined that's the first one to comfort her ever since she got excommunicated as would not be the people she grew up with, the sisters and just fathers who she considered as family — but rather then from a devil of all people now as it was unfortunate and unexpected in the end as watching the nun on the verges of tear's made an unpleasants feeling rise in Akeno's heart At this moment the person who sat in front of her was no differently from a loving puppy kicked out of her home for most likely a minor fault that was out of her control as she's wanted forgiveness from Him, but that would most likely never happen, and just repenting wouldn't yield any results as rias would obviously try to recruit her first place but then that's entire event was usually and it did worked for in her favour but Akeno did not if Asia would agree given how devoted she clearly was to her faith even after everything that's had happened to her till now it was waiting heavily on her even on as she is devil now what is do what to do "—!" Suddenly, an idea popped into her mind a plan that could relieve a large part of Asia's worries. "Asia, do you believe in forgiveness from entities like Saints or even someone of individuals that is close to the ruler of Heaven?" As she asked her with a smile "A Saints ? I guess so…. if they are affiliated with the Lor— I mean, yes! I pray to them and Our Father in Heaven every day with all my heart !" As Asia said to her and noticing that's akeno was smiling but it's was interesting increasing by the second when she mention about the saints "Great !" Akeno said and clapped her hand causing's her body to shines with a bright light and before the awed Asia as she watched Akeno very regular clothes changed to that of a shrine maiden at the moment just glance.
"It so pretty !!!" As Asia said with excitement in her as well that made Akeno herself happy "Fufufufu~ thank you !" It was always a nice experience to have other's compliment her current attire. It was the same Shinto priestess outfit that just once belonged to her mother "You see, Asia, on top of being a Devil and I'm also a shinto priestess with connections to higher entitie as similar to the likes of Saints and as even Angels. And our group just happens to be affiliated with such a jer— uhm 'Saint' I mean. A true hero who has saved the lives of countless people." As she said with smiled on her face now As Asia forget to noticing as that akeno was smiling but it's was interesting into a grin just has now "Really !?" Asia got up from her seat with shock written all over her face. "I-I-I can get to meet such an individual ?" As she asked her in excitement now has akeno started to pat her head like she was her mother or big sister now "Yup, you have met him before and as he likes to call himself a old man." As she said with evil purposes in her mind and as it confuses Asia just now and then some where else someone felt the very disturbance in the force and it was not good at all now
CHANGING LOCATION
KUOH ACADEMY
POV
"Are you still mad at jaune, Issei ?" As rias asked him as just Back in the Occult Research Club as rias was busy with the paperwork she missed from the raid on the church. Sona refused to take over her work again as she herself has been suspiciously absent for over an entire day now as Her peerage members were still taking care of the matters in the student council room though as according to them Sona had spent most of her time at the library with Tsubaki, working on some of their projects as she had asked for jaune as we'll in the matter of fact now as that was strange at first but then again he's had been helping out around the very campus once a day and then he started disappeared completely after school now for some reason now as that was somethings she didn't understand but she is not position to qualify questions him and Koneko had some matters to attend to with one of her clients who needed the girl's help for an upcoming cosplay event, Aa Yuuto had requested to be exempt from his duties today and as That left Rias alone in her office with the newest addition to her Peerages issei as she was just looking after her "Of course I am !" Issei shouted, the memorie's of the incident with Yuuma resurfacing in his mind only to fuel his rage. "He used Yuuma-chan and me for his goals in a sick way ! As Oh, and Kiba is just as guilty for participating in that ruse as well !" As he said to her just as How could anyone go so far has that and just a reactions from someone else ? As that is pushing him to such a level of emotional a distress as that day that the boy vomited soon after due to the stress after the fight now and then that along with the very exhaustion that's came from just awakening his Sacred Gear, and which turned out to be an amazing awesome weapon just like some from the anime he's watched ! Nevertheless, all of it was buried under the very deep resentment he's carried over the ones who enabled him to reachs this level and he did save Asia in the end and then He's is also wanted to be mad at rias, as she was the one who approved it want along with him in this entire time and just why's did she let ?

But there's was silent betweens them and in the room as then his complaints died down his throat when the redhead sitting at her desk leaned against the table to reach for another document now as that single move exposed a fair amount of cleavage from her loosened uniform, making his mind go blank as his obsessions for breasts took hold has rias noticed him staring and flashed him a small smile, which obliterated any bad feelings and left behind only a raging flame of desire !
