Before I could answer, Asia suddenly took a deep breath, her cheeks burning bright red. "...Just... Rias-san is unfair!" she said, her voice trembling but determined.
"The early bird gets the worm. I learned it in my battle against Akeno."
Before either of us could react, Asia took a few steps forward, closed her eyes, and—
Chu.
She kissed me.
It was brief, soft, and completely innocent, but it hit me like a thunderbolt. My entire body froze. My brain short-circuited. I could feel her trembling lips barely pressed against mine before she quickly pulled back, face crimson and eyes wet.
"Asia…" I whispered.
"I-I just wanted to be fair…" she said, looking down shyly.
Rias blinked in surprise, her expression unreadable for a moment—then a mischievous smile spread across her lips.
"Ara, ara~ Asia, you've gotten bold," she teased. "But you know, I can't just let you win so easily."
"Eh? Win?!" Asia squeaked.
Rias didn't answer. Instead, she leaned in suddenly and captured my lips again.
Her kiss was the complete opposite of Asia's—hot, demanding, full of confidence. She tilted her head slightly, her tongue brushing against my lips just enough to make my pulse spike. My hands clenched the bedsheet unconsciously.
When she finally pulled back, she smirked. "There. That's what it means to kiss with intent."
"R-Rias-san!" Asia stammered, her face turning redder than ever. "Then… I-I'll…!"
Before I could stop her, Asia leaned forward again and kissed me—this time a bit longer, trembling but firm.
"Asia—"
"Not done yet," Rias interrupted, pulling me toward her for another kiss.
At this point, it was practically a war.
First Rias. Then Asia. Then Rias again. My head was spinning, my heart pounding like crazy, and all I could think was *I'm not surviving this.*
Finally, I placed my hands gently on both their shoulders. "Enough!" I said firmly. "Please. My soul's about to leave my body if this keeps up."
They both looked at me, one blushing furiously, the other smirking like a cat.
I sighed, trying to calm my racing heart. Then, leaning forward slightly, I placed a small peck on Rias's lips.
Her eyes widened just a little, a faint blush coloring her cheeks.
Then I turned to Asia and did the same—just a gentle, short kiss on her lips.
Her breath hitched, and she stared at me with wide, shining eyes.
"There," I said softly. "Now we're even, okay? No fighting."
Asia shyly nodded, her face still red. Rias, on the other hand, looked smug but oddly content.
I lay back on the bed and exhaled deeply. "Now… let's sleep before you two decide to start round two."
Rias chuckled softly, lying beside me with her head resting on my shoulder. "Mmm… fine. But next time, I'm not holding back."
Asia settled quietly on my other side, whispering, "Good night, Ise-san…"
I smiled faintly, feeling the warmth of both of them beside me.
"Yeah… good night, both of you."

The next day after school.
I was standing on the ground floor of the old school building's room that had been made the "Sealed classroom".
Everyone from the club was gathered. Even from the outside, this room was securely closed so we couldn't see inside of the room. What was it used for, the explanation was without exception. Well, at least I know what it is for.
The other Bishop-----. For a long time, it was a mystery club member. Since I know about him, Only for Asia, he is mystery. Likewise, except for newcomer Xenovia, the rest of the members knew about it.
He existed before I became a devil but, due to various circumstances—because he is afraid—he couldn't participate in the Rating Game between the Phoenix household and the battle against Kokabiel.
I am not going to lie, If he can use his ability without fear then he can be most powerful members of Rias's peerage.
Like come on, that dude can literally kill someone while they are frozen in time. They didn't even know how they died.
OP. Literally OP.
