22 Chapter 22

Inside the Akeno former house

We see the corpses of the other men who entered the house, they where either decapitation or stab in heart by Akenos father Baraqiel. All them are wearing Noh mask the same with the mask man who killed Shuri.

As we approached the scene of the murder, Akeno's emotions began to overwhelm her, and couldn't hold back any longer. With tears welling up in her eyes, she run towards the scene, her expression filled with anguish. me and Rias hurriedly follow after her.

Upon arrival, the heartbreaking sight of Little Akeno clinging to her mother's lifeless form pierced their hearts. Little Akeno looked up, her eyes filled with confusion and sorrow as she noticed their presence.

"Who are you guys?" she asked, her voice tinged with uncertainty as she sniffled and wiped her nose.

Though no words were exchanged, Akeno stepped forward, drawn by an instinctual need to comfort her younger self. With gentle arms, she enveloped Little Akeno in a warm embrace, pressing her close against her chest.

"It's okay, it's okay" Akeno murmured softly, her voice a soothing melody amidst the chaos. She began to pat Little Akeno's head tenderly, offering reassurance in the face of overwhelming grief. Gradually, the tension in Little Akeno's frame began to ease, her breathing slowing as she allowed herself to be comforted.

But before Little Akeno could gather herself enough to speak, I interjected.

I glanced at Rias by my side, silently conveying my request. "Erase her memory of meeting us and make her sleep" I instructed. Rias nodded in understanding and moved towards Little Akeno, preparing to cast the spell. However, before Rias could complete the incantation, Little Akeno had already succumbed to exhaustion and fallen into a deep slumber.

Observing Little Akeno's sudden sleep, Rias decided to only erase her memory of encountering them, sparing her from further distress. "What she experienced tonight caused too much stress for her" Rias explained with a worried tone, her concern evident for the sleeping girl. I and Akeno nodded in agreement, understanding the necessity of protecting Little Akeno's mental well-being.

With a comforting pat on Akeno's shoulder, I reassured her with a smile. "She will recover from this, or perhaps she already has" he remarked optimistically. Winking at Akeno, I added, "Come, let's resurrect your mother now" prompting them to focus on the task at hand

I knelt before the corpse of Shuri, my movements deliberate as I began to use replicate ability of the door pathway . Akeno couldn't suppress her curiosity, questioning, "Why did you create another body?" Her inquiry hung in the air, awaiting Oreki's response.

However, before I could offer an explanation, Rias interjected, her eyes widened with a hint of blush coloring her cheeks. "You're going to resurrect both of the Shuris and add one of them to your harem" she speculated, her tone a mix of amusement and incredulity.

Akeno's cheeks flushed at Rias' suggestion, her mind racing to comprehend the implications. "So that's why you want to kill my father so badly, because I'm not enough for you, so you want my mother too" she concluded, her shock evident in her expression as she turned to look at me.

Rias, seizing the opportunity to add to the playful banter, fueled the fire with an even more absurd conclusion. "Are you going to kill my father to get to my mother?" she asked, shaking her head in mock disappointment while envisioning the unlikely scenario of her father meeting his demise at my hands

"Timeout, girls, both of your imaginations are running wild right now" I intervened, gesturing the timeout sign with my hands. Turning to them with a serious expression, I continued, "Although I would love to have an oyakodon in the future with anyone."

My reply only seemed to fuel their imaginations further. Rias and Akeno exchanged glances, their cheeks tinged with a blush as they reached a mutual understanding.

Observing their reactions, I couldn't help but reach the same conclusion. "Woah woah woah, okay, that's just too fa," I interjected firmly, a hint of embarrassment coloring my tone. "I am not going to do that to my future daughters and you guys" I clarified, emphasizing the seriousness of my statement.

Akeno, still blushing, retorted, "We didn't even say it, and you already know it, you pervert."

With a slight blush of my own, I responded, "I don't care" pausing briefly before continuing, "Stop imagining stuff, okay? Stop it! If you can't, get some help."

Akeno and Rias nodded in agreement, but it was evident that they couldn't help but continue imagining a future oyakodon they would share with their respective daughters.

I then turn to one of the Shuri corpse and work my magic.

I reversed time for Shuri, allowing her to return to the moment just before her death. Despite possessing the miracle invoker wish granting ability, I opted not to use it, just using it for power up or more stupid stuff..

As Shuri began to twitch, showing signs of returning to life, I quickly instructed Akeno to cast a sleep spell on her mother. This ensured that Shuri would remain unconscious.

With the spell in place, Shuri's body settled into a peaceful slumber, giving her a chance to rest and recuperate from the ordeal she had just endured.

I then turn to the mask man and revive him too.

The mask man, regaining consciousness, looked around in confusion and questioned if he was in hell. With a smirk, I assured him that he wasn't there yet but would soon find himself in such a place. After patting his shoulder, I swiftly took his heart, leaving him stunned.

As the man watched his own beating heart in my hands, he could only manage a bewildered "Wha.." before I mercilessly crushed it, without a hint of remorse.

"Oh I'm sorry did ask something" I apologized for interrupting his question, feigning innocence as I clasped my hands together. 

Rias, observing my actions, looked at me with a mix of confusion and concern before saying "Oreki he's already" reminding me that the man was already dead.

