My new hectic Life as a Devil Continues on!

About 2 weeks had passed since the Rating Game with Riser Phoenix as Michael was able to secure his master, her first Rating Game win and also break her engagement with the Yakitori, Riser himself. And during those past 2 weeks a surprising event had occurred, it was Rias moving in to live with Michael and his other two roommates, the reason for this was so she could get closer to her servant but somehow Michael knew that wasn't the case, but was okay with letting his master stay with him.

But Raynare and Asia were rather uncomfortable with a new Boss Class challenger moving in with them. Now resting from the long battle, Michael is back to enjoying his normal school days as before or at least as normal as it'll get for a devil...

In the morning, Michael was wearing a black shirt with white shorts as was still resting in his crowded bed trying to find a comfortable spot to sleep in during the night, but was able to find a soft pillow to hug through his good night sleep. Suddenly sunlight from the window shines down into his room and shines in Michael's face stirring the boy half awake,

"*Yawn* Morning already?" Michael opened his tired eyes then looked around his room to see everything was where it should be, "It's good to be back."

Suddenly Michael felt something soft in his right hand as it showed signs of light movement.

"Hm, What the heck is this?" Michael moved his hand a little to feel the soft object roll around in his hand, "Is this even a pillow?"

Michael continued feeling up the soft object in his hands before a voice shook him out of his curiosity.

"Ara, your awake Michael and you seem to be enjoying yourself."

Michael then froze as he remembers that voice as his eyes lost their tired look and turned to that of shock as he looks forward to see the back of someone's head as he saw long, crimson hair ahead along with the face which turned back to look at him, his master Rias Gremory who was completely naked,

"B-Buchou?" Michael stuttered as takes a closer look at his position to see that he was in fact hugging Rias from behind as his chest was pressed up against her back and also did he forget to mention the fact that she was completely NAKED!

'Ack! I did it again and what does she mean by enjoying myself?' Michael thought then felt his hand twitch slightly and felt that strange soft feeling again, 'Wait am I!'

Michael looked Rias' body to see he was openly grasping her entire breast with hand.

"I have to say that your method of saying good morning surprised me, Michael." Rias said teasingly.

'Uwaaaaaah! Ddraiiiiiiig!' Michael cried out.

[What is it, Partner? Is there an enemy nearby!? Are you in danger!?] Ddraig suddenly awoke from his slumber and exclaimed on high alert.

'I'm trapped, Ddraig, and I don't know how to break out!' Michael cried.

[A trap? Okay, calm down and be more specific! What kind of trap!?]

'I-I-I found myself hugging Buchou and feeling up her breasts, and I don't know how to explain! Help me!'

[...You woke me up for this...?] Ddraig disappointingly yawned, [I'm not going to be your solution for this one partner call me when you have a "real" emergency I can help with. See ya.]

And with that Ddraig cut the link.

'No! You bastard!' Michael cried in his mind.

Thinking fast, Michael quickly came up with a response to this situation.

"W-Wait, Buchou...uh...um... Before you get mad, I just wanna say that Ddraig made me do it, and whatever else I did when I was sleeping it was also him so I'm innocen-"

*Chu*

Rias leaned back and caught Michael off guard as she kissed his cheek.

"Silly Boy, you don't have to make up a story like that. I personally don't mind if you use me as your personal hugging pillow because I believe its much more enjoyable when you are the one doing it instead of me." Rias pressed herself closer to Michael who in turn grows red and gulps,

"R-Really, your not mad?"

"Of course not, I believe us staying like this can lead to something naughty which could help me better communicate with my adorable servant." Rias said with a naughty voice which caused Michael to stiffen as she turns back and whispers, "It's fine if you have the urge to attack me."

"W-What?" Michael gulped then he heard the sound of light breathing on both of his sides and remembered that both Raynare and Asia are still asleep, "But Buchou we can't both Asia and Ray-chan will hear and I'm a dude so if you say that it will-"

"So lets be quiet about it as we start. Remember, I'll do anything if it pleases you." Rias placed her hand over Michael's own which still stayed grasping at her breast.

'What's gotten into Buchou lately? First it was her moving into my small apartment, next it was her making me lunches for school, which taste awesome, and now its this I don't know why she's so nice to me all of a sudden but I know it will be to some getting used to.' Michael gulped then felt something behind him ooze a terrifying pressure,

'Wait, I sense a disturbance could it be...?'

