Chapter 202 Never appear

Ichigo had been waiting for Riser to make his appearance but no matter how long he waited. He didn't show up.

"What took him so long just to arrive here?"

He looked at Rias who was sitting next to him and now reading manga with a relaxed expression.

She even sipped green tea while giggling at the comedic scenes in manga.

He couldn't help but ask her.

"Why is he not here yet? He should have arrived here a long time ago."

Everyone had already gone back to do what they were supposed to do.

Yasaka went back to Yokai city with Kunou. She would come to his house after she finished her job.

Koneko had gone to buy some snacks and might return home late as she had to decide which snack she would eat.

Soifon went back to work at the 2nd division headquarter. She won't be back for a while as the paperwork increases. Even with the help of the clone it still took some time before she could finish them.

Yuzu and Karin had to go to school. They were high school students and attended Kuoh Academy.

Rias stopped reading and thought about it then she said.

"It seemed that my plan was a bit too much for him. He has used every means to try and find me but he still failed. I got information from my clone that he has been visiting many places that I set up but he never comes close to this place as he thought that I won't live in a small house as I am an heir to Gremory house."

Ichigo nodded. He was impressed by her tactic. 

His clone technique was very good and no one could differentiate between the clone and the real one yet.

Except for his family. They could tell him and the clone apart for some reason.

"Okay, I think I should go and do something else. I hope they won't make a mess inside my territory though. Otherwise I have to do my job."

Maybe Riser might not be able to come when it was the time for their duel.

He shook his head. He couldn't do that as his grandfather and mother-in-law had done so much preparation for him.

He will have to show the whole devil community who he was and make sure no one dares to touch his woman.

He also could not waste their effort by snuffing the life out of Riser Phenex before the time.

"I'll go with you. I don't have anything better to do either."

Rias stopped reading manga and went with Ichigo.

He didn't have many things to do as his clones were already doing their job magnificently.

All he had to do was patrol a little bit.

It was better than waiting for someone who might not appear.

…

"How many places did we check?"

Yubelluna asked the informant. He then gave her the answer.

"This place should be the thirteenth my lady."

"And what did you say about where that woman showed up again?"

"About a hundred places, my lady."

Yubelluna heard that and she could only sigh in frustration. They took so much time just to go back and forth from place to place.

And they just finished checking thirteen places. 

It would take a lot longer if they wanted to look at a hundred places.

If they were in the underworld. Searching for someone would be a piece of cake but in the human world. They could not do that.

They couldn't make their move much inside the territory of the Shinigami.

Even now they were observed. 

If they did something unforgivable. They would be dealt with swiftly.

"Why can't you all find her yet! Riser is very angry now!"

Riser yelled at his servants. 

They couldn't find the exact location of Rias because when they saw her. 

She just disappeared in a puff of smoke.

And everyone around her couldn't recognize her as they saw them as different people.

Some said that she was a woman with brown hair and blue eyes. Some said that she was a man with blue hair and green eyes.

And many more so gathering her information was nigh impossible.

Riser almost lost it and it was Yubelluna who had to calm him down. 

Otherwise even with the powerful devil who accompanies him today might not be enough to protect him.

"Why don't we reverse the search my lady?"

The informant suggested. 

He thought that Rias Gremory might have used some kind of illusion base magic to confuse them.

So he suggested that they should reverse search her. 

They should go to the place where they thought she wouldn't go.

That was the basic practice when they wanted to find someone hiding.

Yubelluna thought the same but she could not do anything if Riser didn't want it.

He said that they had to look at every place. 

He said that Rias was from the great noble family so he would never go to any place that the informant suggested.

"So much headache."

Yubelluna wanted to take some meds now.

And as they were talking about how to find Rias Gremory. 

They saw someone who looked like her walking with a young man like they were on a date.

"That should be fake too. That woman is really good at using illusion magic."

Yubelluna shook her head and said she must do whatever it takes to change Riser's mind.

…

Ichigo patrolled around with Rias but in actuality they were just gone on a date with each other.

And as they were walking around. 

They felt like someone was watching them from somewhere.

Ichigo looked at the direction he could feel the gaze come from and he was surprised to see who it was that was looking at them.

"Long time no see, Ichigo-kun. Sorry that I have come to see you so late."

It was Akeno Himejima. She had grown up to be more beautiful and sexier than before. 

She looked at Rias and there seemed to be an electric spark between them.

What happened between them since he went on an expedition in Hueco Mundo?