'Uoooohhhh ! The legendary cleavage shot!' As issei just thought as he had that pervert expression on his face now and as this was truly a gift from Go— Ouch! No Lucifer… a gift from Lucifer, as that he was able to witness such a sight and as the fabled Rias Gremory, herself and as the most popular of the onee-samas in school and ranked number one beauty a he'd quickly gotten over his shock of her being a devil, and grew to accept that all of the most popular students just in the very school were not human, with Akeno and the rest of the occult research club along with the just awhole Student Council being like her — Devils — and as the same now went for him as well and as then jaune was different case as he was human but stronger as That bastard had mentioned how as a devil... I could finally have his own harem ! And... Filled with the busty girl's straight out of his dreams as His eyes veered towards the redhead contemplating whether or not he could… but then "Issei," Rias called him out of the blue with a more serious tone that's just made the daydreaming pervert flinch at her voice then then straight up by the second notice "Y-Yes!" He said with a ramrod straight posture and slight tremor in his voice as He looked to find his King leaning back againsts her chair with her arms crossed and looking at the ceiling just now and then she started to speak "I'm glad that you became a Devil and awakened your Sacred Gear, the latter of which is an extraordinary achievement's in itself But we both cannot afford to slow down here as quite the opposite in fact In the future we will face threats much bigger than the likes of raynare and just as few rogue exorcists, and... you'll have to be ready by then to not only protect yourself but also the other's members of this group in future" As she's said to him " jaune did it for your future and benefit for others as well to protect you and everyone else here and if he is not with us in the future then what will you do then you couldn't just process to protect everyone's and someone else's in the future now" As she said to him as issei was quite and taking in the information and he was in thermoile with this as will he's strong enough to protect them or he fail like before As issei thought about it and as her very pen tapped against the wooden table, it's sound echoing across the room as he's was listening to his home room teacher pen down like in detentions now.
As just each tap's synched with his heart has making him aware of the tense atmosphere that appeared so suddenly "I know you may hold grudges toward some of us because of the method we all have used to just bring out your Sacred Gear now was supposed we all can help you fight those battles ourselves and as you are passenger with us what have you learnt from this Issei you can't afford that type of luxury not with your current positions now and don't worry or forget that's you are devil now as fallen angel and angel and there ally our enemy in the end one missteps you are die in the end from your enemy and many other's house in the underworld would have known to tolerate are just very low and they're might have made you just a stray devil and killed you many of them just don't tolerates servant who disobey there master order now but just even two close encounter's with death failed to bring it out" As she said to him as he's was looking down at his feet and thinkings about what she said to him and shevwas right snd he was a bit foolish he is a devil as Yuuma-chan was a fallen angel and she was him very enemies and he nearly mass up everything and every one live in the end an "so it was the very best method available to speed up the very process of you getting stronger as training your very demonic powers as can only get you so far in a short amount of time and then trainings you to use your Sacred Gear has will be.. it's own challenges... If you are angry at us though, then I completely understands." As she said to him and just then he looked at her for moments "It's… I'm not that angry." It was a lie, he was furious. But also knew that the one he'd wanted to protect at that's time, Yuuma, did not truly exist. So it wasn't like he had been in the right either.....The Fallen Angels had been planning to kill innocently and Asia how she had been struggling with that awful memories with them and what they as done with her as it's boil his blood pressure but jaune did it for them and for him and as he was just willing to protect one of them... Still, Issei did not think he could stand to the side even now if something's bad were to happen to Yuuma; some feelings just could not die so easily....and for Asia sake "There's is no need to lie to me, Issei. As your King,.. it is my duty to listen to your feelings and to help you in any way I can." As she just said to him He gulped, finding it hard to keep his gaze away from her breasts has they pressed againsts the very desk's surface once again now and listening her.
"And it is also my duty to make sure for there to be no discord between my peerage member's And as more importantly, has jaune Master as we'll I can't have you hate him forever has it's would just certainly affect the group's dynamic....He may have only been with us for a little longer than you issei but he's proven himself to be strong as wise and experienced and good friend to us all and is quickly becomings a pillar of support just for me and my peerage I'm certain that if you can look past your misplaced resentment, he'll be the same for you and Asia in the end." As she's said to him as issei just looked down and there was also the fact that rias realized how such negative feeling's could grow over time if not treated early on Jaune mentioned how has a leader of this of her that as she needed to look after everyone regardless of how minor the issue might be in the end and It was up to her to either address these kinds of matters herself, or see to it that her servants had the opportunity to do so amongst themselves on their own terms now Another reason was how she did not want anyone in her very peerage to hate her dear Servant and as since a part of her knew jaune himself wouldn't care even if everyone hated him as She can imagine he had rough road as could not stomach his way of handling his own image, so if he was not going to do it then as she might as well step up whether he liked it or not. "It won't even matter if I don't get along with him." As Issei said laughed self-deprecatingly. "I saw how he fought against those Fallen Angel friends of Yuu—Raynare....Not like he'll ever need my help in the first place....and he's was capable enough to help Asia and he might have done that and come home as watched some drama in his couch when we be done with our argument now You yourself mentioned how I have so little demonic energy that even an infant has more than me… I can't even fly properly yet when it's supposed to be something that's can be learned in a matter of seconds according to Kiba." As he's said to her as he was depressed by this thinking At first, he's had been excited to become powerful person as like those anime characters and as create a harem of big-tittied girls as But reality slapped him in the dick hard with how powerless as he really was even as a Devil, and crushing those dreams before they ever came to fruition As he's thinking about them and just a bit sad.
