NOVEL NEXT DxD 0111: Did She Know?
“What are you talking about, A-kun?” Akeno asked Abaddon while leaning weakly in his arms. He was still fixing her hair and she was enjoying every moment of his pampering.
“I recently got a pretty large power-up and need to train for a while to get used to it.” He told her, “So, I had Seekvaira set up a dilated training room for me where I would be able to spend two months in a single day.”
“Why though? What’s the hurry?” She asked, “We don’t have anything significant after the summit, you can train peacefully.” She said.
“I’d rather get myself to my peak state before the summit,” He said, “I’m not going to risk having Michael attack me again.”
He only told her the half-truth. The main reason for his early training was his Trial of Extinction which was fast approaching. Facing potentially millions of pure Devils with the now-extinct Abaddon clan’s Hole power, he wanted to be completely prepared. He would most likely be facing a significant number of ultimate-class beings as well and needed to be in the best possible state before that.
“So?” Abaddon asked, “What do you say? Two months, just the two of us. Or, if you get tired, I’ll switch you out with Sona after the first month. That is, 12 hours real-time.”
“Not Buchou?” Akeno asked about Rias, “I thought that she was the best training partner for you.”
“She’s helpful when it comes to enhancing my power.” Abaddon said, “Training control is a different ballgame. My enhancement did the same thing that Boost usually does, but it’s permanent, unlike Boost which is temporary. I feel like my control has also increased with everything else, but that’s only a surface feeling. I still need to train my control to perfection. Before that, I’m not going to risk running my energy through Rias’ body.”
Akeno felt like his explanation was missing some information, but still understood the gist of it.
“And you need me for …” She trailed off, hoping Abaddon would satisfy her curiosity.
“Just some basic help here and there. I won’t be shooting Destruction blasts at you if you’re concerned about that.” He laughed, “Plus, I’m not going to be training all the time, it’s obvious that I’ll need my sleeping buddy there with me.”
“Two months, just the two of us,” Akeno repeated while deep in thought. Her eyes closed as she continued enjoying Abaddon’s loving caresses on her head. He was also trailing his fingers along her spine and that made her feel even more comfortable.
“If you don’t want to, I can look for someone else. I think my lovely kouhai Koneko would love to spend some time with her senpai,” He said, “She’s been pretty clingy with me recently, despite her occasional … hurtful words.”
“Fufu, I think you have some nefarious intentions with your kouhai, A-kun,” Akeno teased with a tired edge to her tone. She tightened her arms around him and rested her head on his shoulder in a more comfortable tone.
“Are you comfortable?” He asked her.
“Mhm…” She nodded, “Although the belt seems large and uncomfortable, I feel like I’m wearing the most comfortable satin panties right now. The belt is somewhat compressing my belly, but it’s not too noticeable, however, the plug in my butt is a bit weird, but I don’t really mind its presence.”
“I was asking if your posture was comfortable, but that’s nice too. I’m glad that the artifact is working as intended.” Abaddon joked as Akeno pinched his waist, making him laugh lightly, “I’ll take you home now.” He told her as a teleportation circle formed under them. As for Akeno, she fell asleep after a gentle magical nudge from Abaddon. She was already fatigued, so there wasn’t any resistance.
Appearing in Akeno’s bedroom, Abaddon gently laid her down on her bed and took a few seconds to admire her current state. She had a metallic belt wrapped around her waist, right under her belly button, where previously there was a latch to open the three sections of the belt, it was completely smooth, the latch having disappeared completely.
Abaddon had full control over the myriad functions of the belt and he was going to leverage them to the fullest in the coming month, ‘I also need to establish new rules for this trapped Fallen Bunny…’ He laughed inwardly to himself as he gave a last glance at Akeno’s beautiful body. He then made sure that she was comfortable before covering her with a blanket and leaving the room. He still had to talk to Rias. He wanted to know where she was during this time.
After all, it wasn’t just Akeno who had been in preparation talks with Sirzechs and Serafall.
Walking out of Akeno’s room, Abaddon cast a teleportation spell that led him to Rias’ location.
Just as he appeared, he felt a burst of Demonic energy being used to cast a water-based spell in his direction.
