Chapter 37: The protagonist who wants to pick up the heroine!
"No... Rias, Akeno... Ah... Why?"
"...."
"Why are you guys with that bastard!?"
"...."
In a messy bedroom and many porn DVDs lying on the floor.
The sun was already shining outside, but his host was still sleeping and even had a nightmare that he didn't need to check what kind of nightmare it was because he already knew from his host's babbling while sleeping.
Red Dragon Emperor, Ddraig sighed. Since what happened yesterday, his host had suffered a mental attack and he had gone straight home to lock himself inside his bedroom.
Issei's face now even looked pale and he seemed to be struggling in his sleep.
Pathetic....
Is this the host of the Red Dragon Emperor who in his previous life had defeated many powerful enemies in this universe and became the strongest despite dying at the hands of enemies from other universes?
Ddraig was disappointed, he was upset with Issei who became like this just because of some woman.
"Partner, wake up!"
He couldn't take it anymore and decided to wake up his host.
"Rias... Stop, stop licking that bastard's dick. Ah! Ah!!"
"Partner! Hey, it's already morning. Hurry up and get up!"
Ddraig's voice echoed inside Issei's head. And of course the brown-haired boy gasped and finally woke up from his sleep.
"Ha... Ha... It was... Just a dream? Right, what happened yesterday must have been a dream. Rias, Akeno...and even Sona actually never did that kind of thing with Eiji Seiya."
"Yeah hahaha it was just a dream!"
Issei's originally pale and gloomy face finally regained its color and now he was even laughing happily.
"...."
Ddraig wanted to say that what happened yesterday was not a dream. The red-haired girl, Rias Gremory along with the other girls actually served the man named Eiji Seiya.
But seeing Issei's improved mentality after deceiving himself. He chose to keep quiet and let nature take its own course.
"Ddraig, I just had a bad dream, right? You saw it too."
"Ugh... Yes, yes... When you sleep, you do have nightmares. So I woke you up, partner."
"Just as I suspected. It was just a dream! Hahaha! By the way thanks for waking me up, Ddraig!"
"Yeah, um... As long as you're happy, partner."
Although Ddraig's tone today was a little unusual.
Issei ignored that, or rather he tried to think positively and was glad that what happened yesterday was actually just his nightmare.
Probably after coming home from school yesterday. Although it didn't make sense considering the power he had now, he was probably too tired yesterday and in fact he went straight home after finding out Rias wasn't in her club.
He also remembered Ddraig at that time suggesting to try again another time. At that time he must have been persuaded and listened to what Ddraig said.
"...." Ddraig rolled his eyes in the mindscape.
At that time you clearly rejected my idea!
You chose to go looking for Rias in the student council room and you had a mental attack right then and there because of what you saw!
Of course, he couldn't say this. If he said it, Issei would definitely go back to being that pathetic person again that annoyed him.
After waking up. Issei immediately rushed to take a shower and after that he went downstairs.
Looking at the calendar attached to the wall showed that today was a red date due to a certain holiday.
School was of course off and he wondered what he should do today?
Play with Matsuda and Motohama? Well to be honest he now rarely played with those two and only interacted with them at school.
After all after everything that happened in his previous life. Other than the women in his harem and his parents. Issei was now quite indifferent to his other friends like Matsuda and Motohama.
So no, he had no interest in playing with those two.
Then what should he do? How about going to Rias right now and applying to become one of her peerage?
After all, what happened yesterday was just his nightmare.
Now he was sure Rias was still waiting for the handsome prince who would save her from a political marriage and that handsome prince was of course himself.
Just like in his previous life.
"Partner, you still haven't given up on that idea?"
Ddraig felt his head hurt a little because of the stupid idea Issei had.
Besides, what happened yesterday wasn't just your nightmare!
It was actually real!
You want to go again to look for that red-haired girl? Do you want to have another mental attack?
As expected. Maybe it's better to tell Issei that what happened yesterday was really real?
"Why should I give up on my idea, Ddraig? Getting back girls like Rias in my harem is important to me!"
"I can't give up! Rias must be waiting for me too!"
Waiting for you? That red-haired girl? Partner, you're too confident!
Ddraig sighed again.
He felt that Issei's brain were a bit troubled.
"Partner, what exactly happened yesterday..."
He was about to say what actually happened yesterday was real, but suddenly Issei who had just finished the breakfast his mother had made gasped.
"Be quiet for a moment Ddraig. I suddenly remembered something."
