Chapter 394: You don’t need to explain, I know!
Chapter 394: You don't need to explain, I know!
The girl didn't realize her mother had been eaten by him, Eiji felt a little guilty. So he reached out his hand to hold her hand.
Yui who was originally talking cheerfully about random things about school with Eiji while walking was stunned.
They were holding hands!
"Eiji, why are you holding my hand?"
"We're friends, it's only natural that we go to school hand in hand, right Yuigahama?"
Eiji said that in a tone that sounded reasonable.
Yui blushed, she wanted to argue. It's true that holding hands is a natural thing for friends to do, but if it's done by the opposite sex with similar ages and one of them already has a girlfriend or many girlfriends and fiancées...
That's not natural at all.
Yui felt that Eiji just wanted to use her!
Just like that boy did to Yukino, could he be interested in her too?
[Yui Yuigahama +1]
If that was true, what should she do? Yui was confused and didn't try to let go of Eiji's big hand that was squeezing her small hand.
By the way if any Kuoh Academy students saw them walking like this, they would misunderstand and think she had joined Eiji's harem.
This was embarrassing.
Even so—
"Just call me Yui, isn't it a bit difficult to keep calling me by my long last name? A-After all, as you said, we're friends and my friends also often call me Yui." Yui said a little nervously, her gaze fixed on Eiji's face against the background of the housing estate and the cherry blossoms flying from the trees they passed.
Although Eiji was a bastard, a good bastard who had many women.
Yui had to admit this man was too handsome! At this moment, just looking at his face from this angle, she couldn't help but let her heart beat uncontrollably.
This scene suddenly reminded her of a plot in the popular romance novel titled "The Metronome in Love" written by Utako Kasumi-sensei which she read two days ago due to Miura's recommendation.
Yui did not expect that she would feel what the heroine experienced on the journey with the protagonist!
Yui didn't know she herself was the heroine.
She could somewhat understand why Yukino was willing to join his harem and share a man with another woman.
Yui wondered if she could also do the same? She immediately shook her head.
'No, Yui! What are you thinking? Eiji is Yukinon's boyfriend!'
While Yui shook her orange-colored head.
Eiji asked Miss System.
'Miss System, did I enter the Friend Zone?'
[How about you confess to her, say "I like you, sleep with me". That way your problem is solved and we'll save time and brain cells!]
'Miss System, are you crazy? You don't understand what the ABC steps in love are.'
[.....]
It's not that I don't understand, but if that's coming from the mouth of you who ate that girl's mother last night without the ABC steps or whatever you read in those novels. I doubt it.
Miss System complained.
Should she confide in her neighbor? That silver-haired loli? Forget it.
Leme: "...."
She was engrossed in watching her king's romantic comedy.
"Okay I'll call you Yui when we're together."
"Why only when we're together?"
"Because one of my girlfriends also has the first name Yui. I'm sure you know her, she is the head of moral discipline at school, Yui Kotegawa."
"...."
Yui remembered the beautiful dark-haired girl who often scolded unruly students and confiscated the belongings of students who were not allowed to bring to school.
That girl turned out to be one of Eiji's girlfriends?
She only found out now!
Still, what Eiji said made her lips twitch. So that was the reason why he had been calling her Yuigahama all this time?
Suddenly she was a little envious of Yui Kotegawa.
Looking at Yui who was pouting but not trying to remove her hand from his grasp, Eiji smiled because it was a good thing even though compared to her mother, this girl was quite difficult.
I can only say this is the heroine who became Yukino's rival in the original work.
As the school gate was already visible in the distance, a familiar red-haired girl emerged from the turn and walked past them.
The girl quietly whispered to him, "Meet me behind the old school building during lunch break."
Who else if not Lilith?
And this scene was almost the same as when the girl deliberately passed by the protagonist of the original work on the street to tell him something.
[We're classmates, why not talk in class? Lilith deliberately passed by me and whispered like she did to protagonist Arata. Does she like using tricks like this to seduce a guy? I admit it's quite effective.]
Lilith who had just passed Eiji almost stumbled when she heard what the boy was thinking.
Who seduced you?!
Still, how did Eiji know she had done something similar to Arata? Oh right he did know a lot from the original work.
After hearing Eiji's many inner voices since she came to this world with her ability, Lilith roughly knew Eiji like a prophet who knew a person's past and future. Not everyone, but people who were called heroines and protagonists and people who had something to do with them were definitely known to her.
And her, she seemed to be one of the heroines of the franchise called Trinity Seven and Arata was the protagonist.
Lilith didn't believe it at first, but after hearing Eiji know she had whispered in the same way to Arata in the past, she was even more convinced.
"...." Because she stopped walking to think about all that, she belatedly noticed Eiji's handsome face that was now right in front of her face.
Lilith froze.
"Yo Lilith, I called you from earlier but you seem to be busy thinking about something with that face."
"Ah!"
Lilith finally reacted, she shouted and stepped back. Her pretty face looked surprised, she didn't expect that instead of continuing to walk with the girl who walked with him to school like Arata did.
