30 Chapter 30: The Little Shit

Hyoudou Residence.

Alex sat on a sofa in the living room while Miki (Miss Hyoudou), served some tea. "It's good to see that your back from your trip safe and sound Alex," she said to Alex, sitting opposite him on another sofa while enjoying her own cup of tea.

After leaving his house Alex decided to pay Gorou and his wife Miki a visit since he hasn't seen him since he went to hell or the underworld as it is truly called but Alex prefers calling it Hell.

"Thank you", Alex thanked her for the tea, taking a sip, "delicious. It has been a while, Miki, hows Garou doing and congratulations on the boy, I know its a bit late".

"Oh Garou is still at work while, Issei, our son he's playing at friends," Miki said. "Your not late, the fact that you're even here is a blessing, your words truly supported me and Garou, you have no idea how much you helped. It was hard, we went to a temple and you should have seen him, Garou prayed on his knees for day and night, finally, the date came and a healthy baby was born!" she spoke, he faces filled with gratitude as she remembered their struggles.

Alex smiled, as he saw how happy Miki was, but then he went silent thinking about the children in his house, "I'm, such a hypocrite, I deny them for fear of losing them because of their mortality and here I am befriending Mortals. But I guess raising a Mortal and befriending one are different things, then again this could be me trying to justify my actions, then again should it even matter what I choose in another century none of this will matter, is it even worth spending so much time on. Then again..."

"Alex", Miki called out to Alex, snapping his from his internal monologue.

"Sorry, I was just in thought", Alex apologized, feeling a bit apologetic for ignoring Miki.

"No, it's fine. I was just asking who Aura is to you? you know the girl giving in your house", Miki asked.

"Ah, Aura. Well its a bit complicated, we can be called close friends but I feel we're more like siblings, I've known her for what feels like an eternity and we've been close for years. Why?", he said.

"No reason, just curious, so no romantic relations", Miki said leaning forward in her seat while giving Alex a strange smile.

"No, nothing like that, I couldn't bear thinking about her in such a way," Alex said while thinking, "She's like my own child, I raised her since she was nothing more than a newborn elemental, though I had to let her leave when she was strong enough, I guess that is also what every parent must do but still even if not in a father-daughter relationship, she's still like family".

"Oh," said Miki disappointment was written all over her face before she smiled again, "She's a lovely girl, we've invited her over to eat several times and she always made for good company and..." Mikis's face darkened a bit, "Issei also likes her a lot he especially likes it when she hugs him".

"Oh, that's great to hear", Alex said while smiling but internally his thoughts were different, "You little fucker, if you weren't just a toddler I would have strung you up by your balls in the middle of kuoh academy's girls changing room"

"Yes, gre..." Miki was about to echo when the door of the house slammed open an a young boy's voice was heard.

"Mum, I'm home and brought Irina with me. where are yo..." the boy shouted but suddenly stopped when he saw Alex sitting opposite his mother drinking tea. "Mum, who's that," he asked.

Alex looked at the little boy and young girl that came in after him, the boy had spikey brown hair and eye's and looked like your average snot-nose little pervert according to Alex, the girl, on the other hand, was also had brown hair but was of a lighter shade, with beautiful violet eyes and a cute little face, she looked at Alex curiously. Alex also saw a little cross necklace hanging down her neck.

The boy went up to Miki and asked, "Mom, who's this", But before Miki could answer Issei's eyes went wide open and suddenly yelled while pointing his finger at Alex, "Is he your lover, are you cheating on dad with this perve..." whack* "...Ahhhh".

Before the boy which Alex now knew was Issei as he called Miki mom could Finnish his sentence, he got hit behind his head by a furious Miki. "Who's my lover, what are you saying, immediately apologize to Mr. Alex before I beat you so hard you won't be able to sit for a month!".

Issei looked at Miki as if he was wronged, but seeing her gaze he immediately averted his eyes in fear before staring at Alex as if this was all his fault and squeezed out an apology.

"Take that you little shit", Alex thought, as he kindly smiled at Issei before talking to Miki, "Don't be too hard on the boy, he merely has a big imagination.

Miki just smiled bitterly, "I wished that's all he had", she said while thinking of Issei's "hobbies".

Seeing Miki's face Alex gave her a pitying glance, "Yip a pervert through and through," he thought before turning to Issei.

"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you little shi... Issei," Alex quickly corrected himself and continued as if nothing happened," My name is Alex and I'm your neighbor."

"Did you just move in or something?", Issei couldn't understand thus asking.

"No sweetie, the house miss. Aura lives in belongs to mister Alex", Miki answered him.

Her answer looked as if it kicker Issei in the nuts as he was wobbly tears threatening to guess out of his eyes. Worried Miki asked, "Issei is everything ok?"

Issei suddenly fell to his knees, "NOOOOOOO, Miss. Aura has been taken!!!!!!"