Michael looked over his shoulder to met with a hand reaching for his ear before giving it a rough pull it.

"Ouch! Why?! Why!?" Michael was suddenly pulled away by Rias as the mood was interrupted by an angry Raynare who was wearing a pink nightgown.

"Michael-sama, care to explain what you're doing?" Raynare said with annoyed half lidded eyes.

"Ack! Nothing... I was doing nothing wrong, so please release my ear!" Michael said with teary eyes.

Casting her glance away from Michael, Raynare focuses her sights on Rias who was now sitting up and giving the girl a challenging smile.

"Rias-san may I ask, why you're naked and why you seem to be getting a little too close to Michael-kun?" Raynare asked in a demanding tone.

Smiling at that Rias replied, "I can't really sleep comfortably with my clothes on and I believe it is within my own right to partake in some skinship with my servant."

Raynare retorted with a blush, "B-But such an indecent thing is not allowed in Michael-sama's room as he even told Asia and I not to do it again."

'Yeah, that day was sort of complicated as I woke up with my hand between Ray-chan's naked thighs and once Asia woke up to see it she got all sad and started to strip off her clothes just so she doesn't feel left out.' Michael thought.

"Well again as his master such rules won't apply to me and I don't see him complaining right Michael." Rias asked.

Michael, who was absent mindedly staring at his master's naked chest shook his head as Rias smiled.

"See?"

Raynare's hair covered her eyes as she looked a little pissed off by Michael's answer to Rias.

"I see if that's how things are going to be then-then!" Raynare released Michael's ear and stood up as her eyes were revealed to be watery, "I'll get naked too!"

"EH!?" Michael was shocked by Raynare's sudden cry as the Fallen Angel was quick to strip herself out of the nightgown.

'No! If this starts then a chain reaction will commence!' Michael thought but all of those thoughts disappeared as Raynare was already naked and decided to pounce the off guard Michael.

*Munyuu!*

"Michael-sama look at me instead!" Raynare cried as she pressed her large chest up against Michael's.

"Ray-chan!" Michael screamed and panicked as he could fell the girl's warm chest through his shirt.

Rias watched this with an annoyed expression and said, "Raynare-san release yourself from Michael at once."

Raynare looked back at Rias and stuck out her tongue as she lost her teary eyed face rather quickly,

"No, you may be Michael-sama's master, but I'm still a Fallen Angel so I don't have to listen to you at all. I deserve to also get looked at by Michael-sama the most."

Rias was easily seen to be angered as a red aura surrounds her body.

'Oh shit!' Michael's eyes widened.

*Grab!*

Pulling Michael away, Rias said,

"That may be true, but he is my, servant to do with as I please. What right do you have to say that?"

*Grab!*

Grabbing his other Raynare screamed,

"One day I'll become Michael-sama's servant so he can look at me as much as he wants!"

"Let go of him!" Rias cried as she pulled one arm.

"No, you let go!" Raynare cried.

"No!"

'Agh! Their gonna have halves of me at this point! How can this get any worse!' Michael groans in pain until he hears a slight crying noise behind him, taking a glance back he sees Asia starting to strip out of her nightgown as well, wait when did she wake up!?

"Auuuuuuuu! I don't want to be left out too!" Asia cried.

'I was freaking kidding!' Michael cursed himself for again placing another jinx upon the situation.

(In Kuoh Academy)

Since fall season came to a close not too long ago, Michael now wore his summer uniform which consisted of the Kuoh Academy Dress shirt, a red shirt with the logo of a large skeletal dragon in the middle, black jeans and finally red and black sneakers. Not to mention, Michael wore his trademark goggles on his forehead as usual.

During class break, Michael and Saji were walking down the halls of the school building as Michael walked tiredly beside his friend while trying to understand why most of the girls in the hallway are giving him fearful stares.

"Hey, are you alright man?" Saji asked.

"Yeah, and also shut up..." Michael rolled his sore shoulders around in a grouchy mood.

"Well that's a definite no." Saji sighed, "So what? Isn't Casa De Hanamura more off the hook than ever since your master started living with you?"

Michael looked at Saji and said, "Okay, first off, Saji, you shouldn't try talking street especially if you don't know how to use the slang right, yo."

"Fair enough..." Saji shrugged.

"And second, no one ever says "Off the Hook" anymore its gotten old and everyone knows it, and three, ever since Buchou moved in I haven't been able to let my guard down and chill out like I used to."