Eiji didn't do the same, he didn't follow the script to ignore her who had been noisy at him and instead got in her way.
Standing not far behind Lilith, Yui who saw how surprised the girl was because Eiji was curious about her identity. But whoever it was, she was a pretty girl and Yui wouldn't be surprised if Lilith was also one of Eiji's girlfriends.
"Did I surprise you?" Eiji asked with an amused smile.
Lilith was slightly annoyed and said, "Yes! Of course, Eiji-kun. Next time you shouldn't suddenly bring your face close to a woman's face."
"I understand Lilith, I also heard what you said earlier and will come. Just... I didn't expect a student who just transferred to our school like you to think of me, it would be rude if I immediately refused." Eiji said with hidden meaning in his words.
Put aside Yui who thought Eiji was wooing Lilith.
Lilith herself was confused, but she was happy to hear that the boy was willing to come to the place he said later.
She smiled politely. "That's good, then I'll see you later Eiji-kun."
Then Lilith was about to walk past Eiji but the boy put his hand on her shoulder which made her flinch.
"Wait Lilith."
Not only calling her name in such a familiar way even though they weren't that close.
Eiji also dared to touch her!
This shameless act was no less or perhaps more than Arata.
Lilith complained in her heart with slightly flushed cheeks. A little secret, her body was quite sensitive when touched by the opposite sex which made her immediately break away from Eiji's touch.
"W-What else?"
"It's nothing it's just that aren't you also going to school?"
"Yes."
"You're walking in the wrong direction."
"...."
Eiji said with a strange look.
[Don't tell me you want to take a detour just to seduce me? How cute, Lilith.]
The heroines:
Last night this guy seduced a widow and managed to eat her.
Shortly after that, this morning he already has another target!
Many heroine are numb, they don't bother to comment on Eiji's narcissism because it's a common thing. But Lilith who had recently heard Eiji's inner voice was not used to it at all.
'I said I'm not hitting on you!'
Being misunderstood like this made Lilith embarrassed and wanted to refute what Eiji was thinking. Unfortunately she just found out there was a rule that made her unable to say anything that risked telling Eiji that she could hear his inner voice.
So Lilith just opened and closed her mouth before swallowing her words. Of course, she was surprised that there was a rule just like this that made her sure Eiji didn't know his inner voice was heard.
That meant what Eiji said in his inner voice was true!
"You'd better go to school with us, Lilith." Eiji grabbed her hand and pulled her to Yui's position.
"Eh no, I..."
Lilith wanted to refuse, but in the end she had to go to school with Eiji and what was even more embarrassing— not only was Eiji holding her hand, he was also holding Yui's hand.
The two girls were holding hands on a boy.
The students who saw them on the street were dumbfounded. One of them was Miura and her friend, Ebina.
"That... isn't that Yui? She's holding hands with Eiji?!" Miura said in surprise, especially when she saw one of her orange-haired friends blushing but not rejecting.
On the other side, Ebina had a somewhat incoming smile on her face. The girl with glasses said something that made Miura blush.
"Hoho before Yukinoshita, now Yui! The Demon King was unstoppable, his hands clawing at every pretty girl in the school. That red-haired girl must be the rumored transfer student, she's beautiful and sexy. No wonder the Demon King is interested in eating her. Miura, you're pretty too, it's good to prepare from now on."
"What nonsense are you talking about! Ebina, stop saying perverted things!"
Miura immediately silenced the bespectacled girl's mouth and dragged her to the school gate.
But speaking of Eiji, she couldn't help but remember the scene in the service club room where the boy fucked Yukinoshita Yukino!
To be honest Miura often recalled that scene, especially at night which made her naturally think of the shape and size of Eiji's penis that was going in and out of Yukino's hole.
Despite already having a boy she liked, Hayato from the same class as her. She felt guilty for Hayato because she played alone in her bedroom several times while thinking about another boy's penis.
She wanted to stop thinking about those images but it was hard.
...
After Eiji and the two girls arrived at school, he had no other choice to let go of their soft hands.
Yuigahama went to her class and Lilith went to the same class as him. However, the latter did not dare to walk too close to him until she ran into the class which made Lala and some of his girls who happened to be on their way to class wonder if he had done something perverted to the red-haired girl?
"How is that possible? We were just holding hands."
"That counts as a pervert, Eiji!" Yui whose black hair was beautiful as usual reprimanded him.
"Really? But we do it quite often." Eiji teased the girl.
Sure enough, Yui immediately blushed and glared at him. "Lilith-san is different, she's not your girlfriend."
[Should I say it was only a matter of time?]
The heroines including Yui fell silent.
Who was the protagonist in the same franchise as Lilith? Arata? Boy was that pathetic.
They knew sooner or later another protagonist would get the green hat.
"Put that aside. Le Fay, are you studying here now?" Eiji changed the subject before they went to their respective classes.
Last night he didn't go home so this was the first time he saw Le Fay since the last time they met, if I'm not mistaken it was three months ago.