"...."
Maybe you finally realized what happened yesterday was real?
Ddraig originally thought that way, but it seemed like he had overestimated Issei's brain circuits.
"Around this time. In my previous life. If I'm not mistaken...one of the girls in my harem..."
So this is what you remember!? A girl?
Ddraig who knew what his host was thinking certainly now knew what exactly Issei was remembering.
At this moment, Issei's excited inner voice was also heard by the heroines.
{around this time it should be Asia, one of the girls in my future harem has already been expelled from the church and she is wandering aimlessly}.
{She is also being tricked by that bastard Astaroth and that group of bitch crows.}
{The same as in her previous life. Asia, don't worry. I will save you! I'll bring you back to my family and we'll be together again hehe... *Oops* I'm almost drooling.}
"...." The heroines, especially Rias, Akeno and Sona were confused.
Didn't Issei have a mental attack?
His voice didn't sound depressed, he actually sounded more energized today.
{Rias, Akeno and... Sona too. Oh and Koneko. Hehehe... You guys, wait for me! Even though I'm going to pick up Asia first. I definitely won't forget you guys!}
{Rias, because yesterday I didn't get to find you and instead had a nightmare that you, Akeno and Sona were doing perverted things with that white-haired bastard in front of my eyes.}
{I know it was just a nightmare. Hey... It's a good thing I didn't misunderstand you guys. Don't worry, I won't give up on you guys either!}
"!!!"
Put aside the other heroine, but the girls whose names were mentioned by Issei had ugly expressions at the moment and even looked dumbfounded by how strange the protagonist's brain was!
You... How can you think what happened yesterday was a dream!
You said it was a nightmare? No, it was real!
...
On the other side.
Sitting on the sofa in front of the TV.
"...."
Eiji knew some protagonists out there did sometimes have brain problems such as thinking the bad things that happened to them were nightmares when they woke up the next day.
Besides Issei, many protagonists he had seen in many novels also did the same annoying thing as that.
So for what Issei said in his inner voice. He was not surprised at all and was even more interested in the girl named Asia that Issei mentioned.
Asia? If he remembered correctly in the original work it must have been a blonde nun with innocent attributes that were probably no less innocent than Lala.
Asia Argento. In contrast to Lala's cheerful innocent beauty, the blonde-haired girl was a miserable innocent beauty.
?{Host, if you want to tell a story please don't forget to activate your inner voice so as not to miss the reward.}
Miss System meowed, but Eiji laughed at her.
"Inner voice? Oh yeah. Okay, although I actually feel it's only a matter of time before I become very OP with the reward I got yesterday."
"And I feel like I've gotten enough rewards, but I won't refuse the good things I can get."
?{.....}
The golden-haired little girl somewhere groaned.
"Ugh... This guy started again..."
"His confidence is starting to shoot through the sky again because of what I accidentally gave him."
She sighed, she should not have panicked so much with her host's acumen to guess her background.
Although she was not the Goddess of the Universe or anything like that.
But hearing a lot of wild guesses crossed her host's mind.
She panicked because it was so close!
Her host almost guessed correctly about his background by accident!
What's scary about her host isn't his intelligence because he usually likes to pretend to be stupid, but what's scariest is that he's too sharp in many details that people like the protagonist usually can't think of.
Miss System slightly regretted giving her host such an outrageous gift yesterday. It wasn't a big deal really, just a little too soon.
What her host got. It was actually a Character Card, but the problem was that the Character Card belonged to character....
Well her host will show it sooner or later anyway.
Eiji raised his eyebrows, he felt someone was pretending to be mysterious.
Was it Miss System? Maybe it was just his imagination.
This person....
Miss System doesn't understand how sharp her host is.
?{Host, quick to complain about the plot.}
She can only distract him.
"*Sigh* Looks like I have work again today. Or rather since when do I work as the one who has to keep thwarting the plot?"
?{Host.}
"...."
Because Miss System was urgent, Eiji thought for a moment and said through his inner voice.
[Asia? Asia Argento? I know that girl!]
?{.....}
"...."
The heroines, especially Lala who was actually sitting beside Eiji while hugging him spoilingly; raised her ears without taking her gaze off the cartoon airing on TV titled "The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run".
This cartoon entertainment on earth was fun to watch, especially in the morning after breakfast and then watching it with her fiancé.
Peke even watches quietly on another chair while charging herself into an electric plug near the TV.
