35 Chapter 35: Devilish Intrigue

Akeno entered Yuuto's room, which had become their shared space. Their clothes intermingled, evidence of their intertwined lives and intimate moments.

"Ano, Yuuto, can you hear me?" Akeno gently whispered to the sleeping Yuuto.

Yuuto roused from his slumber, slowly awakened and sat up on the bed, his eyes barely open.

"What's wrong?" he mumbled, his voice heavy with drowsiness.

Approaching him, Akeno knelt down and took his hand, her touch tender and comforting.

"I'm sorry for making you like this," Akeno said, her voice filled with sincerity.

"Why are you apologizing?" Yuuto asked, his curiosity piqued.

"I'm the one who made Souji-san decide to attack you by fabricating lies just because you didn't have sex with me yesterday," Akeno confessed, laying bare her mistake.

Yuuto raised an eyebrow, a mixture of surprise and playful banter colouring his words. "Are you that horny, Akeno?"

"Yes, I am. You have made me addicted to it. I can't go a day without craving you. Take responsibility," Akeno admitted, her voice reflecting her honest yearning.

Yuuto's smile widened as he understood her unspoken longing. "Do you want to have sex today?"

"I want to, but I'm worried you're exhausted," Akeno replied, her concern for his well-being evident.

Standing up, Yuuto reassured her with a loving determination. "I'm never too exhausted for my woman. Prepare yourself; I'll make sure you won't be able to walk tomorrow." He lowered his pants, revealing a dragon—a symbol of his strength and intense passion.

Akeno's heart fluttered with a mix of anticipation and adoration. At that moment, she knew she was cherished and desired. As they embraced the night, their love and connection deepened, promising a passionate encounter that would create lasting memories.

That night was filled with passionate expressions of pleasure, as their bodies intertwined in a dance of intimacy. The room echoed with the sounds of their shared ecstasy, as moans and gasps of pleasure escaped their lips, each moment building upon the last. In the embrace of their desires, they discovered new heights of sensuality and a profound connection that transcended the physical realm. It was a night etched in their memories, a testament to their love and the depth of their bond.

Rias and Koneko found themselves captivated by the tantalizing symphony of moans that filled the night. Their curiosity was piqued, and an undeniable spark of arousal ignited within them, urging them to explore the depths of their own desires.

In a daring act of surrender to their carnal cravings, Rias and Koneko gave in to the irresistible pull. They indulged in their secret longing, their hands boldly exploring their own bodies, each touch sending electrifying waves of pleasure coursing through their veins.

Sirzech Office Room, Gremory Mansion

"I have some news that might interest you," Grayfia said, bowing respectfully to Sirzech.

"What is it?" Sirzech inquired, his gaze fixed on Grayfia.

"Kiba Yuuto has made significant strides in his strength. He was able to inflict damage on Souji using just his physical prowess," Grayfia reported.

"When did they engage in combat?" Sirzech asked.

"A few minutes ago, they decided to spar, relying solely on their own bodies and skills, without tapping into any other power source," Grayfia explained.

"Did they both sustain serious injuries?" Sirzech inquired further.

"Only Yuuto was badly injured, with three puncture wounds in his body after receiving Sandanzuki from Souji. Yuuto also employed a technique called Ittou Shura to enhance his strength, albeit at the cost of damaging his own body," Grayfia revealed.

"Was he able to fully recover?" Sirzech inquired.

"He managed to heal himself within two minutes using Nature Energy, and possibly other sources as well. It appears that he possesses a regeneration ability similar to that of the Phoenix family," Grayfia informed.

"Isn't that an exceptionally rapid healing process, even with Nature Energy?" Sirzech questioned.

"Yes, it is quite remarkable. However, I believe that the other sources he utilizes play a significant role in his healing," Grayfia expressed her opinion on the matter.

"Hmm," Sirzech pondered for a moment, and then an idea struck him. "Grayfia, lead me to Souji. I would like to ask him something."

"Understood," Grayfia bowed and opened the door, leading the way to the medical room.

Sirzech and Grayfia walked into the hospital room, finding Souji lying on the bed with his hands resting on his head.

"Yo, Sirzech," Souji greeted, sitting up.

"Please show some respect to Sirzech-sama, Souji," Grayfia reminded him.

"Hey, no need to be so uptight, Grayfia-san," Souji replied casually.

Sirzech pulled up a nearby chair and settled down next to Souji's bed.

"So, this is about my disciple?" Souji asked, his tone curious.

"Yes, it's regarding him. How would you assess his strength?" Sirzech inquired, genuinely interested in hearing Souji's thoughts. If Yuuto showed promising potential, Sirzech would be more inclined to place his trust in him.

"Well, it's hard to say for sure. We held back quite a bit during our spar. But based on the version of him I faced, I'd say he's at least a top-tier High-Class Devil," Souji responded, pausing for a moment to reflect. "His growth rate is impressive, and he adapts quickly. After a few exchanges, he was able to keep up with me. With more experience in battle, he might even reach Maou-Class, although that's just my personal opinion. Oh, and, interestingly, he can use the Pendragon sword style."

"What do you mean by that? Are you suggesting that someone from the Pendragon family is teaching him?" Grayfia inquired, her curiosity piqued.

"It's a possibility, but we can't say for certain," Souji replied, shrugging his shoulders.

Sirzech leaned forward, his interest evident in his eyes. "Based on what you've observed, how strong do you think he will become in the future?"

"Likely a Super Devil, just like you, Sirzech," Souji answered confidently, observing Sirzech deep in thought. "With Yuuto around, your sister is in capable hands. Without him, she wouldn't be training at all. You know how lazy she can be."

"Thank you," Sirzech said gratefully. He rose from the chair, and Grayfia followed suit as they exited the medical room, their minds filled with anticipation and new possibilities.

Souji rested on the bed, lost in his own thoughts. A quiet mutter escaped his lips as he contemplated what he had witnessed. "It's almost as if my eyes are playing tricks on me. There's something devilish about him, something deep within, eager to break free."

Souji's mind drifted back to the intense battle, replaying the moments in his head. A shiver ran down his spine as he recalled the sensation of being watched by a pair of piercing golden eyes.
