Extra Chapter.
Enjoy.
...
Thanks to Asia's quest rewards, all of his Master profession skills had leveled up. With Master's Exploitation Lv3, he could now choose three skills from each of his Goudere. With Master's Mercy Lv3, he could grant them three different skills. Master's Blessing Lv3 enhanced all of the Gouderes' skills by four levels and boosted their stats by 100%.
It had been a while since Yusuke last took skills from his girls. The last time was when he obtained Akeno's Holy Lightning, but he had barely used it outside of training.
To be honest, he felt a bit excited at the thought of gaining new skills, especially Destruction and Immortality. Those two were extremely powerful and complemented each other well. One covered offense, the other defense.
Setting aside the other girls, whose skills were far less valuable for now, like Isabella, or Yubelluna, Yusuke turned his attention to the more worthwhile options, specifically Rias, Venelana, Grayfia, and Ravel.
Name: Rias Gremory
Age: 18.
Race: Devil.
Personality: Affectionate, Dependable, Righteous, Kind, Loyal.
Hidden personality: Impulsive, Possessive, Insecure, Selfish, Vulnerable to stress.
Skills: Destruction, Magic Control, Leadership, Dancing, Design, Stalking.
Looking through Rias's information, it was more or less what Yusuke had expected, though he was slightly surprised by her 'Design' skill.
Yusuke did not hesitate and immediately chose 'Magic Control.' From the description, this was the Gremory House ability, granting them extremely precise and refined control over their demonic power.
'Hopefully she gets something more interesting in the future,' he thought. Although he could choose up to three skills from each of his yandere girls, it was not worth wasting them on less useful abilities like Dancing or Stalking.
After Rias, Yusuke switched to her mother.
Name: Venelana Gremory.
Age: Don't ask.
Race: Devil.
Personality: Sociable, Gentle, Protective, charismatic.
Hidden personality: Violent, Possessive, Insecure, Paranoid.
Skills: Destruction, Business Management, Leadership, Cooking.
'Violent? Well, I need to keep that in mind,' Yusuke thought, looking up and meeting Venelana's gentle gaze, unable to connect that calm warmth with the word 'Violent', she hid that side of herself far too deep, as the saying went, there were only wrong names, not wrong titles.
No wonder she had been called the Brown-haired Ruin Princess in the past.
He quickly selected the 'Destruction' skill and closed the tab, not wanting to ruin his impression of her this early, 'I didn't see anything, yes, I didn't see anything at all, it was just an illusion, no, it is a system bug, yes, it must be a system bug!' he repeated to himself, almost like hypnosis, as long as he never saw her violent side with his own eyes, she would always remain the gentle, motherly woman he admired, right?!
Right?!!
"Is there something wrong, Yusuke?" Noticing his strange gaze, Venelana asked.
"No, I just want to stare at you like this," Yusuke shook his head and answered with a faint smile.
"Really, saying something this sweet! Kyaah! Yusuke, you are so cute! I love you so much~!" Venelana's eyes widened, her irises turning into pink heart shapes, as she hugged him tighter, squealing like a young girl in love.
"..." Serafall's dark gaze drifted toward her before turning away.
Yusuke moved on to the silver haired milf.
Name: Grayfia Lucifuge.
Age: Don't ask.
Race: Devil.
Personality: Cold, Serious, Calm, Strict, Competitive.
Hidden personality: Extremely Possessive, Obsessive, Paranoid, have a strong respect for the strong, Insecure.
Skills: Secrets of the Natural World, Elemental Magic, Hand-to-hand combat, Management... (click to expand).
Grayfia's skill list was the longest he had seen so far, filled with countless minor skills like house chores, cooking, accounting, politics, and much more, no wonder she was called the Ultimate Queen, it was not only because of her overwhelming strength, with skills like these alone, even if her King was complete trash, she could still carry him to become the greatest King of all time
Yusuke chose only 'Secrets of the Natural World', as for 'Elemental Magic', Akeno also had that skill, and he had already taken it from her a few months ago
Name: Eleonora Stolas.
Age: Don't ask.
Race: Devil.
Personality: Kind, Gentle, Highly Intelligent.
Hidden personality: Cunning, Overbearing, Obsessive, Arrogant.
Skills: Bird Control, Management, Fire Magic, Wind Magic.
Turning to the last milf, Yusuke noticed that all three women around him were skilled in management; it seemed to be a standard for a noble wife to support her husband.
Unlike the other two, Eleonora's skill set was less impressive. After a quick look, Yusuke chose 'Bird Control', perhaps if he raised it to the highest level in the future, he might even control a divine bird like a true Phoenix.
Once done with her mother, Yusuke glanced at Ravel's skills.
Name: Ravel Phenex.
