Gilgamesh in DxD

Chapter 64

Chapter 64

There was a moment of silence when Koneko stared at me with confused eyes. I could tell she swallowed a lump in her throat before speaking.

"Idon't understand" Her voice was full of confusion.

"Why don't you talk to Buchou? Surely it would be easier?"

"Because she doesn't deserve it." I said with a firm face.

"She tried to manipulate me and trap me as a slave, and however kind she would treat me if I became a slave, it would still be slavery and manipulation. I've been manipulated, master or not, Ddraig would be mad," I declared and Koneko's eyes widened in mild horror at the mention of Ddraig's anger.

It was true that Ddraig was a very proud dragon. If I died and became Rias' servant, and found out we'd been manipulated, it wouldn't have been pretty. I could barely contain Ddraig's aura of pure hatred that had been directed at Rias for his blatant disrespect and for trying to pretend innocent back then. It's true that he wouldn't hurt anyone, but having to suppress his angry aura would be very irritating and even traumatizing for the targets. I didn't think Rias could be close to me if that had happened.

"I would die...I'm sure of that, but Rias Gremory would die with me. I can guarantee that" I said firmly that even in a state of anger, I would be able to hit Rias Gremory with ease.

"Then why?" Koneko asked again, obviously confused. Why was I apologizing to her but not her master?

"Because I treated you like her." I said softly.

"When I walked into that room, I saw everyone like Rias Gremory, like a devil who tried to manipulate my life. And when I saw your horrified look" I closed my eyes and stopped as Koneko's horror flashed through my mind: "I just I feel sorry for that... I was pretty naive back there. I admit that and what I did to you was wrong"

Koneko looked at me blank-faced, all his fear seemed to vanish. True, she was still cautious, I could tell that, but she was more confused now.

"There are also Akeno-fukubuchou and Kiba... Why me?" She asked again.

"Akeno-san, for some strange reason, gives me a similar vibe to Rias Gremory." I said and then shook my head. "I don't like her... The aura she radiated seemed more obscene and darker than Rias's. I'm not talking about strength, but the nature of her presence..." It was true, Akeno Himejima's aura was more strange than Rias or Sona. It was dark as a devil's, but the corruption she possessed was greater than those two.

It was likely because she was a mix of a fallen angel and a devil. The only aura that surpassed the devil in terms of corruption was that of a fallen angel. They fell from heaven due to being corrupted by sin. Do you think this is absurd? How could a fallen angel be more corrupt than a devil? Simple.

I held back the blush that threatened to come out, that moan clearly It was too hot if you asked me. What? I was a man! A teenager himself! I had hormones that were still raging!

Meanwhile, Asia was openly blushing when she heard Koneko moan.

Koneko, after swallowing the bite, looked at the rest of the cake with sparkles in her eyes, as if that cake were a sacred food. She slowly raised her head to me and there was no longer any sign of fear there but a steady, demanding gaze.

"You have more?" She asked me.

"I'll have to get there first, finish that one if you want another one." I said with a laugh, this girl really was cute! His blank face strangely suited him. Ahh, she was one of those Kuudere types, wasn't she? That was rare, thinking I would find one now.

"Done..."

I blinked when she said this and looked at the box, making my jaw hit the floor. It was empty! It was empty! The cake! Where were you?! Where was the cake?!

"W-what the hell" I muttered with wide eyes and shock. "W-where's the cake?" I asked Koneko right away.

"I ate." Koneko said as she wiped her mouth with a tissue.

"Koneko" I called, my tone solemn and my face grim. "Koneko, the cake had a diameter of 20cm. As in the name of Satan, Odin, God, Zeus and Ophis you ate so fast!" I yelled as I got to the last part, seriously how the hell did she manage to finish the cake so fast?!

Even Mordred can't eat that fast!

"I ate." Koneko repeated, her face and tone remained the same, as if she were talking to a silly child.

"That's not an answer!" I grabbed it. "You you!" I closed my mouth before slapping my face with my palm too hard. I slowly let out a heavy breath and shook my head. "You know what? For my sanity's sake, let's pretend we never had this conversation." I told her in a serious tone and Koneko just tilted her head to the side while her face was still blank.

"OK." She said nonsense before extending a hand expectantly. "More cake?"

"More cake." I nodded solemnly as if I was just receiving the gospel. "Let's go to my house."
