Volume 2 Chapter 31 - The Gremory Peerage

"Akeno-san, we found them." Tsubaki stood at the top of the building overlooking the while shopping district.

"What are they doing?" Akeno asked while she sets up the magic circles inside Kisuke's shop. She also inspected the whole place one more time with her own eyes and found nothing except for how unmoving the elderly lady is while manning the shop. If not for her breathing, Akeno will think that the lady is dead.

"They seem to be shopping for daily necessities and having fun for once in a while." Tsubaki fixed her glasses and reported them.

"A date? They skipped school to go on a date!?" Akeno couldn't believe what she is hearing, especially the other person is the stoic Koneko.

"No, there is another person with them. A dark skin black-haired beauty that is the same age as Kisuke Urahara. If I were to give my honest opinion, it looks like a family outing as Koneko-san is also very close to this woman." Tsubaki can't help but fix her glasses again as she said that, after all, she also knows Koneko's personality, and seeing her laugh and smile with people outside the Sitri and Gremory Peerage is pretty unbelievable for her.

"A family outing? Send me a video feed." Akeno's mouth twitches.

Tsubaki didn't say anything else and manipulated her magic circle to send a video feed to Akeno.

"H-how?" Akeno saw three figures who are talking happily. Koneko, who is one of the three figures is laughing and smiling like a normal kid of her age.

She knows for sure that Koneko can't express herself properly or even act due to her past trauma. She took a closer look at Koneko and saw that she is genuinely happy.

Akeno felt happy for her and also a little jealous as someone they didn't know managed to open her heart. The relieved expression Koneko puts up sometimes also puzzled her greatly. She would have to show this to Rias first before making any further decisions.

Akeno finished up after hiding numerous magic circles all over the shop and went back to school to report what happened today.

--------------------

After school.

Rias Gremory heard a knock on the door of the clubroom while she is doing some reports that will be sent to the Underworld.

"Come in."

The door opened and Akeno came in.

"Rias." Rias looked up and saw Akeno's serious expression.

"What happened?" Rias furrowed her brows and stopped what she is doing.

"Before I make my report, please take a look at this." Akeno snapped her fingers and the television in the room turned on by itself. The flat-screen TV showed a video of Kisuke, Yoruichi and Koneko happily talking and playing around.

Rias blankly looked at the screen until it turned black and the video stopped playing.

Rias turned to Akeno with an incredulous looked and asked, "How?"

"Right? I have the same question as you." Akeno shook her head with a wryly smile.

"Tell me everything that you saw." Rias stood up and looked outside the window.

Akeno narrated everything from the moment she summoned her familiars. She showed up in front of them and released a magic wave to disrupt any complicated spells that affected the mind.

"I see. If all this is true, then I am happy for Koneko and I should be thankful to him and this unknown lady." Rias let out a long sigh and turned to Akeno.

"What should we do now." Akeno was at lost.

"Continue monitoring him. We didn't get any evidence that he is manipulating Koneko but we still can't rule out the possibility. I don't want to take any chances if it is about the safety of my precious servants." Rias walked back to her desk and sat back down.

"And if we're wrong?" Akeno couldn't help but worry.

"I'll apologize personally and I'll be in his debt for taking care of Koneko." Rias smiled lightly, "I really hope we're wrong."

Akeno also finally smiled and started preparing some tea for Rias and other club members that are about to come.

After a few minutes, a knock on the door was heard. Getting permission to enter, a young man came in.

He is a handsome young man with short blond hair, blue eyes and a mole underneath his left eye.

He wears the Kuoh Academy boys' school uniform, which consists of a black blazer with white accents over a white, long-sleeved dress shirt with a black ribbon on the collar, matching black pants, and brown dress shoes.

"Good evening, Buchou, Akeno-san." He greeted the two.

"How did it go, Yuuto?" Rias turned her head towards the newcomer and asked.

The young man sat down on the couch and Akeno placed a cup of tea in his front.

This man Yuuto Kiba, Rias Gremory's Knight.

"Thank you Akeno-san. The fallen angel didn't make a move but they are going to have a date tomorrow." Yuuto made his report and drank the tea.

"Ara ara, fufu."

"She'll probably do it tomorrow." Rias leaned on her chair and smiled.

"Is he going to be our new comrade?" Yuuto asked his master.

"It still depends on him," Rias replied.

"By the way Buchou, it seems that this Issei Hyoudou is a good friend of Kisuke Urahara since childhood," Akeno spoke from the side.

"Kisuke Urahara? You mean that guy?"

"Hmm? You know him, Yuuto?" Rias also drank her tea.

"Yeah, I mean only a few people don't know about him. He's pretty famous in school, though not in a good way. And Akeno-san probably knows the basics about him."

"Tell me what you know." Rias urge him to speak more.

"Let's see, he's the known leader of 'The Four Heavenly Perverts' who is known to do all kinds of perverted things, most are petty things, however."

"There is something like that in our school?" Rias looked at him with her mouth twitching.

"Sona-kaichou probably knows more about him."

"Sona?"

"Right, I forgot to tell you something Rias-buchou due to Koneko's issue. I heard from Tsubaki-san that Sona-kaichou wants to take him as her Knight." Both Rias and Yuuto are shocked after hearing this.

"Why? I thought that he is a mage and her Bishop Pieces are already in use. I'll understand if it is Room though." Rias is confused.

"It seems that he has a sword type Sacred Gear, although a weak one, he is very skilled at using it that he is able to outrun Sona-kaichou's Knight." Akeno continued.

"Now that you mentioned Sona-kaichou, there are also rumors floating around that Kaichou also fell victim to his perverted antics," Yuuto muttered from the side.

"W-what?" Both Akeno and Rias were speechless.

"What the hell is this guy. He's giving me too many headaches." Rias pressed her temple and sigh.