As rias saw his reaction and pondered on what to say next. If this had been even a month or two in the past, the idea of using her charms and as body to motivate Issei would have been a viable option as though now, probably after hanging Arounds jaune for a while, the redhead started to think, 'As what's would jaune do ?' as she thought For someone who acted like he rarely cared about matters of outside theirs Master/Servant relationship or his friend's as he is good with socially with people and he knows how to help someone else without even trying at all and as he good with children as well now and that was weird but jaune had proven himself to be quite attentive to every single one of her peerage members and He's took care of Koneko and became her personal chef, and has his presence had made the girl become more and more expressive just now and that did brightness her a bit And for the past few weeks as rias saw a new side to Akeno she never knew existed and she is was very different and just as always in kitchen for some reason now as the girl had turned out to be far more competitive and possessive than she expected as to put it in a simpler way, Akeno acted like a girl her age should, which felt weird to say since she herself was around the same age Given her Queen's past it was understandable why she became mature emotionally so early on and a with the horrible circumstances behind the loss of her parent's forcing her to grow up earlier than most, even after Rias took her in and now seeing her banter and pout around her Servant was an experience in itself now and all of this is happening because of jaune very influence and as very perceived 'Maybe I should talk with him through our connection and ask for advices ? No, this is just a small issues which I can take care of by myself' In her mind Rias imagined various scenarios and dialogues of what the white knight just would say if he was in the room with them — a though most of them ended with jaune hugging him and tell Issei to go as stop moping around like a b****** now and intentionally provoking the boy as when he inevitably started to act up… She couldn't do that even it might be funny at first but just come on So better to start with something simple and more encouraging ' Maybe tha-no that might be a bad idea like seriously jaune marbles hurt you that makes no sense ' As she thought about him as when he last spoke with her "Issei, do you know what the Boosted Gear is ?" As She asked him fiddling with a small pen that was actually a Projections as she asked jaune to create for her to use as For what purpose ? Nothing in particular, she just wanted to interact with his abilities and grow familiar with them before anything else now.
'…Wait a minute and as since this is a Projection, if he dismissed it then wouldn't all of my work disappear ?' as Dangerous thoughts started to fill her mind as she just remembered the piles of documents she had just finished filling out usings this particular pen and that's he is very careful with his very abilitie's and just rarely shows them to anyone arounds us and if the ink we're to disappear with the pen now as rias just then gulped shaking her head to just then just as stop herself from getting distracted in the middle of a very hard serious conversation! 'He'd better not dismiss it before these are processed.' Sona was goings to kill her, literally, if the paperwork she's turned in was all blank and then she's wasn't putting her time in things "Buchou ?" As she's snap out thought for as when her servant called her out "It's nothings just some stray thought's." She carefully put the pen away, makings sure to handle it with care as Archer had mentioned how even a crack could make a Projected object disappear and if it was severe enough. "So, Issei, just do you know anything about your Sacred Gear functions ?" As rias repeated her questions towards him as then issei thought "You told me it could double my power…." As he said to her As she understands her assessments now " Actually That's both true and false." Her response caused the boy to look at her with confusion, so she continued to speak. "You see, doubling one's power is an ability of both Twice Critical and the Boosted Gear. But there's is one key difference betweens the two as the latter is a weapon known to have the power to kill god's even when in the hands of humans while the former merely gives a fighter a decent but a overall minor advantage and nothing more and You see, there is no limit to the number of times the Boosted Gear's ability as can be activated from what I understand, so you can double your power as many times as you like so long as your body can support it very power in your body now and then with a bonus you have the power of an infant just now and that's true but doubling it's enough times will make you strong beyond your wildest dreams and it's is nothing is impossible, Issei you just have to believe in yourself" As she's said to him as issei just stand up from his sit "Woah, that just sounds way cooler than I thought!" Issei exclaimed with renewed vigor, though there was a question that plagued his mind. "But, uh, what's kind of enemies are we gonna be fighting that I've gotta figure this whole thing out so quickly but as wait.....minute Buchou ?" As issei asked as thought for a moment now as he was stareing at her " You just seem to think it'll be happening real soon, too ?" As It seemed like she was in a hurry for some reasons He couldn't exactly prove it, but he had a feeling just now.
As then rias' for a moment there very smile started to just dampened for a second "Oh…it's nothing." She'd been feeling rather agitated ever since the raid on the church and all stemming from one piece of news that jaune brought her shortly after everythings was done.

