Chapter 93: Lady Sitri who pleaded with her future son-in-law
"Sona is smarter than her older sister in choosing a man."
Lady Sitri gazed at the silver-haired and blue-eyed boy in her daughter\'s arms. She unconsciously spoke her heart which was heard by everyone in the room except her sleeping husband.
Noticing the doctors, her daughter and her daughter\'s fiancé looked at her after she said that.
"....." Lady Sitri blushed slightly, but she quickly picked up her mentality as hostess Sitri by feigning a cough, walked up to her daughter and said to the silver-haired boy. "Nice to meet you, Eiji-kun. I\'m sorry we didn\'t have time to make preparations to welcome you."
"My daughter also seems to have just found out you\'re coming to our house. She didn\'t even dress up properly when her fiancé visited her."
When her mother said this.
"Ahh!" Sona looked at her own appearance that was only wearing a normal dress, she wasn\'t dressed up, she had no makeup at all. Her slightly pale face and panda eyes didn\'t help either, but made her feel like an ugly duckling---even though she was the heroine.
She released herself from Eiji\'s embrace and lowered her head in shame. Oh no... Eiji, what if that boy\'s fondness for her decreased because of this?
Earlier when she had just heard Eiji\'s inner voice saying things about the plot, the creature called loose soul that had somehow possessed her that made her confused, and the boy himself coming to cure her father. She didn\'t think about her appearance at all and rushed to hug her fiancé without any preparation.
Hearing the plot that Issei will come to cure her father and she will fall in love with him after that. Her natural reaction was disgust, especially when she just found out that a loose soul possessed her which made her so easily moved by Issei\'s actions in the plot. After hearing Eiji\'s inner voice yesterday where the boy seemed to be busy helping the heroine named Haruna, she naturally knew what a loose soul was.
No wonder this morning she felt her body became weaker than usual, and she felt her mood was so bad that she was stressed. Apparently there was another being inside her body? She patted her body and wondered how she could get the creature out of her body.
But putting that aside, right now she felt like finding a hole to cover up her ugly duckling-like appearance!
However, she felt a large, warm hand patting her head which made her squint her eyes. She knew it was Eiji\'s hand, and she felt this was the best head pat she had ever received in her life.
It felt so good! Even her tiredness and stress had inexplicably disappeared.
"It\'s okay. I didn\'t tell Sona that I was coming to visit her at her parents\' house."
"As for her appearance? She\'s still pretty without makeup, heh... She also looks cute with her panda eyes." Eiji said that with a gentle smile while looking at Sona which made Lady Sitri, and the doctors in the room look at him in slight surprise.
By the way while using his patting skills, he also instantly eliminated the loose soul inside Sona\'s body. As he said, this creature was not a problem for him. Since Sona was already basically his woman, he did not need to utilize the existence of the loose soul for his own benefit like he did with Haruna.
"Ara~ Sona, did you hear that? You\'re lucky to have Eiji-kun as your fiancé, if it was another man..." Lady Sitri seemed to be teasing her daughter.
"Mom, I know. Ugh... Me, I\'ll go to my room to dress up!" Sona was about to run away with a red face, but Eiji hugged her waist.
"Well...Sona, you don\'t have to do that."
"Eh Eiji, but! My appearance right now..." Sona wanted to say she looked ugly, she was not confident in appearance. She was worried that Eiji was just pretending to be fine with her current appearance, and actually he was...
[This girl... She\'s usually confident, why is she so panicked now just for not dressing up when I don\'t see her? Is it because of the loose soul in her body? But I already eliminated that thing in her body when I patted her head].
Eh, already? That loose soul was eliminated so easily from her body? She didn\'t even feel---oh wait, she finally understood why her body became lighter than before.
Sona was happy, she was touched by Eiji who secretly helped her. But still, she was still worried about that boy...
[Although Sona is still beautiful, but to eliminate the girl\'s worries about her appearance...]
"Ent Axis"
Eiji lightly rubbed Sona\'s face with his hand illuminated by green light. The girl was confused, but in an instant after he removed his hand from her face.
Lady Sitri and the doctors were again surprised. It was actually not unusual for someone, especially a devil to use healing magic. But the effect of their magic was nothing, it still couldn\'t compare to the healing effect provided by the Sacred Gear Twilight Healing which was said to be able to heal any wound easily in seconds. Their magic is also not comparable to the best healing items in the underworld such as Phoenix Tears.