"Well, that is a curse for having too many girls living in your cramped apartment." Saji shrugged as the two guys stopped at an open window and looked outside of it to see the girl's track team was practicing.

"It's not that I don't want Buchou staying with me, its actually nice to have her company. She's a great cook like Asia and Raynare, but ever since she moved in for some reason the pair started acting strange, and are doing anything weird to grab my attention." Michael propped his head up with one arm, "*Sigh* I just don't know how to deal with this now."

Changing the subject, Saji looks at Michael's eyes to see they are back to normal,

"So what happened to that dragon eye that you had?" Saji asked.

"Huh, oh, this?" Michael put a finger to his eye and pulled off a clear leans to show Saji the very same reptilian eye, "I was given a contact lens to cover it up in public." Michael then lifted up his arm to reveal that he no longer had any bandages around it along with it look like normal.

"And I don't use bandages anymore because after I used Balance Breaker, the dragon energy exceeded the seal and made it unusable, so either Akeno-senpai or Buchou suck up and scatter the power to make it look like my old human one."

Saji shook his head and chuckled, "I still can't believe you got Balance Breaker already, but I guess that means I'll have to do my best to surpass you now."

"Hah! I'd like to see you try that because no one can beat the Great Hanamura now!" Michael grinned, but then remembered a repressed memory of himself.

A simple kid covered in bruises and dirt on the ground as he pathetically looked up at another kid his age imperiously standing over him with his crossed arms,

'That's right, I guess not even "he" can now...' Michael's eyes narrowed down at the mental image.

"Mike?"

"Ah! Sorry, I was just remembering something important is all." Michael smiled bitterly then noticed a couple of girls walking past him giving the boy fearful stares.

"It's him."

"Quick, walk faster so you don't have to make direct eye contact..."

Saji simply snickered to himself as Michael's jaw fell.

"Yo! What the hell was that? I've been receiving rude comments and glances from the girls like that ever since I came back to school!"

Michael grinded his teeth. Sure, he wanted to be well-known throughout the school, but he didn't want to be known as the guy that everyone wanted to avoid and since the girls are doing it then so will the guys.

"You don't know?" Saji tilts his head while leaning back against the window as Michael shook his head.

"Well, it's only natural since you were gone that one week, but I guess rumors sure do fly fast. You see there were some rumors that Matsuda and Motohama spread about you."

"Those guys made rumors about me? Why, I thought they were my bros?"

"Mike, all within a short timespan you've been in contact with the two Great Ladies on campus, heck, you even joined their club. Thats not even mentioning both Raynare-san and Asia-san that are practically walking to school with you in the morning. Besides it just being those two, a heck of a lot of guys would be jealous even me if I hadn't joined the student council." Saji explained, "So is it really that hard to comprehend?"

"Ah, no not really..." Michael gulped, "C-Continue..."

"Well, most of the stuff they spread around was "damaging" to say the least. One goes like this: 'The Wild Beast Michael playing around with beautiful girls. He's got a hold on Gremory-senpai and Himejima-senpai. He's forcing them to do evil, sexual acts against their will. "Fufufu. The dignified Ojou-sama is making such a slutty face for me! You pig!" ' sort of like that."

"What the fu-!"

Saji shrugged, "Ah, that's only the beginning, there's one about Raynare-san which involves: "The Wild Beast Michael setting his fangs on the foreign transfer student, Raynare! Through devious teachings of sexual torture, he was able to break her mind and turn her into an obedient servant to the point to where her once painful cries of pain turned into ecstatic moans of, "Michael-sama! More! Please I can't live without you inside of me! You can have any part of me as long as you at least stick it in m-me...Iyaaaaan~!" Excuse me for my bad imitation, but that's how I heard it."

"..." Michael grew despondent by the second as his eye twitched.

"Sadly there more since there's this rumor that was sort of made to make the other girls start to avoid you like the plague such as as this one: 'The beast finally set his filthy fangs on the school's mascot, Koneko-chan, the girl with a fragile loli body. Then he instigated intense sexual intercourse that could easily break her body. He feasted on an underdeveloped body. "Senpai...please stop..." But her words were futile to the beast. His lust for sex then reached the Angel who had just transferred to our school; he attacked Asia-chan on the first day. "I'll teach you about Japanese culture with my special after school lesson". He made the Angel fall down to the abyss at dawn... Ever since he took her into his house. The never ending hell took place in your small room. The brute Michael's hunt for beautiful girls will never end' and that's it for the girls of the Occult Research Club."