ONE WEEK AGO
" Wait done you say you saw a red macaw ?" As she asked him as Standing in front of the now destroyed abandoned church as rias asked the question with a surprised face as her friend and servant revealed an unexpected piece of information to her just now and then that's a familiar had been watching their actions all this time as she understand's that it was A spying familiar that neither she nor Koneko had managed to discern the presence of awhile engaged in the battle against the rogue priests and teaching Issei the rules of the Evil Pieces and then since it fellowing them all since he was buying his car and his house till now as it was time that alarm her the most " wait....minute did it get teleported back once it realized that you'd seen it ?" As she asked him as it was one of reasons seed of suspicion germinated in her mind now as she's just could only think of a single person she was remotely familiar with who would bother to spy on her and hers with a familiar as vibrant as a multi-colored macaw as like phoenix now and then it belong's to him now and it is very concerning now as how long he's has spying on her and as then this just makes more complicated.
"No it didn't because I tried to freed it and then it was spying on me for months and then I tired to nice till it just tried to attack me and as mock me on my window for some time and so I decided on plannings to make chicken cheese roast for everyone else a celebration dinner so then I killed it and before I could finally get to the best part It burst into flames upon it's death so I was sad and decided why not just order pizza instead of action just now" As jaune told her as with a straight face now and Rias kept on nodded on his explaining.

"You do what !?" As she said as At that moment, she was looking around her surrounding was waiting for a large magic circle to appear from the ground, blazing with hellfire followed by a furious man emerging from it and foolishly going for her Servant's head now and then after sometime she kept on waiting for someone to show up thankfully it didn't happen and she sighed in relief and then jaune was looking at her actions as it was strange as she reminded him of ruby and weiss for moment there as jaune raised his eyebrows at her and then it comfortable confirmed something he was in the middle of put down a very rare majestic animal in his over and bring it's very extinction then he's just as should apologize to the federation and make sure that he is not surrounded by FBI now has he's looked around and then he's started to remain very calm "So Judging from your reaction's, I take it you have some idea has to who's that familiar may have belonged to" He stated and depends that he is very much anything but panicking at the moment has Projecting a copy of a book his Master gave him about the general history of Devil society and flipping through some pages and he was reading in his free time from work and then for entertainment now as it was like reading a light novel now but with documentary style "And if I may say so, you seem apprehensive of this person and has most likely dislike them greatly given just as how this is the first time I've seen you just sporting an expression of such vehement disgust and worry" As he said in clam matter as it did Sound's cool but he's by mistake tried to kill very majestic and rare animal and make a very delicious food recipe from it and he need to apologize to the owner as rias was hesitant at first, but as ended up nodding her head, "I do… and this could mean that something's I've been worried about for a while might be more pressing... than I thought it would be...Say, jaune…they are dangerous people's even the most of the noble people fall before them" As she said to him as jaune started to understand the full picture as now.
As she is very sacred and have been confidence and that it is that one group of organisation's as that even the devil in afraid of and then that made his situations far more worse then it confirms it as the one that just attempted to get them is the IRS As he remembered one of there slogan ' remember pay your taxes as get your refund status Find IRS forms and answers to tax question's as we help you understand and meet your federal tax responsibilities' As that just send a chilling sensation just down her spine now " jaune" As he just was caught out of his thought looked toward her now. "Yes, rias ?" As he asked her "will you..… stay by my side, no matter what challenges I'll face ?" She asked timidly, behaving has if his answer was going to be no despite their contract has though it showed jaune the extent of the problem rias was facing alone and it was then he started to shake his head as rias was starting to feel sad as she at least tried and falling hope of her very situation "Rias that Such a foolish questions I'm astounded that my friend would even feel the need to ask, " he replied, before looking her dead in the eyes and smiling at her as she's started to look up towards him with widened eye's "Of course silly I will rias I'll be right by your side even in the lowest pits of Hell itself, to the very end. Such is my duty as your friend and as then I am your servant and so stop worrying and trust me." As jaune said to her with a smile on his face and he looked down at her Rias couldn't stop the growing blush as she heard his promise to her, it's was rare to see him have a big genuine smile on his face instead of his usual smirk like smile "so Should I be worried ?" the servant asked her as he was curious about how to deal with them "It's… nothings for now, no. I still have time." Jaune was her Servant and good friend and he was strong and she can guess he is just Far stronger than the entirety of her Peerages combined currently as there's was no need for her to keep this matters a secret from him and if needed but then again if jaune is registered as a devil then that's a different topic and then he's is still human and the racking system don't see or recognise him as one and that might be a very problem but in the end as she trusted him with her life and his very answer just now reinforced that sense of warmness inside her heart just now and she is happy.
As everyone's in her peerage aside from Issei already knew about this matters, and having him of all people still be kept in the dark was just simply illogical by this points as issei and Asia are naive and little emotional and let there heart do the talking but when facing him and many others like devil's and fallen angel's can be very risky Yet why did she's feel scared telling him her secret ? Where was this hesitation coming from ? As she's wanted to tell him but the words wouldn't come out now and deep in her thoughts, she noticed jaune sighing and approaching her till he's stood just a few feet from her as she met his gaze trying to calm down her racing mind- "Kyah !" As Jaune smile had flicked her forehead now "jaune just !? What was that for !?" Honestly and there was no logical reason to decline a request such as this aside from intentionally making his own life harder than before but he there standing smiling toward's her like it was nothing at all to worry about and then she's should stay positive all the time.
