That day was Saturday so I had no school so I went to buy groceries in the convenience store after breakfast.
When I came back I heard a sound of laughing in the room so I went there. I found Mom, Asia and Rias looking at a photo album.
“And this is a picture of Akira when he was in grade school”, said my Mom.
“......Small Akira”, said Rias, staring at the photo intently. Her cheeks were red.
“......Akira when he was a child, Akira when he was a child, Akira when he was a child, Akira when he was a child......”, she kept muttering. But she seems satisfied.
“I think I know how Buchou-san feels!”, said Asia grabbing Rias’s hand, her eyes were sparkling.
“So you also know how I feel. I’m so happy”, said Rias happily. Both of them were in their own world.
What’s wrong with those two? Are they pedophiles? Shota-con’s? I felt a shiver in my body.
I asked, “Mom, what are you doing?”.
All three of them looked up. Mom said, “Ah, Akira you have returned. Rias-san said that she wanted to see some of your old pictures so I was just showing her your childhood pictures”.
“I see”, I said. “Akira you looked so cute as a child”, said Rias. “Yes, Akira-an”, said Asia. Both of them had starry eyes.
“I see”, I said without much enthusiasm. They sensed it and dropped it.
Anyway, the rest of the day went normally. At night the three of us slept together again.
The next day. Today was my dress with Rias. Rias wore a light pink dress and looked very beautiful and I wore a navy blue shirt and black pants.
I told Rias, “You look beautiful”. Rias smiled and blushed and said, “You look good too”.
Asia was sulking before we went out.
We spent the date by visiting various shops buying clothes and Rias bought many anime merch. Seriously, like she bought a lot of merch.
She is more of an otaku than I thought.
We also visited the arcade to play some games. During all this time Rias clung to my arm. By the way I was carrying all the purchases. And boy they were heavy, I would not have been able to carry so much if I were human.
After sometime we decided to go to a café for lunch. I sensed someone following us all this time. I sneakily turned back and saw that it was Asia. Sigh, that girl.
Rias must have noticed it too but she didn’t say anything.
We then went to an open air cafe and ordered food. After our food was served Rias began to talk.
“Thank you for today’s date, I really enjoyed myself”, said rias cheerfully.
“I am glad you liked it”, I said with a smile.
“By the way Akira I need to tell you something”, said rias seriously.
“Yes, what is it?”, I asked.
“Well, it’s not a cause of concern but I think you must know”, said Rias.
“What is it?”, I asked.
“Well I got to know from onii-sama. Beelzebub-sama said that your evil piece is a mutation piece”, said Rias.
“Mutation piece? But when did he even examine me?”, I asked shocked.
“When Beelzebub-sama saw our battle with Riser. He thought there was something unusual about your power. So he gave onii-sama a device to check you. You just had to be near it for it to be able give a reading, that’s why you didn’t see it”, said Rias.
I said, “I see. But why is mine a mutation piece though?”.
“Well, Beelzebub-sama said it may be because of the power of your scared gear. The piece shouldn’t have integrated so easily cause it is so powerful, so it probably changed during the integration automatically”, said Rias.
“I see”, I said. Hmm, it does make when you put it that way. But wasn’t most of the energy compensated by the energy of my soul from the dimensional gap? I see there was still excess energy.
Well anyway, it’s good that it worked.
It’s a plus that it is a mutation piece actually, it probably explains my high demonic power.
“Just to be sure. Being a mutation piece means that I have more demonic power than a normal [Rook] correct?”, I asked.
“Yes”, answered Rias.
After that we chatted normally and then proceeded back home.
Walking back Rias suddenly stopped. I was surprised and asked, “What’s the matter Rias?”.
Rias looked at me and smiled and said, “Nothing. I want to again express how happy I am for today’s date”.
I scratched my head and smiled and said, “Like I..umph”/ Before I could finish saying, there were soft lips on my mouth, preventing me from saying anything.
Rias had kissed me suddenly and wrapped her hands around. I was started for a second but then I responded and put my arms around her too.
Like this our date ended, amid the beautiful setting sun. Though I heard a muffled crying sound from somewhere close, but neither of us paid any attention to it, we just concentrated on each other.
For those that do not know...A mutation piece is about twice as strong as a normal piece..hence Akira is slightly stronger in strength and defense than a queen, has about as much demonic power as a bishop and is slightly slower than a knight....In chess the queen is worth 9 points and a rook is worth 5, so with that logic its defense would be like a 10 if that helps those not familiar with the value.
So I was just thinking, what do you think would have happened to Rias and her peerage if Issei didn't take the summoning circle paper from Rias's familiar. Issei would have died of course but what about the rest of her peerage and herself? Would they have survived the later attacks? I mean it was pure luck after all.
@Newbie101
If I had to theory-craft a bad situation then... Asia would have died then been reincarnated by nun-rapper. Rayner would have Twilight Healing. Rias would have had to marry Chicken wing and she and her peerage would go back to the underworld [forced]. Then the Fallen would have started a war using Sarifalls sister and the Peace treaty would not even happen. Sona and her peerage would die. Rias and her peerage under the hands of Flaming turkey would be miserable, because he was very argent. So ya without Issei in canon and Akira in this AU, Rias and her girls would be absolutely miserable and the world would be in chaos. IMO.
@Harem-Fan Very true. Plus Issei's hometown would have been destroyed as that's how Kokabiel wanted to the start the war.
Issei's insane luck and perversion saved everyone.
@Newbie101
Ya the part when I said Sona dies was meant to be implied about Kokabiel invading and blaming the church.
Rias would have missed it due to her Honeymoon/bed-training by Rizer.
@Harem-Fan Honestly though who dreams of touching a girl's breast while dying?A normal person would think of their parents. Issei's mind is something else.
But it's alright I guess as it saved him, but it was also incredibly lucky that he thought of Rias, if he had thought of Akeno things would have been different as she cannot reincarnate him nor can she use the teleportation portal as it's mostly used for Gremory peerage.
Even if she called Rias it might have been too late before she arrives as the sacred gear can detach from the soul after the person dies.
So even if Rias reincarnated him then(though she would have less incentive to) Issei would have been utterly useless.
@Newbie101
If Akeno showed up to the scene her quote would be..."Oh what a pitty, poor boy."