Even so, it\'s not just about healing magic! In fact, Sona\'s previous condition was actually only caused by lack of sleep which made her skin and face look unhealthy. What the boy named Eiji did was not just healing, but it was more like rejuvenating and enhancing one\'s appearance!
"Sona, you..." Lady Sitri looked at Sona with envy.
Sona who realized that Eiji had done something to her looked at her mother in confusion. Unlike before, she did feel that her body became fresher than before. It\'s just that she was confused as to why her mother and even some doctors were looking at her with such a look? And her mother, why was she looking at her with envy?
"Mom, what\'s wrong? Eiji, just relieving all my fatigue, and making me feel better."
"Sona, you should look at yourself in the mirror. Eiji-kun, can you do that to me too?" Lady Sitri looked at her future son-in-law, no. She was looking at her son-in-law with an expectant gaze.
"???" Sona was confused, but she immediately walked to the other side of the room where there happened to be a mirror.
Eiji scratched his cheek, he looked at Sona\'s mother whose appearance was worthy of a woman who could give birth to heroines like Sona and Serafall.
In the original work, he had never seen her. But in this world, he finally knew what she looked like.
Gosh, my mother-in-law is so beautiful...
"Are you Sona\'s older sister? Nee-san, do you want to?"
As a good son-in-law, isn\'t it natural to make your mother-in-law feel young?
Lady Sitri smiled wider at hearing herself called "Nee-san". She remembered that she hadn\'t introduced herself that she was Sona\'s mother, she could understand that Eiji had misunderstood her identity, but she was happy that her appearance could still make a boy as handsome as Eiji consider herself young.
Her impression of the boy who became her daughter\'s fiancé increased by several points.
She closed her mouth while giggling before saying. "Oh my... I\'m actually Sona\'s mother, Eiji-kun, you misunderstood~"
Eiji pretended to be surprised to hear this. "Ah sorry, I thought you were Sona\'s older sister. You look young and very beautiful, so I misunderstood."
"Hehehe~ Eiji-kun, you\'re very kind. Would you like to drink something or eat first? By the way you can call me mom or Nee-san."
"Um... How about mother-in-law?"
"Uh why? You can call me mom or Nee-san, you know!"
Eiji was having fun with his mother-in-law, but at this moment Sona walked back to them with a happy expression. This girl, she didn\'t seem to be so sad about her father anymore after she improved her appearance using one of Anos\' spells that could rejuvenate people and make people look better.
If Sona previously scored 88 points as a heroine. Now she managed to score 90 points.
"Eiji! Eiji! You did this?" The girl with glasses looked even more beautiful than before.
The circles under her eyes had disappeared, her skin also looked very healthy, even her previously rather thin body was also starting to fill out. However, what made the girl most happy was her chest, now it was at least a C-cup!
Eiji nodded. "Yes, glad you\'re happy. But Sona... Who\'s lying on the bed? Is that your father?"
Sona who was originally happy and wanted to thank Eiji by kissing him froze.
When her fiancé came and made her more beautiful, she was too happy to forget that she was sad about her father\'s condition before.
She looked at her father, then looked at Eiji with a pleading look. "Right, Eiji. That\'s my father. He was affected by Sleep Disease that made him fall asleep and hasn\'t woken up after 5 days have passed."
"Eiji! Please! Can you help my father?!"
Lady Sitri also stopped joking, she led Eiji to stand beside the bed she even bowed slightly before saying. "Eiji-kun, the magic you used before. Is it also able to cure my husband? If it can, please do so."
Eiji certainly didn\'t refuse, it was just that he was a little awkward. He waved his hand, saying to his mother-in-law and at the same time also to his fiancée.
"Alright mother-in-law, you don\'t need to beg me like that. And Sona, I actually came here to cure your father. So don\'t worry, leave it to me."
"Eiji... Thank you!" Sona hugged her fiancé, with her breasts buffed, now the silver-haired boy could feel the softness pressing against his hand.
Eiji pretended to cough. "Sona. I haven\'t healed your father yet, so don\'t rush to thank me."
But the girl smiled and said while shifting her glasses slightly. "But I\'m sure you can do it. So why not?"
Seeing as these two are about to start a flirting session with each other...