“Fuck!” Abaddon cursed as he felt the massive attack approaching him. Reacting almost instinctively, he barely wrapped himself in a ball of Destruction energy that destroyed the approaching blast of compressed water at him.
The moment he felt the water’s pressure weakening, he instantly exploded his Destruction energy outward, targeting whoever cast the spell at him.
“Woah! Calm down, Abaddon-chan!” He heard a familiar voice and found his Destruction energy being wrapped by some sort of sparkling water that slowly compressed it without being affected by it.
“Why would you attack me?” Abaddon asked full of annoyance, “I could’ve died,” He looked at Serafall who was still dressed in a similar outfit as the one he saw her in at school. Though this one seemed a little less gaudy.
“Please. I’m a Maou☆,” She said, “I have enough control over my power to stop my spell whenever I want.”
“Sure.” Abaddon didn’t believe her.
“Whatever…” Serafall humphed cutely before asking, “It was your fault for appearing here when I was talking to Rias-tan. I thought you were an assassin,” Abaddon glanced at Rias who had metaphorical question marks floating above her head. The girl still seemed to be in shock after witnessing the clash that destroyed the whole hall within moments.
“No, you just wanted to test me,” Abaddon mumbled before saying, “You knew about Sirzechs’ and Michael’s plan, right?”
“Busted☆,” Serafall acted cutely, “Sirzechs-chan wanted to see you get beat up☆~” She giggled, “But you seem to have pulled a surprise power-up out of your left nut.”
“Why my left nut…” Abaddon was confused.
“Because the other one’s always right☆~” Serafall spoke as Abaddon’s brain paused for a few seconds to reboot itself. Both he and Serafall looked at each other in utter silence for some time.
“And you wanted to test my strength yourself?” He asked after forcefully wiping his memory of the previous two seconds. Serafall sighed in relief after hearing Abaddon’s response.
She coughed before replying, “Yep, I did☆~ And you performed wonderfully☆,” Stars were bursting out of Serafall’s head as she spoke.
“Can you stop that?” Abaddon asked, “It’s very distracting…”
“No, I can’t stop jiggling my beautiful boobs when I talk,” Serafall pouted, “How rude.”
“I was talking about the stars …” Abaddon felt like he got lost in her rhythm as his gaze naturally went to her chest. The dress she was wearing was revealing quite a bit of her cleavage, giving Abaddon a nice view.
“Abaddon!” Rias finally seemed to have recovered from her shock, “What’s going on?” She seemed worried and quickly approached him, “Are you okay? You just got blasted by Serafall-sama’s attack.”
“She had no idea, huh?” Abaddon opened his arms and allowed Rias to examine him for injuries while asking Serafall.
“Not a peep,” She told him, “She would’ve beat Sirzechs-chan up otherwise☆~” She giggled.
“What an enticing proposition …” Abaddon smiled before wrapping his arms around Rias’ frame in the middle of her examination, causing her arms to get stuck between them. He looked down at Rias’ head before saying, “I’m fine, she held back.” He told Rias.
“Are you sure?” She looked up at him with concern shining on her face.
“Yes, I’m perfectly fine.” He shook his head, “Are you both talking about something important? I’ll come pick you up later if that’s the case.” He asked Rias.
“Don’t worry, Abaddon-chan. You can take Little Red home☆~” Serafall answered instead of Rias, “We were just making some small talk.” She winked at him as more stars flew out of the side of her eye.
“Thanks, Serafall,” Abaddon said before a magic circle appeared under him and Rias, “How about I take you out for some coffee sometime?”
“Oh☆?” Serafall blinked cutely, “You have such guts to ask the cutest Maou out on a date☆~ And that too in front of your cousin-girlfriend☆~?” Serafall teased. Rias had just gained some angry momentum, but that all disappeared when Serafall called her Abaddon’s cousin-girlfriend. She only hid her face in his chest.
“Obviously.” Abaddon said, “I’m sure you’re curious how I could appear in this restricted space through a teleportation circle. As it turns out, I would love to discuss magic research with someone as cute as yourself.” He said, making Serafall’s eyes widen with a pleasant surprise. She was indeed curious but was a little shy about asking Abaddon since he was considered a junior.
“I’m looking forward to it then, Abaddon-chan☆~,” Serafrall said as Abaddon and Rias both disappeared from their spot with a glow.