BAM !
Before rias could give her answer to the knight and as then her thought and memory was interrupted by the door of the old school building just burst open with an enraged Issei as he was cheering for some reason as then running out of her office with a bang The Pawn's eye's widened when he's saw both Akeno and Yuuto in front of him with Asia as though his attentions was mostly directed at the Akeno boob's and a then Yuuto and Asia was smilings at him and he's was in his very moments to realizes surrounding and he was quite in embarrass as rias' previous words echoed inside his mind, how apparently she's and then that handsome blonde cool bastard just slept together every night !!! As he might have feeling's her water lemon's up very close as Issei was just jealous from that traitor and as that he thought that he was his bother and virgin and he was in the same boat but nooooo he's was playing with him and his feeling's now As then he started just move pass them as he waved and then started to just leave down the stairs and then until he saw jaune just in his casual clothes and he looked more handsome with that black leather jacket as with white T-shirt and his dark-blue jeans with some fancy looking shoes as he was talking with some people and how happened to be girls and one of them is sosa herself and then it was something unexpected His body moved by itself, instinctively going for a punch but it's froze when the punch connected with his stomach it just stopped in it's tracks and it did not do anything at all but instead it hurt like f*** in hell what's is he's made of a concrete itself now as jaune just stared at him for a moment as then tapped his shoulder slowly " ho hey issei and it's okay withouts the punch it did not hurt at all ?!" As he said to him with a smile on his face has then issei just wanted to go for another round but He calmed down and instead chose to avoid a physical confrontational with either of them. "T-This is not the end!" As he said while pointing a finger at jaune.. "I will just be the one day becoming Harem King ! As Just wait, you fucking two timing jerk ! I'll become so strong and just as cool and awesome like you one day noooo I will be cooler then you and that all the hot girls with huge boobs will fall for ME just you wait !" With a flimsily thrown insult at the end accompanied as by an offensive hand very gesture by Issei and then jaune looked at him " Ok so noted then you do issei be safe when you go home ok if you need anything need anything call me or just the others !!!" As jaune said to him as he's started to face sosa direction again as she's was just quite confused by his actions alone and Issei went to the gates and as ran out of the school grounds and " just curse you jaune !!!" Just leaving behind a confused sosa and as jaune and then everyone in the Occult Research Club watched this by there very own window and Rias was embarrass by her pawn action and everyone else just without Koneko was laughing at Issei and Jaune very reaction now "so…it Looks like Issei is also motivated to grow stronger." Akeno joked, trying to ease up the suddenly awkward mood "So what do you think of my offer ?" As she said to him and Yuuto kept was going waving at her in no matter and then Koneko saw this and then face her Akeno "…Fine, I'll do it." As she just said to her...As rias just sighed at this but at least now rias wouldn't have to worry about trivial matter just as concerning like his classes and as have more time on his hands to focus on things that's mattered just now.
CHANGING LOCATION
TOWN OF KUOH
AFTER SCHOOL
POV
As jaune Arc was just current the happiest man of the world or at least that's how he's felt at the moment as he is free from his very own school work as with great assistances from Sosa and from her group jaune will be done with his work till tomorrow and then he's will be free for his own house material's and completions was now very near as the basement was done and as with the first floor replaced and done and then one of three rooms in the second floor half was done as well and with his front door and porch was completely and then the pound was a concern but he's will hire some one again to clean that off and pay to make just a new one with there help now and with his garage just then completed as well he should start transporting his car there's and probably clean everything's with the car's as well as he's thought as jaune the mystery teen was standing in the middle of Kuoh as dressed in his black jacket with a white polo shirt with grey pants and then with black dress shoes as he's was walking down the street as with people moving beside him the reasons he was dressed this way was because he was goings to the red light district for some drinking for his victory and success as then he stopped for a moment as just then he saw something as group of colourful girls just walking pass him as he was just staring at with widen eye's as then he wanted to reach out to them but just then stopped his hand in the end as just that was not team RWBYNRO now there just children running just around the corner of the street as he looked up at the night approaching sky and to the building " it been six years since here and it felt like day's" As he said and looked at the same place again " it's been 26 year just since I last saw them all and....my home i hope you all are doing well without me" As he's thought as looking down at his hand's and remember's his first date with Yuuma Amano/ Raynare after a long time and he was happy that he can change his ways and mind has just when the young woman confessed just him out of the blue jaune was suspiciously of her at first that why did someone approved him of all people just but he's had in the moment gained hope but he's was stunned and admittedly confused, but as he's had a someone and he - no never mind it's in the past now.....I - no we just should move on from here has jaune thought himself.