Michael was on the floor on all fours crying as he said, "How the hell am I supposed to react to that!? Why do I have to get dragged into this crap? I wanted to be known as a badass not a sex fiend!"

"Well, I guess this is what you wanted, but it turned out to be a monkey's paw." Saji scratched the back of his head.

Suddenly something clicked in Michael's head, "W-Wait! Hold on, you said those were the rumors involving the girls, then that means that there are also rumors about..."

Michael's face began to pale as Saji nodded to his unspoken question.

"Yep, and some girls are strangely already (MichaelxKiba) fans, so its basically...Beauty and the Beast with you as the Beast." Saji said.

"..." Michael angrily looked down allowing his hair to cover his face. Luckily for him he could vent this anger upon hearing the two perverted traitors talking in the hall.

"You know what, I guess this was Karma for something I did to them." Michael forced a smile as he slowly picked himself up.

"Are you okay?" Saji asked.

"But you know..." Michael walked over to the nearby janitor and grabbed the mop out of his hands.

"Hey, you-!" The janitor started but...

"Piss off...!" Michael hissed earning everyone's attention in the hallway, as the janitor simply nodded and ran away in fright while visibly sobbing.

Walking down the hallway, Michael looks at Matsuda and Motohama who were trembling in fear.

"So guys you think it's funny to make a joke of my social life?" Michael said with dark eyes.

"You need to have a social life before you can ruin it social li-" Saji started.

"Was I talking to you!?" Michael spat.

"Sorry." Saji raised his hands in defeat as Michael continued,

"But you know what, I believe rumors can come back and bite you in the ass, and lucky for you I decided to do that myself except there won't be any biting..." Michael inched closer to the two perverts who stepped back, frightened.

"Because I got this stick to shove up both your assess, hahahahaha!" Michael laughed crazily.

'This isn't going to help your case get any better if your acting like this.' Saji sweatdropped, as he noticed the many student trembling at the scene, 'Especially, if you doing it in public!'

"B-B-But you just have one stick." Motohama gulped.

"Oh, do I now? Well, let's fix it!"

*SNAP!*

Michael broke the mop with his knee as he held two sticks now, "See, a magic trick! I made two sticks appear now watch me as I make them disappear!"

"W-Wha?" Matsuda tried to say something, but suddenly Michael's face was close to their as he whispered,

"Run!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaah!" The Perverted Duo cried and ran away leaving Michael to stand in the hallway which was surrounded in an awkward atmosphere.

"Phew, That was well handled so does anyone want these?" Michael returned to normal as he held up the broken mop in the air.

"Quick, run away before he attacks someone else!" The whole hallway was evacuated leaving only just Michael and Saji alone within it.

"Michael, you really overdo things sometimes that it's not even funny." Saji face palmed himself while Michael slumped down in defeat.

"M-My bad..."

Thinking things couldn't go any worse, Michael heard a voice which he knew all to well,

"Well, if it isn't the "Beast" Michael Hanamura."

"Kiryuu Aika!" Michael growled as he looked up to see a brown haired, glasses wearing girl looking at Michael with a smirk.

"We meet again, Michael-kun, how have you been?" Kiryuu crossed her arms.

"Terrible now its worse since your here." Michael took a defensive stance against the girl.

'Am I missing something?' Saji thought as he inquisitively looked to the pair of them from the middle.

"Aw, but I thought we were friends... You know since I know some things about your...well, you can say I know something "Big" about you." Kiryuu adjusted her glasses.

"Silence!" Michael growled while turning red, "Just why are you in the presence of the Great Hanamura?"

"Now, now don't get all mad. I was just helping my friend look for you is all." Kiryuu said.

"Your friend?" Michael repeated.

"Michael-san." From behind Kiryuu was Asia who walked up to the talking group.

"Oh, hello, Asia-san." Saji waved.

"Hello, Saji-san." Asia returned the greeting.

"Asia? Wait, your friends with this girl!?" Michael points at Kiryuu in an exaggerated fashion.

"Yes." Asia nodded happily.

"It's not so surprising if you look at us, we're basically the best of friends!" Kiryuu smirked as the light in the hallway mischievously shone on her glasses.

'This girl is p-poison if she stays near Asia any longer then she'll corrupt her.' Michael thought.