"Cough, I\'m glad my daughter and son-in-law have a good relationship. Even so, can you guys do it later?"
Sona immediately let go of Eiji\'s arm which she was hugging.
Eiji sighed, he decided to ignore the gaze of Sona\'s mother who was looking at her own daughter with envy.
Although Sona\'s mother was very beautiful, but he was also not that cruel to give Sona\'s father a green hat.
¶{You sure you won\'t do it?}
"Miss System. Putting that aside, where is protagonist? He hasn\'t come until now!"
In the plot arranged by World\'s Will. Protagonist Issei did come to Sona\'s house after he finished his training which he actually knew from Alpha that the boy was training in a dragon\'s lair called Tiamat which had many treasures in it and one of them was a useful thing for Issei to increase his power.
In the original work, who is Tiamat? Tiamat is a female Dragon and the only female among the Five Great Dragon Kings. She is a Blue Dragon known as the Chaos Karma Dragon, and is one of the few active Dragons in the Highschool DxD franchise. Although she is not a heroine, her human form is no worse than a heroine. But putting that aside, he knew Tiamat had a bad relationship with Ddraig! So there was no way that woman would let Ddraig\'s hosts like Issei use the things inside her cave that were basically her treasure inventory!
Although Eiji didn\'t know the details, but Alpha said that this had something to do with Sirzechs. Well let him guess, Sirzechs must have bribed Tiamat with something! That woman loved treasure, so Sirzechs must have given her some treasure or something to tempt her into letting Issei train in her lair.
¶{Host, you seem to have forgotten there\'s no you in the plot.}
"So?"
¶{So your arrival now triggers the butterfly effect! Even so, protagonist will still come, it\'s just that he will come late}.
"....."
If that\'s the case, why should he bother waiting?
Eiji thought it was better to go ahead of Issei and not give him a chance at all!
He looked at the doctors, to be precise the three doctors who were actually busy using medical equipment to continue monitoring Sona\'s father\'s condition.
"All of you, back off."
The doctors looked at each other.
He was actually prepared for the doctors to doubt his abilities. Why? Because this kind of cliché usually happens in many novels when protagonist wants to cure someone.
Even if he had previously shown off a bit of his abilitie to make Sona feel better. Who knows these doctors have brain problems, and they...
"Of course Eiji-sama, please do."
"Yes, we leave Lord Sitri to you."
"Eiji-sama, please."
The doctors retreated, they stood at the far end of the room.
What the...
Eiji naturally looked at Sona.
"What what Eiji? Do you need something? If so, say so and I\'ll find it for you right away."
Sona, she smiled, her posture like a wife who wanted to take her husband\'s things.
But Sona... That\'s not it.
"Nothing. You and mother-in-law should also step back a little."
Sona and even Lady Sitri complied.
It was just that by the time Sona was standing some distance away from Eiji and her father, she finally understood why Eiji was looking at her earlier.
[Even those doctors have also been properly educated not to doubt me? Well... Sona, you did well. It\'s just that next time you might not have to work so hard to make sure everyone in Sitri territory knows about me.]
[Although I did not plan on giving the protagonist a chance. Although I\'m also not a protagonist who likes to pretend to slap the faces of people who doubt her. I... I feel like things are going too smoothly that I\'m a little uncomfortable! And protagonist, where are you?! I came to cut off your chance, but you haven\'t come until now!]
Sona: "???"
So you\'re complaining because everything went too smoothly?!
Isn\'t that nice?
A few days after you became my fiancee, I told everyone in Sitri territory that you were my fiancee. I even had people put up a lot of posters about your appearance so that people wouldn\'t mistake who you were if you suddenly came here. And actually it was also done so that my suitors would stop pursuing me because I already had a fiancé and he was a man who could make my suitors feel inferior by comparing their looks to his.
Although your appearance now seems to have changed a bit, and looks more handsome. Everyone can still recognize your appearance.
If it\'s someone else, they should be happy...
But here you are complaining?
Sona couldn\'t help but laugh, she suddenly giggled which made her mother look at her in confusion.
Lady Sitri was confused.
She understood Sona was very confident in her fiancé\'s ability to cure her father. But to make you laugh while staring gently at your fiancé\'s back in this situation...
Gosh, isn\'t a girl too crazy about her fiancé?