Last night he only knew that the girl came to his house to meet with Meredith and restore their friendship. The witch girl was also staying at his house on Jeanne's suggestion which made him give a thumbs up to his maid.
It was Grayfia who told him this information via E-Dial when he was busy exercising with Mrs. Yuigahama.
"Yes Eiji-san, it's nice to see you again and I'm sorry that I stayed at your house last night without your permission. I am indeed attending school here from now on as an international transfer student."
Le Fay who was one of the blonde beauties in Highschool DxD spoke politely and gracefully. Although her figure was clad in the uniform of Kuoh Academy, she was wearing a small robe that covered half of her back and a large blue hat on her head.
If it was any other girl, Yui who was the head of moral discipline in the school would definitely confiscate Le Fay's robe and hat.
"I see... It's fine, stay in my house as much as you want, Le Fay."
"Is that okay? I can rent a house around here."
"No, no. Don't waste your money on unnecessary things, it's better to stay in my house because it's free. Not only that, Meredith will also be happy if you stay there for a long time."
Eiji kindly said to the witch girl. He did so without noticing Lala's smiling gaze and the flat stares of the other girls.
The girls knew it wasn't just Meredith who would be happy if Le Fay lived in the same house as them, but Eiji— you would be very happy too, right?
Le Fay was a beautiful girl and probably one of the heroine because she could also hear the inner voice that she herself admitted to them last night.
So this guy would definitely treat her very well.
Le Fay didn't know Eiji as much as the girls who were now gathered around him, she was touched to hear what the boy said and thought he was very kind despite being a pervert.
"Then I will trouble you, Eiji-san. Please take good care of me."
"Un, I will take very good care of you Le Fay."
...
School hours went on as usual. Le Fay who heard what Eiji said in the corridor earlier was very happy before going to her class.
She was a first year student and the reason why she was able to transfer to Kuoh Academy so quickly was due to the help of the student council president, Sona.
Sona naturally already considered Le Fay as one of her sisters after the girl stayed at Eiji's house last night and knew Eiji was interested in her, so she gave her special treatment.
It was now at lunch break.
At the west corner of the Kuoh Academy High School division was an old school building. This was a completely different building from the Occult Research Club building that Rias and her peerage used as their headquarters.
The reason why the building wasn't renovated even though the school wasn't short of money was to make the scenery around Rias' club look creepy.
In the past, Rias had begged Sona to ignore the old buildings around her Club. Sona was successfully persuaded by the girl.
Now Eiji was here, behind a building filled with vines and a large area of grass.
He looked at Lilith who was standing not far in front of him in clothes that were not school uniforms and had a small black hat on top of her head.
Eiji remembered in the original work it was an outfit called Magus Mode belonging to the girl herself.
It made her look more professional and sexy.
"Did I keep you waiting long, Lilith? I had lunch with Lala and some girls in class before coming here."
Eiji said with an apologetic smile even though he did it on purpose.
Lilith's lips twitched, she had been waiting here for over 15 minutes! She didn't expect Eiji to have lunch with his girlfriends first.
Although it was natural since it was lunch break.
But...!
This was the first time Lilith who had taken the initiative was made to wait by a man.
"It's only 15 minutes, it's fine Eiji-kun. I have other more important things to discuss with you, I'm sure you already know my true identity. Would you-" Before Lilith finished her words.
Eiji interrupted her and what he said left the girl dumbfounded.
"I agree Lilith, let's go on a date."
"...?"
"You don't have to say it, I know you want to confess to me, right?"
"Huh? I..."
"There's no need to be ashamed to admit it Lilith!" Eiji continued to interrupt Lilith who looked very confused and said loudly until some bystanders who were hiding heard him.
"Ever since you transferred to this school, you've been leering at me. Not only in class, but wherever I go except the toilet and my house, you observe me. Sometimes you see me from a distance and use your magic to eavesdrop on my conversations with girls."
"T-That...! Eiji-kun-" Lilith lost her grace, now she looked panicked, embarrassed, and wanted to cry for being caught stalking.
She did it purely to see what kind of person Eiji was.
This definitely had nothing to do with that boy's misunderstanding!
But Eiji was... he kept interrupting her.
"You don't have to explain it Lilith!"
"No, Eiji. Listen to me-"
"To like me even after you know I have many women, Lilith... You moved me."
I don't care! Whether you're moved or not, I don't care! Lilith screamed in her heart, she wanted to go crazy.
Should I shoot this boy?
"Don't worry even though I have many women, they are all my fiancées and girlfriends, and I am not a playboy as the rumors say. All the women in my harem have good relationships and accept each other! Lilith, don't believe what those people who are jealous and spiteful of me say."
I almost believed it! Lilith actually just found out this information, she took notes but who cares about that?!
She didn't come here for that!
Eiji chuckled, he looked at Lilith gently. With his good looks and maximum charm that penetrated the atmosphere, even Lilith who saw his smile became dazed.
The girl found it difficult to speak.
As expected of me.
[Host... I don't know what to say.]