As jaune started to walk away from that place "This is going to be something new." As jaune said as happily ignoring any clear concerns has this his new life and he should live with it now the past is gone as he is no more or longer an huntsman now he is civilian now of this nation and then he started past his self and then it was refreshing as he couldn't save his friend's and the fall happened not because of him but someone's else and he couldn't save penny then but he will just honour her memory from now on as he can't afford to do anything anymore because and there's is nothing to do anything about it it's was out of his control from the very start as he can't save anyone as it's was just doomed from very beginning "Take this" a voice said calmly before placing a flyer in his hand as jaune just snap out of his thought as someone's was gained his attention and turning towards the voice and he saw a teenager girl with messy brown hair dressed in a red top that's showed off a healthy amounts of cleavage with black accent's on her shoulder and a white skirt that showed off her long legs. She had a red bag that most likely held the flyers as jaune recognised her as immediately that she was rias familiar now as he just doesn't remember it name but "Oh thanks" jaune said calmly as the girl walked away just has even he would admit that it was just a strange encounter but he held onto the flyer anyways and few more minutes passed and jaune was starting to think about everyone's and as how are all of they doings nowadays and that have they won against Salem and her forces wasn't goings to show up here and has they're all just might course some problem for everyone else here I hope not now.
As midnight came has the very moolight cold breeze into the forest and I was drying to sing in my teeth you know I am vampire classic as room has the window's was open has rias was just home alone as she's was just waiting for jaune to come back once he's had just finished with his tasks and as then she decides to call her call sano and then asked about jaune progress as then she was surprised to learn that he had done with his work with her hour's ago and he's left somewhere has in the process rias started to pout at the new now as he's had been avoiding her for a few days now and that was strange started to annoy her as rias just then started to roll on her bed but as then she stopped and just looked at the very ceiling as it's is a holiday night and she's would spending her time with her friends or just then doing homework that as she's would receive now again and it was like this for a first long time now this new feeling that's was towards jaune and she just current couldn't tell what did it mean and as then she woul be just locking her door a when coming but now she didn't as rias was waiting for someone's to come home now as that was ironic for her as she's just had never done this before even for her family member's as they're just as always busy or something's like that and they're all do as still love her and then it's was her big brother was just different as not the hate type but to much love type as he cared about me but then she can understand that he is super busy and as with his responsibilities which is dudies as like always and as then he was busy even after her wedding now that is with him as it's did make her sick at the thought of it's.
A leader and as father in himself now and as now with jaune by some reason of the very mark of master and servant on her hand that she had told her mother and father about jaune and they did looked concerned as at first and then she's started to explain her very own relationship's with jaune and just has the then further explaining to them as they made that distinct look on there face from some reason about what types of the person he is as well they smiled for some reason and again then after a very tiring day at school now and as then the redhead was just currently started to treating herself as to Another's shower now and she'd already finished washing herself so now she's just was free to simply relax and enjoy the feelings of the warm water again cascading down her naked body…as she's was thinking about jaune again how he's is always helping everyone out and always consider his situations that he is still from another world has trapped here who's is just trying to find his way back home and then he's still kind became her servant even without any say in the matters and it is unfair for him and she's knows it and she's needs to find away to set him free from this contact but as she doesn't knows where to start and she's did requested to her father and mother as even to her brother and as then with his intelligent network but just still not find any lead around it at all still and it was frustrating for her and then he was brave and just handsome and with that body of his as rias started to remember his eight packs with his biceps and as with chest and his back muscles and he was shredded as she was just rubbing herself again the wall of the very shower as she imagine him leading on her as he was teasing her by feeling her body with his strong and yet soft hands against her breast has just slowly taking it towards her stomach towards her vagina and then as she imagine him rubbing her in that position and then she's just started to make sounds of feminine moans echo throughout the room and as then ejaculated just herself and then suddenly as she's looked around the bathroom and saw it was her own imagination and he was never here looking down at her hand as realised she's was just masturbating with jaune images in her mind as she just blush at the moment and then Rias' started to leave the bathroom and dry herself up and light down on her own bedroom and try forget and as sleep what she had just committed with herself now.