She felt that today was very beautiful and peaceful, but her fiancé seemed to be busy with something again.
Even so, she wasn't upset or angry, instead she was curious and interested in what her fiancé would do this time to thwart the protagonist's plans?
Actually, without her or the heroines realizing it.
The inner voice was like one of their entertainment to know what kind of drama was going on between Eiji and the Protagonist.
[It is true that according to the current timeline Asia has most likely been expelled from the church because of the cunning plan made by the devil she once saved.]
[As a girl who grew up in a closed environment like the Church since she was a child. Asia is too innocent and naive.]
[After being expelled by those shameless Church people she didn't even hate those people and instead blamed herself.]
[She even regarded the devil of the Astaroth family, Diodora Astaroth who was actually pretending to be hurt when she helped him as a good person and believed him when that person gave her the address of the abandoned Church.]
[That church actually contains Raynare's group of fallen angels who are basically the headquarters of the fallen angels hiding in Kuoh.]
[Diodora Astaroth cooperated with that group of fallen angels because of his disgusting hobby of collecting and destroying innocent nuns. It just so happens that his target this time is Asia, who is perfect for his disgusting hobby].
[Raynare's group was also interested in Asia because the girl possessed the Sacred Gear Twilight Healing that could heal the wounds of any person or creature quickly. As a Sacred Gear thief, Raynare would also definitely not miss out on stealing Asia's Sacred Gear before throwing the girl to Diodora.]
"...." The heroines were dumbfounded, they didn't expect the plot this time to be quite so dark.
There were also quite a few people involved so far just for an innocent girl who was expelled from the Church.
But the heroines like Rias and Sona's group understood how important Asia was because the girl had Twilight Healing!
Putting aside what kind of disgusting purpose Diodora Astaroth has for targeting Asia. Fallen angel groups like Raynare's must be greedy for the Sacred Gear the girl has!
Because Raynare's group was some sort of terrorist in their territory. After know where the group's headquarters was. Rias and Sona certainly couldn't stay silent.
Eiji didn't know Rias and Sona had started gathering their peerage to attack the Raynare group headquarters.
Even if he knew, he wasn't worried because the one who would be harmed was definitely Raynare's group. After all, the difference in strength was obvious, Rias and Sona would definitely be fine unless there was an unexpected situation.
If an unexpected situation happened, it wouldn't be too late for him to intervene after he left hidden marks on Rias, Sona and even Akeno's bodies after what they did in the student council room yesterday.
The girls of course didn't know about it.
This was just one of the methods driven by how protective and possessive Eiji was of the girls he considered his women.
Even Lala actually had a hidden mark of hers that he made using one of Varvatos' magic.
But put that aside.
[In the original work, Asia did become one of Issei's women. The girl depended on Issei and lived in his house after being expelled from the church and before she was kidnapped by Raynare's group].
[Because it's a harem franchise filled with ecchi fanservice. Of course there are a lot of perverted things that happen after Asia lives with the protagonist, but it's just limited to looking at and holding breasts because Issei in the original work is too herbivorous.]
[But the current Issei is different. From his previous inner voice, I knew that the protagonist wouldn't hesitate to fuck the naive and innocent Asia after successfully persuading her to live in his house.]
[Hey protagonist. I'm not letting you succeed! Anyway, aside from me being a little worried about that girl named Asia Argento. It's my duty to thwart the protagonist's every plan.]
[So I have nothing else to do but move, right?]
"....." The heroines.
Everything you said sounds okay and gives a lot of information as well as spoilers.
But that last one...
Why do I feel like you sound tsundere?
Is it hard to admit that you're also interested in saving a damsel in distress?
?{My host has many attributes, one of which is tsundere. Thank you and please bear with it.}
"I'm too lazy to deny, but Miss System. Who are you thanking and um...talking to?"
{You won't understand, host.}
"Are you replying to me with what I said a week ago?"
Eiji was dumbfounded, he didn't expect his system to take revenge on him like this.
"By the way, Lala what are you doing?"
The pink-haired girl now stopped watching cartoons and sat on his lap while facing him.
Both of their faces were very close and they were staring at each other.
Lala pecked his lips naturally before saying, "Eiji, I'm coming with you!"
"Where do you want to come with me, Lala? I haven't even said anything about going somewhere."
Why did Lala know he was going?
Was it a woman's sixth sense or something?
?{....}
At times like this, Miss System sometimes got suspicious and wondered if her host was pretending to be stupid or really stupid?