"Not for long" I then graft the mans death at the time I revived the man and creating a loop to where every time the man died. he will comeback alive like Subaru but this case the mask man won't have time for a character development.

As the mask man, pale and terrified, questioned our identities, I maintained a charming smile. "There's no harm in answering that" I replied with a pause, savoring the moment before continuing, "I'm Lucifer Morningstar." the mask man was about to say something but I beat him to it "Yes, the devil, the one only"

Turning my attention to Akeno, I gestured for her to take action. "Akeno-chan, if you will" I said, standing up and walking over to Rias while Akeno approach the mask man to kill him again and again until Akeno is satisfied.

Rias turn to look at Oreki then ask "Why do you always pretend that you're a devil".

I stared at Rias then explain to her " FIrst of it's not a devil, it's The Devil and the reason I'm pretending to be The devil is because he is charming cunt that I want to imitate".

"So correct if I'm wrong, you're not talking about my brother or the original lucifer for that matter right?". Rias said and stared at me for confirmation.

Oreki nodded " Don't worry too much, you'll meet him in the future." I then brought out a couch and urged Rias to sit while they wait for Akeno to finish

As Akeno carried out her revenge, she killed the man in various gruesome ways. From slashing his neck to severing his genitals, she made him bleed out slowly and painfully. At times, she meticulously removed his fingers and toes one by one. However, her final act of vengeance was skewering the man from his ass, causing him to suffer a slow and agonizing death. 

After Akeno expressed her satisfaction, she walked back to where me and Rias were sitting. "I'm satisfied already, Oreki-san, you can kill him permanently" she said with a smile as radiant as a blooming flower.

I nodded in acknowledgment and glanced at Akeno's clothes, which were stained with blood. Without hesitation, I reversed the flow of time around Akeno, causing the bloodstains to vanish, leaving her attire clean once more.

As I approached the man who had been revived again, the man looked at me with pleading eyes. "Please just kill me now, I don't want to suffer anymore" he begged me, tears streaming down his face and snot dripping from his nose.

I smiled calmly at the man. "Well, you did ask for it, so I will grant it to you" I replied with an almost angelic demeanor, which seemed to bring a sense of relief to the man.

I then removed the loop and created a barrier around the man. As the barrier slowly began to shrink, the man's panic escalated. "Please, not like this!" he cried out, futilely punching at the barrier in a desperate attempt to escape.

"Let me out!" the man pleaded as the pressure from the shrinking barrier caused his bones to crack and blood to flow over his body, his agony evident.

The barrier continued to shrink relentlessly until it was no larger than the size of a palm, sealing the man's fate within its confines.

I looked at the cube filled with blood and decided to dispose of it. I threw it outside, away from the scene.

Then, I picked up the sleeping Shuri gently. Turning to Rias and Akeno, I said, "Let's go back to our time."

Inside the ORC room, Present time.

Arriving at the orc room with Akeno and Rias, we were greeted by a students laying, with Sona and Tsubaki bound

"Rias, Akeno what are the both of you doing, why are you with him" Sona question both of them.

However before any of them can answer I interjected confidently, "I will be their future fiancée. Well, to be exact, Akeno already agreed with me, and as for Rias, I am just waiting for her wish."

Sona's gaze shifted between Akeno and Rias as she asked the question to confirm my statement: "Is this true, Rias, Akeno?"

Rias and Akeno both nodded in confirmation.

Sona frowned as she raised another concern: "What about Riser?" She reminded Rias about her engagement with Riser Phenex, which had not yet been addressed.

Rias answered with confidence and a smile: "I will handle that, well technically Oreki will help me handle that." Rias glanced at me, who was still carrying Shuri.

"I'm not going to ask, but I hope you can tell me after this," Sona said with a hopeful look on her face.

Rias and I exchanged a glance, and I encouraged Rias to explain further in the future. This resulted in Rias hugging me and expressing her gratitude before saying, "Thank you."

I then retrieved a couch from his pocket dimension and placed Shuri on it. Akeno provided Shuri with a lap pillow, indicating her intention to wait for her mother to wake up and surprise her.

Meanwhile, Rias checked on the condition of her peerage members.

Yoruichi approached me and asked, "Did you get what you wanted?" She glanced at Rias and Akeno, who were currently tending to Shuri. Yoruichi was aware of my desire to build a harem, and it seemed she thought I had successfully won over Rias and Akeno.

"Yes, I did" I replied, looking at the time before continuing, "I think it's time for my warm-up exercise, but before that..." I walked over to the unconscious Yuuto Kiba and held out my right hand, stealing Kiba's Sword Birth sacred gear. I held the sacred gear in my right hand and replicated it with my left hand, creating a copy. I then grafted the original sacred gear onto Kiba's soul, while I grafted the copy onto his own soul.

I tested the sacred gear by creating the Yamato sword from Devil May Cry. After swinging it lightly, he dematerialized it.

I then replicated Rias, surprising her, and did the same to Sona, who were also taken aback.

"What are you going to do with our clones?" Rias asked me, looking at the exact replicas of themselves, which stood with their eyes closed and no soul.

I created the Yamato sword again and beheaded the replicas, causing the girls to gasp in surprise and hold their necks.

I then placed all three heads of the replicas into my inventory and destroyed the remaining bodies entirely.

"I will be going then" Oreki said, creating a door and passing through it.