As but meanwhile jaune was walkings down the very streets of red light as he had on his way encounters a group of women who are looking for fun and he's was in there radar "...You sure you don't want to spend the night ~? My friend's are more than happy to clear the guest bedroom for you, you know.~" As one of asked him as jaune just smiled, appreciative of the offer. "No thanks, I might not have a place to stay, but that's not a reason to intrude on the sanctity of a home." He just gave her an earnest smile as the rest of them just fall back as his smiled was so pure smooth talking smile as then as the girls nearby expressed their discontent at the mere interaction there shared as he just waved them a quick goodbye has we parted ways outside of the school as took a moment to look around, thinking of what he should do now as well he's done with a bar and now it might be time to go back home and jaune remember made a mental check of as when he's last spoke with contractor and About 3 weeks ago and so I had no real need to speak with him. I haven't spoken with susuz in quite a while, perhaps I should do that's this weekend and as For now, I should get some food, I haven't stocked up in the last week. The skies seem to be threatening a storm at night as he's thought and then After spendings roughly half an hour in the very convenience store making purchases that would last me the next few days in terms of sustenance and just then jaune waited at the counter has while the cashier scanned my purchases and thanked them, and lazily made my ways out of the store just now and then Arc was walking down BAM he callighted with something and then 'Damn it what WAS That ? Nobody got hurt' As jaune thought and look down to see what collided into him so forcefully, it was a girl, and a pretty one at that and wait she blonde But why's the hell was she's running so fast so late ? He looked up and as maybe someone was following her ? And No, not from what I could tell as he thought as then the girl just got up in a huff. "Why don't you watch where you're going?" She said with a stern look on her face as weiss is that you.
As jaune just sighed and smiled ' Here's we go again ' As he thought and jaune looked at her to ' And dress like her too great' As he thought 'How ironic ' As then jaune just bent down a to give a deep bow of apology as he's felt as the green charm I had placed beneath my shirt slid down with an audible clatter has it hit the ground and She must have knocked it off of its chain as then the girls eyes followed the charm has I picked it up as he looked up at her as she swings around like weiss as she own the place and she might jaune just didn't expect the reaction as that she gave when she saw the pendant in his hand as Her face was a bright red, flush with an intense embarrassment just now as he is missing something now "Are you..a descendant of the 72 Clans of the very underworld ?" She's asked him as jaune very eyes just widened slightly at her as is she a devil then why is she here then again oh wait this is the devil territory of course but why's ask in the open like this " Wait....You're a....Devil?" As jaune just asked her as then she was like majestic yet arrogant at the moment as She nodded and an action that was quickly followed by a look of excitement just now and then suddenly jaune heard the cracks of thunder just nearby, and almost instantly after as drip of water fall on the back of his neck as realised his luck as he just didn't bought his car with him 'curse's' As then jaune just turned away from the girl, and looking to the cafe across the street for shelter now "I can see you have some question you're interested in asking but we just need to leave before it starts with raining now and I'm going to that cafe across the street there as why don't you... just join me if you want and I'd appreciate the company." As he said to her and as she looked at the cafe for a moment and was hesitant at first 'that was good ' but then She agreed as the rain began to pour down, and we quickly made our way to the other side of the street towards the cafe now and as The nearby waitress showed us to a booth in the back of the cafe.
As then we found ourselves some seat and table just next to the window and in the back of the cafe it's was relatively deserted at the moment understandably as it was late in middle of the night and as then he was in cafe with strange girl who blonde and white and devil at same time now but then again at least there's were no people around to hear our conversation now and we both took our seats opposite one another, I barely had a chances to give the very waitress my order and then just as before the girl across from me introduced herself. "I'm so, so, so incredibly sorry for running into earlier, I hope you can forgive me. I'm Ravel Phenex." I leaned back in the booth and just givings myself an opportunity to get a look at her just before responding as she was on the shorter side with blonde hair that's was styled into twin tails that ended in drills She's had fair skin, not so white that I'd say she's pale, but she's definitely didn't spend too much time in the sun and It might be confusing and laughing matters if jaune just asks her been his very long lost cousin sister just now and that might be funny now as then jaune as leaned towards her slightly told her " hey"I'm jaune, jaune arc " As then Her eye's widened upon the mentions of my last name and everyone is overaction at mention and then he should hit the library now " but... I need a very explaining is why And, considering that being run into is how I managed to meet a beautiful girl like yourself running in the might of night and calling out a devil as you should be careful ?" As jaune said to her I could see my compliment had the desired effect as her face became tinged with a flush of embarrassment Before she could respond I spoke, "Well, you seemed pretty eager to speak with me, so why's don't you start with the simplest of your questions ok ?" He offered. She nodded in agreement " no I am not devil or members or..a descendant of any of the 72 Clans of just as the very underworld now" As he said to her She nodded in agreement looked down embarrassment now and then she began asking a string of questions towards him "How old are you ?" As she asked " 20" As jaune told her "Who are your parents?" "I am the eldest son of Jupiter and Nicholas Arc." As he told her and She's just stopped looking at me with a look of even greater interest than she previously had now and something feels off now "That means you're the child of the great descendant Joan of Arc the great saint of Orléans as the heroin of that war" As she said to him and as that just confused jaune just more As who's is she talking about now ? As he thought " A no I am not related to someone like that at all " As he said to her and then it was matter lat" No I am should be one to apologize to you and... Where are My manner My name is Ravel " As she... Told him her name as that is beautiful name right there and " so miss Ravel what's bring you here this late at night and also alone ?" As he asked her as she looked at him as she was trying to study him and his movement and then" I am furious with my brother so I decided to leave him and I am just running now" As she said as jaune can tell she is not being honest with him as it is something's that he shouldn't involve himself in but then as then she started to tell him just about her situation and then her family and the judge as argument with her brother about certain things as then things started to get heated she just run away in few moments later and then she was here with him as till now as jaune just understands her situation better as he then just sighed " I understands...Ravel but no matters what happens betweens you and your family you can't be running around here this late night and in unknown area without anyone it can be dangerous" as he said to her politely as she started to nodded at him and looking down at her table and he noticed this behaviour as she pout her head to the side away has she like weiss as he thought and then this might long.