Age: 16.
Race: Devil.
Personality: Modest, Intelligent, Perceptive.
Hidden personality: Obsessive, Masochist, Scheming, Arrogant.
Skills: Immortality, Fire, Wind, Management, Strategizing.
Yusuke did not have much interaction with Ravel or the other Phenex ladies, so he was slightly surprised to find that Ravel was a hidden masochist. Was this the cliché noble lady who dreamed of being trampled by her shining knight, or perhaps she preferred being trampled by her own servant or slave?
Hmm, immortality and masochism sounded like a dangerous combination; maybe her brother was the same, considering how he seemed to enjoy letting others hit him while laughing arrogantly.
Yusuke chose the skill 'Immortality' and closed the tab.
[...] B2.
'What?' Yusuke asked.
[Nah, nothing.] B2 replied.
'How weird,' Yusuke shrugged and turned his attention to Koneko.
Name: Koneko Toujou.
Age: 16.
Race: Devil/Youkai.
Personality: Cold, Quiet, Serious, Loyal.
Hidden personality: Insecure, Obsessive, Glutton, Violent.
Skills: Senjutsu, Touki, Hand-to-Hand combat, gaming.
There were no surprises in her personality traits or skills; Yusuke quickly chose Senjutsu.
Touki was also a very useful skill, but from what Yusuke knew, those trained in Senjutsu could already use Touki by controlling their "base of life", in other words, their own life force, so choosing Touki would be a dumb decision and a waste of a skill slot.
'Well, that is it for now,' Yusuke felt quite satisfied after gaining more skills. Then, a thought crossed his mind; if he managed to gather yanderes from each of the 72 Pillars and the Extra Demons, would that not mean he could take all of their skills as well?
Of course, that was just wishful thinking; there was no way he wanted to deal with that many women at the same time, not to mention that most of those clans had already gone extinct long ago
As for the others, like Yubelluna, Xenovia, Irina, and Isabella, none of them had any skills useful to him right now; it would be better to wait until they gained or learned something more powerful in the future.
Asia, on the other hand, still had a low submission value, only at the Dependent level, so he could not take any of her skills. Not that she had anything useful for him right now anyway, aside from her Sacred Gears, which were not considered skills.
[Asia Argento's submission: 82 (Dependent)]
'Yeah, right... It is about time to pull the same trick, hehe!' Yusuke suddenly thought. He slipped his hand free from Rias's grip and lightly pulled her cheek, making the busty redhead glance at him in confusion. "Yusuke?"
"Did you not always want to get my skills and blessing?" he asked with a smile.
"Really? Can I?! Can I really have it too?!" Rias almost jumped from her seat in pure excitement, grabbing onto Yusuke as she spoke, her voice trembling. It was not the thought of gaining more power that thrilled her, that barely even crossed her mind. What truly mattered to her was something else entirely!
When Akeno, Sona, and Tsubaki received Yusuke's skills and blessing, she had wanted the same, but Yusuke had told her he could only grant them to those who truly loved him. Those words had struck her like a heavy punch to the chest. How could anyone possibly love Yusuke more than she did?
That had been a heavy blow for her.
After all, what kind of yandere could possibly accept the idea that someone else might love the person they are obsessed with more than they did? Or worse, to be told by that very person that her love was somehow lacking compared to others?
Ever since then, Rias had been brooding over it; she was convinced Yusuke was just making shit up.
On top of that, the thought of having Yusuke's power inside her felt like holding a piece of him, something she would trade anything to obtain.
"Yes, you can," Yusuke said, his hand gently caressing her face, his voice soft and soothing, "I can feel your sincere love for me right now."
He found her reaction somewhat cute; if only she had been like this from the start, everyone would have been happier. He told her the list of all his skills and added, "You can even choose three skills."
'Hehehe~! I knew it! I knew it! I love Yusuke just as much as everyone else! He must have forgiven me! Otherwise, why would he give me something so precious?!'
Rias's eyes rolled halfway up, her lips parting as hot breath slipped out, her body trembling intensely as if she were having a mind-breaking orgasm. No, she was truly having a mental orgasm from the mere thought of having a part of Yusuke inside her.
'Yusuke is so cute! So beautiful and perfect, he can even forgive someone as worthless as me! Ah~! I love you! I love you, Yusuke! I love you so, so much, I am about to go crazy from this love!'
'No… I've already gone completely crazy for you…!'
"Rias! Get yourself together!" Venelana's face twisted when she saw her daughter making a face that looked like an ahegao in front of everyone, and she slapped the back of her head.
"..." Clarity returned to Rias's gaze as she wiped the drool from her lips and said, "I want Observation Haki, Fire Dragon Slayer Magic, and the Ascendant Form."
