10 New

"So you're also a devil."

Sona was talking to me alone as Rias left with Akeno, perhaps they were going to have a talk knowing Akeno.

Why was I alone with Sona? Well She had probably heard the news from her sister that Diehauser was gonna support Sirzechs which was a big piece of news to anyone in the political scenes in the underworld.

Rizevim must be confused now? Well when Uncle visits later I'll tell him something that'll help him but, Ah never mind.

'Naji.'

'Close watch on Rizevim?'

'Yes.'

'Understood.'

"Haru?"

Sona asked as I kept looking at her, I shook my head, Tsubaki soon came and placed the Tea in front of us.

"Yeah, it's kinda wild isn't it?"

Now there must be a burning question why I was speaking comfortably to Sona and also why she was speaking comfortably to me, well its simply because when me and Rias arrived before Akeno dragged her Rias told her the news.

"It is, to be frank with you I've also considered recruiting you when Tsubaki saw you from afar, but when I saw Akeno holding your arm I decided to give up."

"But I'm not in any peerage."

"Really?"

"I'm from the House of Belial and I'm the sole inheritor of my mothers branch so they won't allow it."

"I see, that is a strong clan to be born in."

"Care to play?"

I looked at the chessboard on the side, she raised her eyebrows while I smiled after sipping tea, she had a smug face and nodded, she had never lost but was about to lose today and of course I know what would happen.

We sat in front of each other, I then smiled.

"I take white?"

"Sure."

"E2 to E4 "

"C6 to C7"

"D2 to D4"

The match continued on, I already knew I was gonna win since I blitzed her into oblivion, Sona really was good at chess but I forced her to go on the defensive soon enough and.

"Check."

"I, I lost?"

"You won?'

"No I really lost."

"Yeah, well it's getting late Sona, I'll see you around."

"Wait!"

"Got something to say?"

She looked conflicted, Tsubaki who also knew about the bet looked at me then at Sona.

"I! Did Rias tell you something about me?"

"Nothing why? Well other than that you're a devil nothing else comes to mind and I have good memory too so yeah nothing? I'll be leaving now I still have to go to class I'll catch you later and Invite you to my new house!"

I quickly left as since I don't want to deal with it now but of course I will be collecting her after I'm finished with Rias, collecting seems like a harsh word, but I don't know what else?

"President."

"I know Tsubaki."

"But."

"I'll keep my promise but I don't know how to tell him or Rias."

"It could be the other way around knowing Rias' personality she may even tell Haru if he mentions that he beat you."

"That!"

"Do you want me to contact Akeno and tell Rias of your situation?"

"I can handle it, but."

"I don't think he really knows."

"You think?"

"According to Akeno and from the rumors he's straightforward."

"..."

-

"Uncle! Grandpa!"

I had already told Rias and everyone from ORC they were invited for the houseparty, needless to say they were shocked especially Rias and Akeno, I know they could also pull this off but I too am shocked.

It really is grand, boy they really are guilty.

"Ah Haru, I hope you like the renovation, I called one of the greatest architects from the territory"

Lord Belial, Diehauser's father, my 'Grandfather' smiled as I nodded.

"I really like it Grandpa!"

I have to act like it was a great gift, he really was a loving old man and he loves his family to a fault to which I respect, I know I'm a scumbag for doing this but no ones here to stop me.

"Good, ah the Heiress of the Gremory clan is here, I am pleased to meet you, and thank you for finding my Haru."

"The pleasure is mine."

"Please feel like this is also your home, Well now that I've seen Haru happy and things are finished on this side I'll be leaving now."

'Grandpa' looked at Diehauser, he then took out a black box.

"If ever you decide to be a high class devil, call me and take this."

"Can I make someone else a High Class?"

"Prove to me that your power can stop one first then I'll give you permission, for now as much as I'd like to test your power I am to busy handling the affairs of your engagement to the Gremory."

"Thank you Uncle!"

I took the box from him, I could feel its energy, I'll tweak it later to make it even stronger but who do I choose to be my pawns?

"Grandmother would like to see you come again Haru, she also says she wouldn't mind if you bring a young one too."

"I understand! We'll try our best!"

I took Rias and Akeno's waist and gave them a huge grin, Rias blushed from embarassment while Akeno hugged my arm, Diehauser flinched and Grandpa laughed, they then teleported away.

"Ara~ someone is already claiming me as if I was his."

Because you are?

"Well if I'm going to be engaged to Rias that also means you're going to be mine, might as well claim you as early as now."

"Oh? someone is confident"

"That's still!"

"Just you wait for a month until Uncle Diehauser finishes the politics I'll be telling him that I'll fight! but during that time, teach me magic! I'm a fast learner you know."

And right on cue, Sona had arrived by ringing the doorbell, a butler opened the door, Diehauser did say he will give me a few attendants to clean the house and take care of the housework.

Seriously if I can I would revive Cleria but not now when everything is still going on.

"Welcome Sona!"

I walked over to them I grabbed her shoulder and welcomed her to the house, I could see Tsubaki, Momo, Reya and Tomoe, I all welcomed them with a smile.

While I did this, I noticed a familiar presence, one that felt like Koneko, I looked at the direction and saw a black cat from the opposite house, I tilted my head and waved at the cat, it then waved back.

I looked at Koneko who was touring the house by herself, I called for the butler to show them around the house while they could tour me later, it seemed liked Rias and Sona were talking about something.

I then went outside and summoned a food bowl and placed tuna in it, I looked for the black cat who I know was Kuroka, needless to say she appeared in front of me and then sat in front of me.

"You're a cute one"

I patted her head as she purred.

"Nya!"

"You can come later inside when the people inside are gone, I don't know why I'm talking to you like this but I just don't know if someone has an allergy so I have to confirm it okay?"

"Nya!"

"You're a smart cat."

I patted her head and went back to the room, it looks like I still have to entertain them, I smiled at the cat who was happily eating.

'Everything's falling into place."