As then after two hours later both of them kept on just talking to one and another about many things from as different hobbies and different places from the world and comparing them with the underworld and as then understanding there differences culture and they just have ordered some tea and ice cream with it as it's is weird for them at first but they started to like it and as they discuss about differently dramas on TV and then many videos games now as then jaune looked at the moment outside as he felt that someone was just as watching them and then looked at his watch and it is passed his bedtime now and he needs to head back home " Something the matter Jaune ?" Ravel asked as then he's started to shake his head " it's nothing I need to go back home soon " As he's said to her and then started to get up and The storm outside doesn't seem to be letting up anytime soon and as it's not like we don't have anywhere to stay anyway now as jaune thought to himself " So do.... you have place to sleep just now Ravel with everything's else with your family now ?" As jaune asked her as she was just tapping as her finger together as then she smiled at him as then she looked down in defend " Of course you don't" as then he sighed at this and there is going to trouble as over this now as then jaune offered her to stay at his house and Not his apartment as and there is a fallen angel and rias living there and then the close place is his villa now and then jaune want to the bathroom to clean up and then ravel walked over to the front of the cafe counter and pulled out a small phone and began dialing a number on it and she started to pay the very bill now but it was already payed by jaune and as that just left her speechless as he was fast now and She's then started to and seemed to wait for him has ravel was confused at the moment but as she's was in the wrong again and then agreement on bettering herself and then jaune was human and he is kind and honest and she can tell he is worried about her safety and as then she was here on another mission as well and it is to found the one to attack her familiar one week age and brings him to justice now for her family and then she can investigate her soon sister of law and as her very activities now and then she's started to call her family on the phone and it was her mother and father as they are very worried about her and then she just started to explain to them about everything that just happened between her and her brother and as then she explained where is she and who is she with and then his name is jaune Arc and then she was going to his home and that her brother was still mad with her and then they agreed with her and as told her safety precaution now as then and then acted with joy upon the other line responding as other's people thought.
As She seemed to be chatting intensely with whoever was on the other side. The conversation went on for a few minutes and although has jaune finally come out of the bathroom and looks at the front and saw her on the phone talking to someone but as he couldn't hear what was being said between them, ended with Ravel seeming to profusely and thank you whoever she was speaking to now She nearly bowled over the waitress on her way back... As She's then stopped at the table beaming at me At this point jaune had as retired back to his chair as he looked up to her. "So something as what happened ?" I asked, eager to see what she was so excited about..... "I was speaking with my Mother." She said, seeming a bit nervous. "Okay, and this has resulted in ?" As he asked, a bit of tried in his voice as then she's said " jaune I like to stay at yours home for the time and can you help me explore the city now as please don't worry you will be rewarded" As then she told him as this question's came rather unexpectedly as then jaune arc stopped and thought about it's for a moment and though about it and as just then logically speaking my house was closer to the school and just then Ravel's home is like and from the Underworld as meanings I will have a bit of away's to travel but then he will be payed in away and that's might be good for something's now and then again trouble is again just showing up again now but darm it let's do this then it might help me in the long run as jaune just shook the thoughts from my mind, and stood, facing her. With a smile I gave her my answer...."I'd be honored to have you Ravel as a guest in my home for the time beings, and then just however -" As he was interrupted by her now "So no jaune.....I refuse to stay in your home just without giving you anything in return and so if, after a month or so, I feel as if there's is nothing I can give or do that is of equal value in my opinion but... I can pay you and I will leave, and it may be completely without warning, is that agreeable ?" As she just stated now.
So she is like weiss but not completely like her when she was younger but she's knows how to make deal and she is devil sole reasons for this was so I had an out if I began to fall prey to her deal my own instinct's failed me and as Ravel was young, and I really didn't want to take advantage of her good nature we smiled apparently happy with the terms we had stated. "I can agreed to that's." he's said plainly and As we stood to leave, I couldn't help but think that maybe this wasn't such a great idea. He smiled, silently wondering what exactly this girl was planning as it was still raining out side as both of them standing outside together as just then it was still raining outside and " this was not just part of the plan " As she said and when she try to turn back into the cafe it immediately just closed and then we cursed our luck now and then we might be walking home like this and then jaune's take of his jacket and as put it over Ravel head as she looked up at him and then they started to move like this and until they both have made it far enough in the street's before they're both found a taxi on the park area of the corners few buildings later few minutes of walking in the rain now.
