Chapter 55

Time passed quickly, and soon the break bell rang, causing the teacher to say goodbye to the class to go to lunch.

The students in the class seemed excited to hear the bell, and many stood up and walked toward Akira and Lavinia who were sitting down.

Soon the two found themselves surrounded by curious students.

"Akira-san, are you a foreigner?"

"Akira-kun, are you single?"

"Akira-kun, you are so handsome!"

"Lavinia-sama, please autograph my notebook."

"My god, Lavinia-sama looked at me!"

That last comment made Lavinia's eyes flutter.

Akira didn't seem to mind the attention of the girls around him, in fact, he already expected something like this to happen, after all Kiba had girls from school chasing him around every corner, so it was normal that he who was naturally better looking than Kiba would have even more girls around him.

Rias seeing the huge amount of girls around Akira, had a resentful look on her face as a red aura threatened to leave his body.

Feeling a chill on his back, Akira turned his eyes slightly.

The moment his eyes met Rias', he shivered.

'Damn, I forgot about her.'

With a silly smile, he pushed the girls around him aside, and went towards Rias who was looking at him resentfully.

"Rias, can we talk?"

Akira asked with a smile, and without waiting for an answer, he pulled her out of the classroom. He ran so fast with Rias that the female students surrounding him had no time to react.

"Huh?" Akeno who was on the other side of Rias' seat, looked up in surprise at Akira's actions. And with a smile on her face, she followed them.

Lavinia also turned away from the students around her, and followed in the direction Akira had run with Rias.

...

Within moments, Akira had already arrived in a secluded area of the Kuoh Academy campus.

"Whew! I didn't expect the girls at this school to be so... Bold."

Akira said as he wiped an invisible sweat on his forehead.

"You seemed to be enjoying the attention of the girls."

Hearing that voice, Akira shivered and turned to Rias with a guilty smile.

"Rias, you should know that I was only being polite."

"Hmph! I don't care." Rias snorted as she turned her face away.

Seeing that Rias still resented him, Akira gave a smile and pulled her into his arms.

"Y-You, let go of me!" Rias exclaimed as she tried to free herself from the embrace.

Seeing that it would be difficult to calm her down, Akira decided to take things a little slower, so he let go of her.

"Hmph!" she huffed again.

"I know you're mad at me, but-"

Akira didn't finish his speech, when he felt a murderous aura lock onto his body and then disappear. Immediately, he went into a state of alertness.

Rias felt Akira's expression change, she thought it was due to her actions and was about to say something, but then, she saw Akira's confused look.

'Was it just my imagination?'

Akira used his power to scan the area, but he didn't sense the presence of anyone near him, of course, he disregarded the presence of Akeno, Lavinia and Sona who were lurking in the distance.

'That assassin's aura...'

His thoughts wandered for some time, until he turned his gaze to Rias.

"Rias, did you feel it just now?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Rias asked confused.

'She didn't feel it? Even if the aura was targeting me, Rias could still feel it, but it seems that wasn't the case.'

To be on the safe side, he turned to the trees and bushes near him, and said, "You girls, come here."

No movement was seen in the trees and bushes. Feeling that he should be more incisive, he said, "If you girls have not come this far, then I will have to pick you up one by one."

The moment he said this, the bushes seemed to move, and soon, Akeno, Lavinia and Sona came out.

"You!"

Rias had a shocked expression when she saw these three people, she immediately knew that they were spying on her.

The three girls who came out of the bushes, stared at each other for a few seconds and blushed with embarrassment, they all tried to hide their auras so as not to be discovered, but unfortunately failed.

Looking at them, Akira asked, "You girls, did you feel a murderous aura just now?"

At that moment, the three girls who were blushing, had a quick change of expression, but soon after they shook their heads.

"I didn't feel anything."

"Same for me."

"Maybe it was your imagination?"

The girls' response, only made Akira more confused. He was sure that he had felt a strong murderous intent in their direction.

Shaking his head, he gave up trying to find out where this murderous intent was coming from. Maybe in the future he would find out who was aiming at him in the dark.

Turning his gaze to the three women who came out of the bushes, he gave a strange smile and said, "So... Why were you guys spying on Rias and me?"

His question made the three girls blush with embarrassment.

Rias who was standing next to him was also looking at the three girls, she didn't mind revealing her relationship with Akira, but it was still strange to be watched.

"That..." Sona couldn't muster the words to explain why she was there.

She realized that Rias and Akira seemed to be in a relationship, so to say that she was there to watch Akira would seem 'wrong'.

Lavinia looked away, and pointed to a tree, "Look at a little bird." With that said, she disappeared.

Akeno seemed the only one with a smile on her face, as she said, "President, I didn't expect you to..." Stopping there, she looked at Rias blushing and then at Akira and continued saying, " To have such a handsome boyfriend."

Akira narrowed his eyes at Akeno's speech, he knew her personality, and being honest, at the moment he had no interest in playing with her. Maybe in the future he might play with her, but right now it was impossible, especially when he still needed to concert his relationship with Rias.

"Since you are here, then let's have lunch together." Akira said.

Rias didn't refuse Akira's offer, but before the two girls could respond, she faced them with a look that said, "If you accept, then we won't be friends anymore."

Feeling Rias' gaze, the two girls gave a smile and refused Akira's proposal as they walked away saying they had things to do.

"Well it looks like it's just us." Akira said with a smile as he gently held Rias' hand.

This time Rias didn't complain and let Akira hold her hand.

"Alright, let's go to lunch."
