The four women appeared in a soft flash of teleportation light inside a spacious room of Sitri's private estate.
Sona and her peerage, along with Akeno and Koneko, were already waiting.
All the yanderes wore the same mix of anger and shock, though everyone except Koneko and Isabella was only pretending.
Rias took two unsteady steps forward before collapsing onto the nearest sofa. Her shoulders hunched, her tears flowing freely once more. She buried her face in her hands, her body trembling with silent sobs.
The sensation of ascending to heaven when she had finally found Yusuke, only to plunge back into hell after losing him again, was excruciating. It felt as though countless poisonous needles were piercing her soul. Regret gripped her throat so tightly she could barely breathe.
She blamed herself all over again. If only she hadn't been greedy. If only she hadn't helped Grayfia. Or better still, if she hadn't insisted on bringing him to the Underworld, none of this would have happened.
Eleonora and Ravel were steadier, their focus on Sona. They were more interested in learning how she had discovered Yusuke's location than sinking into their own pit of frustration and regret. The faster they gained clues, the sooner they could find him.
"Sona-sama, can you tell us how you found Grayfia?" Ravel approached her politely.
Eleonora, meanwhile, turned her attention to the other girls, observing Aika and Murayama with quiet scrutiny.
Venelana remained standing for a moment longer before moving to sit beside her daughter. She placed a hand on Rias's back, stroking it gently as she had when Rias was a child waking from nightmares. "Everything is going to be alright. Don't blame yourself. It's not your fault."
"We already managed to find Yusuke once. We can do it again." She pulled her daughter into a tight embrace. "Believe in me, Rias. I will save him."
"Mother, really?" Rias looked up, her red, tear-filled eyes bright with fragile hope. In her current state, she was willing to believe any comforting lie, and a promise from her mother felt like the purest truth.
"Of course. I promise you, Yusuke will be with us soon, and we will live together forever again." Venelana wiped away her daughter's tears, her smile soft and gentle.
She was burning with impatience and worry. The pain of losing Yusuke a second time, just as she was about to save him, was thousands of times more frustrating than the sensation of reaching out to grasp something, your fingers brushing it, only for someone to abruptly and cruelly snatch it away.
"Being together forever? Does that include you, too?" Suddenly, Rias's emotions changed abruptly. The way she stared at her mother was like a tungsten needle, piercing through to expose her deepest, most hidden feelings.
Though they were not truly hidden, everyone present except Rias had already noticed Venelana's feelings for Yusuke with little effort.
"Rias...I...I..." Venelana stammered, unsure how to answer her daughter's sudden question. Now that things had reached this point, it was obvious her secret obsession with Yusuke would be exposed. Her emotions had been in turmoil recently.
"I am sorry, Rias." She had always felt disgusted with herself and guilty toward her own daughter for harboring such feelings for her son-in-law, but she could not stop.
Her obsession with Yusuke grew uncontrollably with every passing second. Even now, while speaking to her daughter, her devotion and adoration for him continued to rise. Her heart beat for him alone. His existence occupied 90% of her mind, and the remaining 10% was consumed with thoughts of how to save him.
"You too? Why... why is everyone betraying me? You also want to take him from me... mother?" The light in Rias's eyes dimmed. As she kept her gaze locked on her mother's, she began to mumble in a low voice.
First it was Akeno, then Grayfia, and now even her own mother. The people closest to her, the ones she once trusted the most, had betrayed her. Her trust in others had fallen to its lowest point.
"Rias..." Venelana's face visibly grew pale. Her daughter did not scream or thrash about in anger, yet meeting that broken look and those dull eyes was far worse. This was precisely the reason she had always feared revealing her feelings for Yusuke.
"What do you mean, take him from you? Yusuke was never yours to begin with; he is no one's!" Just then, Eleonora's voice interrupted them both.
She glared at Rias and spoke coldly, "Weren't you the one who, just a few days ago, was begging to get Yusuke back? You were begging just to see him safe. Why are you once again trying to act as if you have some imaginary legitimacy over him?"
"You two are not even a thing as far as I know!"
Perhaps because she and Venelana were in the same position, it irritated her to see Venelana reveal such weakness in front of her own daughter. Despite her immense power, she was so indecisive.
Unlike Venelana, the moment Eleonora acknowledged her feelings for Yusuke, she immediately took action. She subdued her rivals, including her own daughter, and cornered her husband so she could openly stand by Yusuke without opposition.
Venelana, on the other hand, had tried to bury her feelings.
"Indeed, Rias, you truly never learn from your mistakes," Sona stopped speaking with Ravel and said, directing a cold, disappointed gaze at Rias.
As a qualified Goudere, she believed it was her duty to assist Yusuke in everything he sought to accomplish. In this case, that meant helping him manage these dangerously obsessive women. Since Venelana was also a yandere, she would naturally try to secure her place within Yusuke's harem. If no one properly guided the situation, it could spiral into disaster if she lost control and became another Grayfia.
"..." This time, Rias was the one who froze. She bit her lip so hard that her teeth pierced her flesh, and blood dripped down from the wound. She lowered her head and pressed her forehead against her mother's chest. "I am sorry, mother."
"I shouldn't hate you for this. I can't because I feel the same. I'm jealous of Sona. I am jealous of Akeno, of the others who enjoyed Yusuke's love and attention. I'm jealous of you. I'm jealous of every second he spends with anyone but me."
Even though she hated this feeling, the thought of imagining a future where she had to share Yusuke with other women filled her with unbearable pain and disgust. Yet, if she had to choose between this agony and the prospect of losing Yusuke entirely, she would accept the pain a thousand times over just to be with him.
