NOVEL NEXT Chapter 77: Anticipate
Kuoh Academy, Occult Research Club——
“She is the girl you rescued from that Stray Clergy?”
Looking at Asia, who was a little nervous, Rias’s gem-like eyes couldn’t help but flash a few hints of color.
Whether it’s the aura, Spirit Power, or the primal chaos-free eyes, the young girl in front of her exudes an aura of holiness and purity, and even Rias can’t help but sigh in awe of the fact that she is worthy of being Church’s Saintess.
“Ah, she is also the girl who was banished here by those stupid guys.”
“Asia, they are Rias, Akeno, and Koneko Chan. Say hello to them.”
Tenraku said while throwing an encouraging look at the girl.
“Hello everyone, I’m Asia·Argento, just call me Asia, please take care of me.”
“Ara Ara, what a good girl, Asia, let’s get along well in the future.”
Asia introduced herself, and Rias and Toujou Koneko also responded, Akeno directly hugged Asia, and rubbed the girl’s white jade-like face.
Although she was shy, but everyone here was very friendly as Tenraku-san said, and Asia gradually let go of her anxiety.
“Are you planning to transfer them to school?”
Looking at Asia who was shy and Gasper who was nervous and frightened, Rias almost guessed Tenraku’s plan.
“Ah, yes, Asia needs to be enrolled in the school and Gasper stays at home all day long, and he will become useless if this continues.”
Tenraku replied with a smile on his face, but after thinking of something, Tenraku said again:
“By the way, Rias, are you interested in letting Asia and Gasper be in your Peerage?”
Tenraku’s words made the room quiet, and everyone looked at Tenraku.
“You have already seen Gasper’s ability. Although he is a foolish boy, he has the [Forbidden Balor View]. As long as he activates it, he can remove all the time in his sight.”
“Asia also has the Sacred Gear [Twilight Healing], which can heal all injuries, and her ability to use that Sacred Gear is far beyond the other owners of [Twilight Healing].”
“Although these two are not good at fighting, they are very suitable for Bishop.”
“How about it, Rias, are you interested?”
Akeno grinned while Koneko looked at Gasper and Asia from time to time, and Rias looked at Tenraku with a complicated expression on her face:
“Why are you helping me?”
Tenraku is right. Although Gasper and Asia don’t have much fighting ability, their abilities are very suitable as Bishop.
No, it should be said to be super rare!
Even Rias, who has always had a very high vision, couldn’t help but be moved…
“It is not necessary to say, we are the betrothed, help my betrothed is the right thing to do, isn’t it?”
Tenraku shrugged and replied.
“But I want to defeat you, and then dissolve our engagement!” Rias spoke with a blushed face.
“But I don’t think you can defeat me. You would definitely become my wife in the future.”
Tenraku gave a playful smile as he looked at Rias.
“You…!!!”
The corners of her eyes throbbed and her jade-like fists clenched. Rias felt that the momentary emotion she felt just now was really not necessary!
The corners of Tenraku’s mouth raised slightly as he admired the puffy and cute look of Gremory’s princess, Tenraku was happy, but he knew that it was enough, and said:
“Well, don’t get angry, I am just kidding, I have never underestimated Rias.”
“On the contrary, You are one of the only people I recognize.”
“As for why I want Gasper and Asia to be in your Peerage, there is also a reason for that. After all, I have gathered my Peerage and can no longer conclude a contract with them and it would be a pity to waste their power like this.
If they can become the members of your Peerage then they will be able to participate in the Rating Game and they will also have more opportunities for growth and train.”
“Of course, this is only my personal proposal. If Gasper and Asia are not willing then I will not force them. They are my most important family and friends. They are all free to do what they want. If you want them to become the members of your Peerage then you would have to depend on your own ability, Rias.”
Tenraku said his true thoughts with a serious expression on his face.
The eyes of Akeno and others were all shining and Gasper was even more touched. It turned out that Lord Tenraku did everything for his good. Just now he thought that Lord Tenraku was going to abandon him again.
There was also an unspeakable emotion in Rias’s heart. She breathed out a little and took a deep look at Tenraku:
“I know……”
“I will make Asia and Gasper both recognize me, I will let them make me their King and Master, and then I will borrow their power to defeat you!”
In fact, Rias doesn’t hate Tenraku. On the contrary, just as Tenraku recognized her, she also recognizes Tenraku, who was once weak and persistent but has now risen like a Miracle with his own efforts.
Although she would occasionally have the thought that it would be nice to let this guy become her Husband but sure enough, Gremory’s glory and arrogance did not allow her to give in so easily.
She just didn’t want to lose to him by throwing away the marriage contract!
“Then I will look forward to it, Rias, don’t let me down…”
In response to Rias’s determined gaze, Tenraku also replied with a smile on his face.
Sure enough, this kind of girl with self-belief and a noble soul is most fascinating!
“Gasper, Asia, let me take you through the admissions process.”
The decision was made and Rias offered to take the two to the Student Council room to help them with the admissions process.
The smart girl naturally wouldn’t foolishly ask the two of them if they would join her Peerage. She would get to know them and get acquainted with them first and let them put aside their defenses and bring them closer to her and then reveal her purpose.
Gasper and Asia couldn’t help but look at Tenraku, who naturally nodded.
“Well, please take care of us, Elder Sister Rias.”
“Me, me too…”
After getting permission, Rias called Koneko and took Gasper and Asia to the Student Council room to handle their admission process. Akeno stayed and sat in Tenraku’s arms.
“Ara Ara, it’s obvious that you want to help Rias but you’re still giving her reasons that she can’t refuse, you are really cunning.”
Akeno said with a wicked smile on her face while hugging Tenraku’s neck.
“In any case, she is also my betrothed.”
Tenraku replied while touching his nose.
“And what about me, Rias is Tenraku betrothed, then what am I to you?”
Akeno stared at Tenraku with a bright smile on her face, it looked like she would be jealous if Tenraku answered is unsatisfactory.
Thinking back to the helpless and lonely girl, and looking at the increasingly seductive girl in front of him, Tenraku couldn’t help but sigh in his heart, and then leaned to Akeno’s ear:
“Akeno is going to be my wife, isn’t it already agreed upon…”
“Tenraku…”
Akeno looked at Tenraku with fascination.
Both of them stared at each other and then their lips gradually came close together…