"But are you really sure that you want a guy like this to be your boy-Mugah!" Kiryuu had her mouth covered by Asia who was blushing.

"Aaaah! Kiryuu-san, you promised not to say anything!" Asia cried.

Michael, who was confused tilted his head until Saji places a hand onto his shoulder and said seriously,

"Mike, if I weren't in the student council right now I'd have dropped you in a vat of boiling oil right now."

"Yeah...wait, what?" Michael growled.

"Just saying." Saji chuckled.

"Why you basta-!"

*THUMP!* *THUMP!*

"Gah! Dammit!" Michael grabbed his right arm as he felt a powerful pulse go through it.

"Huh?" Saji blinked.

"Hey, what's up with you?" Kiryuu asked.

"Oh, nothing... I just had a sick feeling in my stomach is all, don't worry~!" Michael chuckled as he started to walk past the girl.

"But you grabbed your wrist." Kiryuu said suspiciously.

"Look, you're not a doctor, so you can't tell how the Great Michael's body works so shut up!" Michael growled.

"Oh, wow, your right... I guess trying to figure out the "Great" Michael's mind would be a mystery for all to never solve." Kiryuu mocked.

'One of these days, Kiryuu, one of these days!' Michael thought.

"Michael-san, is it your-?" Asia asked as Michael nods.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Michael whispered back as he left the hallway in search for one of his Upperclassmen.

(In the Clubroom)

Sitting on one of the couches, Michael was wearing nothing but his jeans as his upper body was naked, since the ceremony strangely needs person's shirt off for some reason.

'I'm so glad I got to Akeno-senpai as soon as I did or things would have turned bad.' Michael looked at his right arm to see black claws and some scales emerging.

*Gacha!*

Looking over his shoulder, Michael sees an stimulating sight as it was Akeno wearing nothing but a wet Obi which stuck to her skin that made most of her body transparent and easily seen.

"Thank you for waiting." Akeno untied her ribbon and let down her hair as she walks over to the boy.

"Sorry to make you come all of a sudden, Akeno-senpai." Michael scratched the back of his head.

"Don't worry Michael-kun it isn't your fault." Akeno kneeled down and gave Michael a somewhat seductive smile he couldn't understand, "Now let's begin."

"A-Alright, I'm in your hands." Michael closed his eyes tightly as he caught a glimpse of his senior's naked body.

"What's wrong?" Akeno asked.

"No, it's just that I don't wanna look at your wet body while you do this for me, it just selfishness because your helping me fix my arm as I stare at your body." Michael said seriously.

"Ufufu, you're really an honest boy, Michael-kun it's really adorable." Akeno grabbed Michael's hand, "You shouldn't worry about me, I had to wash myself quickly before the ceremony, when you called on me so suddenly it actually made less time for me to dry myself. Forgive me if I make you uncomfortable."

"N-No, it's fine. It's really okay." Michael said as he kept his eyes closed.

"Your dragon arm's spirit is stronger than expected so our only resort was to change its shape with magic, but as you already know it works only temporarily." Akeno explained as she held the finger up to her mouth, "That's why I have to suck it out of your fingers directly and take everything out."

Proceeding, Akeno puts Michael's finger in her mouth and begins sucking out the dragon's power manually as Michael tries his best to suppress a squeak trying to pop out of his throat each time Akeno rolled it around his finger. But his resistance breaks as he moans out,

"Gya."

Stopping Akeno looks up to see Michael's face as his eyes remained closed while panting as she releases his finger from her mouth,

"Ara, seeing such a reaction from you makes me want to tease you even more."

"T-Tease?" Michael repeated.

"Yes, I don't think there's a punishment for being kind to my kouhai is there?" Akeno then crawled up to Michael's lap.

'What's going on!?' Michael squeaked.

Suddenly a whisper from his senpai surprises him,

"I'm fonder of you than you think, Michael-kun."

"R-Really?" Michael asked but then stopped as he felt Akeno's soft body on his own.

"I wonder if I would to lay a hand on you then would Rias be mad." Akeno said to herself.

'So Akeno-senpai can call Buchou by her name. I guess they really are best friend and wait what does she mean lay a hand on me and how would Buchou be mad at that?' Michael thought.

Picking up Michael's hand, Akeno says, "You're such a sinful man."

"What sinful what do you me-Gyaaah!"