"Rias..." Venelana was deeply moved, tears of joy spilling down her cheeks as she hugged her daughter tightly. She shot a grateful glance at Eleonora before turning back to Rias. "Don't cry. I promise we will find Yusuke and get him back."
"Hmm," Rias responded softly.
'Noice!' Sona, Tsubaki, Akeno, Aika, and Murayama all thought simultaneously.
...
Away from all the drama, the dimly lit bedroom deep within Grayfia's new hidden sanctuary glowed with soft violet and pink ambient light. Floating heart-shaped motes drifted lazily through the air, thanks to one of her illusion spells, bathing everything in an almost dreamlike haze.
Grayfia stood at the foot of the wide, silk-draped bed wearing an outfit she had prepared especially for tonight; a black-and-white bunny-girl costume designed to emphasize the lethal curves of her sinful body.
The strapless bodysuit clung tightly, the glossy white fabric straining over her impossibly full breasts, the deep plunge neckline leaving almost nothing to the imagination.
A black bow tie adorned her throat, matching the fluffy black bunny tail above the scandalously short skirt that barely covered the tops of her thighs. Below, long white thigh-high stockings wrapped around her thick thighs, ending in glossy black heels.
Atop her silver hair sat a pair of oversized bunny ears, black on the outside and soft white inside.
Grayfia's crimson eyes gleamed with possessive hunger as she looked down at Yusuke.
"Does Mommy's new outfit please her baby boy?" she whispered in a soft, sultry voice. She turned slowly, giving him a full view of how the costume emphasized her hourglass figure.
Yusuke swallowed hard. "Y-Yeah… it's… wow. You look incredible, Mommy." He lay propped against a mountain of pillows, shirtless, wearing only loose black silk pajama pants that did very little to hide how much her appearance was affecting him, pitching a huge tent.
[Your acting is getting better.] B2 suddenly said.
'Who told you I am acting?'
Grayfia, in a normal outfit, was already dangerously seductive. Now, dressed in a reversed bunny suit, she looked like a devil ready to steal souls.
[...Recently, the rate at which your lower head has been taking over has increased, sperm head! Disgusting cunt!] B2 cursed in disdain before fading away, shutting her senses.
Grayfia's lips curved into a slow, dangerous smile. She climbed onto the bed, crawling toward him on all fours. When she reached him, she straddled his lap without hesitation, pressing her heavy breasts against his bare chest through the thin fabric. The material was so tight and delicate that he could feel every contour.
She cupped his face with both gloved hands, forcing him to meet her burning gaze.
"You've been such a good boy lately," she whispered, leaning in until their lips were barely a breath apart. "Never trying to run, never complaining, and always letting Mommy take care of you." Her tongue darted out to tease his mouth. "Mommy decided you deserve a special reward tonight."
Tonight she was ridiculously horny, which was no different from every day since meeting Yusuke. She wanted to use this moment to reward him for staying in line when she escaped, and once again, she felt certain that her baby boy truly loved her.
Grayfia straightened slightly, arching her back so her breasts thrust forward even more prominently. She brought both hands to the plunging neckline and slowly pulled the fabric apart, baring herself completely to him. Her pale skin shone faintly under the violet lights, her pink nipples already hard.
She shaped her index fingers and thumbs into a perfect heart, pressing the soft, overflowing flesh together until a deep cleavage formed a valley right in front of Yusuke's face.
"Look," she breathed, voice thick with lust and adoration. "All of this… every inch… belongs to you, my baby boy… only you."
Yusuke's breathing grew heavier, his hands rising instinctively to her waist, fingers clutching the fabric as if he couldn't pull away from her bewitching charm and lethal body.
Grayfia leaned forward again, pressing that heart-framed cleavage directly against his face, smothering him in her warm, pillowy softness. She rocked her hips slowly against his lap, grinding down over his cock.
She pulled back to take his lips in a deep, wet kiss, her tongue sliding against his possessively while her free hand guided one of his to squeeze her breast. When she finally broke the kiss, a thin string of saliva connected their lips for a moment before snapping.
Grayfia licked her own lips slowly, eyes half-closed and glowing brighter than ever.
"Now… be a good boy and show Mommy exactly how much you love her new costume."
...
"Huff… huff… huff…"
Five hours later, Yusuke finally finished showing Grayfia just how much he loved her reverse bonny costume. He had pounded her relentlessly, filling all three holes, fucking her so hard that even the Silver-Haired Queen of Annihilation could barely stay conscious, her heavy panting the only sound in the room.
Although Yusuke's powers were sealed, his Physique stats remained fully intact. In terms of defense and endurance, he far outstripped Grayfia. His attacking power might not match hers, but his durability exceeded hers by a wide margin.
He stood naked, his body wet with both their sweat and her own love juices. Stepping down from the bed, he said, "I'll make something for you to eat. You look completely spent."
"Alright, sweetie~!" Grayfia replied, glancing at him with half-closed eyes and a satisfied smile. The gloom she had felt from being exposed had vanished entirely after getting a good fuck from Yusuke, and now seeing him take the initiative to cook for her added an entirely new layer of pleasure.
This was the first time he had done something like this on his own!
Yusuke threw a pajama over himself and walked toward the kitchen. As he moved, he slipped one hand into his pocket and pulled out a small, coin-sized object from his inventory, which appeared instantly in his hand. Three seconds later, he returned it to the inventory and withdrew his hand from his pocket.
At the same time, back at Sona's place, she received a magical signal on the terminal she was holding.