Even so, when thinking of her daughter\'s fiancé being Eiji.
She stared at Eiji\'s back and the green magic circle under his feet that covered him and her husband in a daze.
The doctors watching on the side were also watching in a daze. But unlike the reason for Lady Sitri\'s daze which was unknown. The reason they were in a daze was because it was their first time seeing such an intricate and beautiful healing magic circle.
As doctors, especially doctors who worked at Sitri\'s family hospital, they were also naturally able to perform healing magic. It was actually one of the requirements for ordinary devils like them to work at the Sitri family hospital.
But putting that aside, the Sitri heir\'s fiancé is amazing!
Aside from his looks, the man was also able to use healing magic at a level far better than the hospital\'s magical medical devices, Sacred Gear Twilight Healing and even Phoenix Tears!
Why did they feel Eiji\'s magic was better than all of the above? It was because at this moment, under the green light of the magic circle which had a special effect like luminous green leaves flying in the room.
From the medical device that could tell Lord Sitri\'s condition.
They could all see that Lord Sitri was showing signs of waking up!
...
Meanwhile.
In front of the gate.
The wild-looking waist-length brown-haired boy with bloodshot eyes and a face that could now be considered handsome stared at the gate of Sona\'s house with a smile.
He was wearing a tight red T-shirt under his athletic body, long black sweatpants, and white sneakers.
No matter where you looked, he looked like someone who had just finished working out.
The guard guarding the gate naturally walked up to the boy. He doubted the boy\'s appearance the first time he saw him and thought of sending him away.
"Boy, who are you? What are you doing here? This is Sitri\'s family residence! This is not a place where a random person like you can stay!"
"If you have no important business to do here, you\'d better leave!"
If Eiji saw this, he would be a little surprised because the one who shouted and chased away the person was one of the guards who was very friendly to him when he suddenly came.
Unlike when he welcomed him, when the one who came was the protagonist. Those guards were really acting according to the clichéd scripts in those novels!
That\'s right, the person who came and was currently standing in front of Sona\'s gate was Issei!
Issei had just completed his training in Tiamat\'s cave located in the depths of the Devil\'s Forest. It was still in the underworld, so he could also travel to Sona\'s house which was also in the underworld.
Actually, after he completed his training, it was precisely bathing in a pool filled with dragon\'s blood, which allowed him to increase his power quickly.
He suddenly had a vision where he healed Sona\'s father and after that Sona would fall in love with him. She left Eiji who had become her fiancé, and for the first time he managed to get revenge on the boy by stealing his woman.
Although at the time he was confused as to who gave him that kind of vision or image in his brain, he even asked Ddraig if he saw it too? To which the dragon replied no.
Even so, Issei chose to trust his intuition and immediately traveled to Sitri territory to do the same things as the vision he had gotten.
Looking at the guards who chased him away, he snorted and said: "Random people? I am Issei Hyudou! I am the Emperor of the Red Dragon! I came here to cure Lord Sitri!"
"Huh? So... Are you a doctor or something?" The guard at least needed to ask to be sure. Putting aside the boy\'s name which he clearly did not recognize, he was definitely not a famous character in the underworld. As for him calling himself the Red Dragon Emperor? He couldn\'t believe it!
However, Issei shook his head and arrogantly said: "I\'m not a doctor. But I can cure Lord Sitri of his Sleep Disease with my abilities!"
"You all better let me in, otherwise..."
Before he could finish his sentence, one of the guards hit him with a spear.
Issei quickly caught the spear with his hand and glared at the guard who attacked him.
"Why are you attacking me?!"
The guard snorted. "Isn\'t it obvious? You came from nowhere. Arrogantly wanted to enter the Sitri family residence and said you wanted to cure Lord Sitri even though you\'re not a doctor."
"Boy, you are a suspicious person. People like you are usually killed on the spot for daring to force their way into the Sitri family residence."
"Everyone! Surround and attack this boy!"
Instantly, the guards who were actually middle-class devils immediately surrounded Issei with magic spears in their hands.
Issei\'s face darkened when he saw this. It was true that what he did earlier seemed unreasonable, but the guards at Sona\'s house were too ferocious, right?
Actually he just wanted to be a little arrogant, especially after he was as strong as he was now. He thought these guards would immediately let him in after he called himself the Red Dragon Emperor, but they didn\'t and instead wanted to kill him on the spot!