She then proceeds to lick, Michael's right hand and continued the ceremony which lasted 5 more minutes until she was finished.

"There now the dragon power is all out of your hand you should be fine for a while." Akeno wiped her mouth off with a handkerchief.

Standing up, Michael opened and closed his hand and grinned, "It even feels the way it used to too! Yosh! The Great Hanamura is feeling better once again!" Michael chuckled then looked back at Akeno and smiled, "Thanks for the help Akeno-senpai you're the best!"

'I don't know why, but I feel like I need to take a shower to wash off some of this strange shame after this.' Michael thought.

As she was about to leave Akeno then begins to fix her Obi and says, "I believe you truly aregreat."

"Huh?" Michael looks back to see Akeno who continues,

"During the battle with Phoenix you were getting up time and time again after getting knocked down..." Akeno tightens her Obi a little more as she remembers the rest of the fight she watched while getting her injuries tended to, "You were really manly, Michael-kun and finally when you gave up your right eye to enter Balance Break and save Buchou, even defeating the well-known Immortal Phoenix."

Michael looks at Akeno who smiles back at him,

"After watching such a gentleman use all he had to fight made me feel so..." Akeno puts a finger onto Michael's bare chest and brings it down.

"Ngh!" Michael trembled in sensitivity.

"I wonder if this is love?"

*Ding!* *Dong!* *Ding!* *Dong!*

The bell rang indicating the end of free period as Akeno prepares to leave as she bows and said, "Let us meet again."

Upon her leaving the room, Michael was left alone and felt somewhat shameful for some reason, "Yeah, I think I should really go home and...shower, yeah taking shower sounds good right now."

Getting ready to leave for class, Michael suddenly remembers something that Rias told him in the morning after everything settled down.

"Oh! That's right I forgot that the Club's having a meeting at my place!" Michael screamed.

"Aw, crap the club is meeting at my place!"

(In Michael's apartment)

In the evening after school everyone from the ORC club was gathered in Michael's room which was cleaned up by Raynare so it could fit everyone inside despite its small space. Once everyone made themselves comfortable the meeting began to go underway rather smoothly,

"Now let's go through our regular meeting shall we?" Rias said as she sat on Michael's bed and drank tea.

"This month's contract numbers are: Akeno, 11."

"Yes."

"Koneko, 10"

"...Yes."

"Yuuto, 8."

"Yes."

"Asia, 3."

"Y-Yes." Asia timidly nodded.

"Wow, that's awesome Asia you're doing good!" Michael grinned.

"That's great, Asia-san." Kiba smiled.

"Ara ara, good job." Akeno praised.

"That's pretty good for a newbie." Koneko complimented.

"Oh, thank you so much!" Asia smiled brightly at the compliments.

"And Michael..." Rias takes a sip of her tea then says, "2."

Michael slumped his head down and thought, 'Stupid client asking for a pet, how was I supposed to know he was allergic to cat dander!?'

"Man, this sucks... I lost a contract with one client, but..." Michael clenched his fist and smiles, "I'll do my best to do better!"

"That's the way to think." Rias nods, "If you focus on what your goal is then you'll be able to a High-Class Devil in no time."

"High-Class? Screw that I'm aiming to be an Ultimate-Class then be a Maou!" Michael grinned excitedly, "Yeah the Great Hanamura isn't going down just yet!"

Everyone, but Koneko laughed at Michael's usual proclamation.

"I wonder how you are always so full of spirit." Rias said with a happy expression.

*Gacha!*

Opening the bedroom door was Raynare who wore an apron over her uniform as she brought in snacks.

"Hello everyone, I hope I'm not interrupting?" Raynare entered with a nervous expression.

"No, not at all." Rias shook her head.

"Hey, guess who's earning more contracts between Michael-kun and Asia-san?" Akeno smiled.

"Asia." Raynare immediately answered.

"Hey, what the hell Ray-chan!" Michael growled and stood, "It could've been a trick question and the answer was both!"

Raynare looked at Michael with half lidded eyes then looked to Rias, "How many did he gain?"

"About negative 1." Rias answered truthfully.

"So the only one improving is..." Raynare began.

"Asia."

"Asia."

"Asia."

"...Not Michael-senpai." Koneko said.

Michael looked down then walked towards the corner of his room and sat near it as he sulked, "I don't care for any of you anymore..."

"It seems his spirits were short lived after all." Rias gave a bitter smile.

Everyone looked at Michael and sweatdropped.

"Oh, Michael-sama, I found something interesting while cleaning around your room." Raynare pulled out 3 Photo Albums.

"O-Oi, what are you doing with those!?" Michael perked up at the sight of the albums and looked terrified.

"Nothing, I just so happened to find them while cleaning out the underside of your bed is all." Raynare passed them out.

'Nooooooo! Don't look at them!' Michael screamed in his mind as his embarrassment commenced.

"Wait guys shouldn't we focus on the meeting?" Michael forced a smile as the girls began looking through his photos.

Looking at the first photo was Raynare who blushed and giggled, "This one has to be Michael-sama when he was in Grade School."

The photo revealed a photo of an 8 year old Michael running through the park wearing a blue cape like a super hero.

'That one was taken when a couple of high school girls came to the park to see the little children play, I could've sworn they were Shotacons by the amount of pictures they took."

"Ara Ara, is Michael-kun pretending to be a super hero how cute!" Akeno giggled as she stared at the photo album intently.

"…" Koneko was looking in her album closely as she stares at a photo of a 10 year old Michael running away from a pack of squirrels, the most noticeable features was the tears Michael shed.

"Michael-senpai's frank and humiliating past." Koneko commented.

"Oi, no one asked you for your opinion!" Michael growled but stopped as he thought he saw the littlest of smiles on Koneko's face as she gazes through the album.

'That photo was taken by some random guy on the street who was looking to be famous online, fortunate for him I was being chased by many squirrels who smelled the bag of acorns I was collecting for a school project. That was the first and last environmental project I've done since.' Michael sighed.

Michael looked over his shoulder to see something rather strange.

"Little Michael from Childhood. Little Michael from Childhood. Little Michael from Childhood. Little Michael from Childhood. Little Michael from Childhood. Little Michael from Childhood. Little Michael from Childhood. Little Michael from Childhood. "

Chanting these words were Rias whose cheeks were red as her eyes sparkled each time she looked at a photo of a young Michael.

"Buchou?" Michael sweatdropped at the many chanting.

'You know whatever you want won't come true just by staring at it…' Michael thought with half lidded eyes.

"I agree, Rias-san. These pictures of Michael-sama as an adorable child is too irresistible that I can't look away." Raynare's eyes sparkled.

"Yes, I too understand Buchou's feelings. Michael-san in these photos are so cute~!" Asia's eyes also sparkled as all three girls surrounded the single album.

"Why are they so taken with my photos?" Michael asked.

"I believe it's a great way to learn about your character just by looking at them, Michael-kun." Kiba approached Michael as he looked at the album closely.

"Oi, Pretty Boy if you want to keep your hands then you'd best give that back!" Michael lunged at Kiba who jumps high in the air avoiding Michael's attempt to steal back the album.

"Isn't it fine, if we just take a little more of a look?" Kiba then stopped to look at a page in interest, "Michael-kun, who's this with you in the picture?"

Michael calmed himself down and looked at the page then widened his eyes to see the picture Kiba pointed at. It was a photo of an 11 year old Michael covered in bruises as a young boy his age with dark silver hair and icy blue eyes sat on top of him with his arms crossed without a single scratch on him.

"Oh, him? Well, he was...sort of...one of my childhood friends, wait, no I take it back... Friends are for people you can actually stand while this guy is a huge and utter smartass with a bad attitude and wouldn't do anything unless it involved some sort of strange impossible challenge and noodles. The person, who took that picture was some perverted old man, who watched over him and me for about 2 years before they suddenly disappeared without a trace leaving me alone again... Until I met Saji."

"Do you know his name?" Kiba asked.

"Of course, how could I ever forget a douche like that's freaking name, he was, Vali..." Michael scratched the back of his head.

"Huh?" Raynare perked up at the call of that name and whispered to herself, "Vali-sama?"

"Is something wrong?" Michael asked.

"N-No, its nothing Michael-sama, don't mind me." Raynare gave a forced smile and went back to looking at his many child photos.

"So you don't have a family?"

"If I had one would you seriously think I would seriously live in a one bedroom apartment?" Michael coyly answered.

"No, it's just that I don't necessarily have a family either." Kiba said sadly.

Michael looked at Kiba in surprise, then begrudgingly said, "Oi, aren't you going to keep looking? If you're interested this album has a few of my past friend and I in there if you still want to look."