{These guards! How dare they stop me and try to kill me? I already mentioned that I am Issei Hyudou! I am the Emperor of the Red Dragon! I came here to cure Sona\'s father!}
{But why don\'t these people distrust me? Suspect me so much? Damn it! This is a good chance to make Sona fall in love with me by curing her father! I can take revenge on Eiji by stealing his fiancee!}
{Since you guys want to stop me, don\'t blame me for being cruel! The guards at Sona\'s house, I\'ll kill them all!}
The heroines: "....."
It had been a long time since they had heard of this protagonist.
And the first thing they hear is Issei\'s cunning and evil plan to make a woman fall in love with him by curing the woman\'s father.
It\'s actually fine if people don\'t know Issei has an ulterior motive to help cure Sona\'s father.
But after knowing what the boy really wants... How can they not feel disgusted?
At school, precisely in the occult research club room during school breaks.
Rias already knew Eiji wasn\'t in school today because he went to the underworld to help Sona.
After hearing his inner voice earlier, she knew the problem Sona had and wondered why the girl didn\'t ask for her help? Even though she couldn\'t cure her father of Sleep Disease.
She sighed...
"Aren\'t we best friends? That girl always wants to solve her own problems."
Rias smiled wryly, she was just a little annoyed that her best friend didn\'t ask for her help when she had a problem.
"Luckily there\'s Eiji. So Sona\'s father should be healed, right? If it\'s Eiji, he can definitely do it."
This confidence... Not because of love, but the fact that Eiji had so much in him that she didn\'t know what how many things the boy could do.
As for the protagonist Issei whose inner voice was heard earlier? She didn\'t act much because she was used to hearing the protagonists say their disgusting plans.
She wouldn\'t even be surprised if Issei failed again and got slapped again by Eiji.
It\'s just that... Now she was staring at her Queen who was looking at the bracelet Lala had given her awkwardly.
"Akeno, why do you keep looking at my bracelet?"
"Rias, I remember you never wore bracelets as fashion before. I feel that your bracelet is unusual. Where did you buy it from?" The black-haired girl looked curious.
The two were actually having lunch in the club room and had been very relaxed until an inner voice suddenly invaded and made Rias comment.
"This bracelet? It\'s called an E-Linker." The crimson-haired girl smiled, she raised her hand as if showing off.
Akeno\'s lips twitched. Slightly regretting asking just to see the show-off expression on the girl\'s face.
"E-Linker? Don\'t tell me it has something to do with Eiji?"
When the black-haired girl heard that the bracelet had the letter "E" at the beginning of its name, she immediately thought of the white-haired boy.
Oh, she didn\'t know yet now that Eiji had silver hair. If she knew and saw the boy\'s current appearance...
If it was Akeno? What would she do?
Rias nodded with an excited smile on her face. "Un, this bracelet was actually made by Lala. It\'s very advanced. Akeno, do you want to know what it does?"
The bracelet was made by Lala?
Thinking of the pink-haired girl. Akeno remembered that girl was an alien and she was also a genius scientist. In addition, that girl was also Eiji\'s first fiancée who was often praised by Eiji in his inner voice which made her envious.
Of all the heroines.
The pink-haired girl was the most praised by Eiji so far. Even she, although it was unclear how she felt for the boy after all the perverted things they did, she could not help but feel sour in her heart when she heard the boy\'s inner voice praising a heroine to the skies.
She nodded at the crimson-haired girl\'s offer and was willing to hear what the function of the bracelet called "E-Linker" was. It was just that seeing what the bracelet\'s functions were, her lips twitched again.
No wonder Rias was so excited about the bracelet. In addition to the function of communication between the girls in Eiji\'s harem in a sophisticated way. It turned out that it could also be used to play virtual games that transferred the user\'s consciousness to the game world.
Akeno was a little envious when she heard how advanced it was, but that was it. She congratulated Rias for having the exclusive bracelet that the girls in Eiji\'s harem had.
But as she slowly ate her bento again, the crimson-haired girl suddenly said something that made her choke.
"Akeno! Since you\'re my best friend and queen, how about you also become one of Eiji\'s women? I don\'t mind."
"You used to say this kind of thing, but you seem to have forgotten. Come on, I\'ll help you seduce Eiji if you want!"