"Really, thank you, I appreciate it." Kiba then opened another page to be surprised once more, "Michael-kun, may I ask you about this picture?"

"Yup?" Michael looked at the picture Kiba was staring at and saw a photo of himself about eleven years ago as a six year old playing with a light brown haired girl in front of a fireplace which had a sword mounted on the wall over it.

"Oh, you mean this? Well there was this girl who lived across the street from me and she would come over to my place to play. They had to move once her parents got a job overseas. Yep. This was the first girl I ever interacted with and also my first-!" Michael covered his mouth as he heard the sound of the albums being closed from behind him.

"What was that, Michael?" Rias immediately asked.

"Oh, nothing it was nothing." Michael shook his head with a pale face.

"I see..." Rias went back to examining the photos with the girls as Michael rubbed his forehead,

"That was a close one."

"One more thing." Kiba said with a serious tone, "Do you remember this sword?"

Michael looked at the sword in the picture and said, "Yeah, sure did. The girl's father wouldn't let me touch it when I wanted to use it to cut worms because he kept on glorifying it like something important, why?"

"With this... I guess anything can happen for a reason." Kiba said with an anxious smile.

"Is something up with the photo?" Michael asked.

"Yeah, I'm just realizing who you are and how less surprising it is for me to see this blade with you." Kiba said.

"What do you mean by that?" Michael asked.

Suddenly, Kiba's once bright eyes lost their luster as he said in a uncharacteristically dark tone, "This is a Holy Sword."

"A holy what?" Michael blinked.

"Never mind, it's nothing you should worry about." Kiba closed the album and handed it to Michael, immediately wearing his old charming smile, "Thank you for allowing me to see your pictures."

"Right." Michael nodded as for that single moment he saw something of Kiba he never knew before.

(Later that night)

"Well, I'm off." Michael walked out the apartment as Rias waved.

"Good luck with getting your contract."

"Hah! Me, luck? Please, I got skill!" Michael chuckled then whistled.

"Sirius!"

*ZOOOOM!*

Zooming down from the sky was a red cloud floating towards Michael.

"Haha!" Michael laughed as he hopped onto the cloud and sat on top of it.

"Your still not good at using magic circles, but this present that Kai-sama bestowed to you is pretty handy for transportation, don't you agree?" Rias smiled with her arms crossed.

"You have no idea! Well, Buchou, I'm off!" Michael waved goodbye as Sirus zoomed off into the sky.

"Make sure to remember to give them your seal after accomplishing your task!" Rias reminded.

"I know! Sheesh, a guy messes up 4 times and gets nagged for it!" Michael groaned.

While flying through the sky, Michael follows the directions to his client while lost in thought,

'I wonder what was Pretty Boy's deal today, he acted really strange, and I mean actually strange not awkward strange.' Michael thought then remembered the photo Kiba brought up, 'And he said something about a holy sword too, so could that be the reason why? Also by holy sword was it like that light sword that lunatic priest used...?'

Looking down, Michael sees the hotel that his client was staying in, "Well, this is my stop. I'll just have to ask Pretty Boy about it later."

After flying down to land, Michael enters the hotel to go to the top floor where his client presides.

*Ding!* *Dong!*

"Okay, what excuse can I use for not using the magic circle? Will they believe me if I told them that I came here on a flying cloud?" Michael said out loud then sighed, "Shit…of course they won't. Unless..."

*Gacha!*

As the door opens, Michael puts on his business face.

"Okay, I know what you're gonna ask me 'Hey, if you're a devil then why are you ringing the front door?' Well, I do have an explanation, but this isn't about that, so what's your request and I'll handle it right away, bet on it!"

Michael closed his eyes and pulled out his seal.

"Well, for a devil you sure do have strange hair." The man in front of him commented then chuckled, "And that catchphrase of yours still hasn't changed... Its just as cliché as ever."

Michael grew many tick marks on his head at the two insults before he opened his eyes and shouted, "You got a problem with me!"

Coming out of the door was a tall man who looked to be in his late twenties as he had an average, but somewhat muscular build, black hair with golden bangs and a black goatee as his eyes were purple while donning a drab blue yukata.

"So I guess even after you're made a devil, you're still the same loud mouthed brat as ever, huh?" The man wore lazy smirk as he tiredly scratched the back of his head.

Michael looked at the man with wide eyes before crying happily,

"E-E-Ero-Ossan!"
