Chapter 13: Protagonist who pretends

“Since you’ve lost, I hope you keep your promise. Senpai, I will return to class now.”

Saying that, Eiji got up from the sofa and walked out of the student council office.

Click

Hearing the sound of the door opening and closing.

Sona who was in a daze while staring at the chessboard finally came to her senses, looked around and asked. “Tsubaki, has Eiji-kun left?”

Tsubaki nodded with the camera in her hand. “Yes, he just left.”

“Sona, you lost. Do you want to keep your promise?”

Sona smiled wryly, she drank her cooled tea before saying: “Of course, I won’t force Eiji-kun to join my peerage anymore.”

“No, that’s not the promise I meant.”

“What do you mean Tsubaki? Oh…”

It seemed like Sona started to remember something and her face was shocked before gradually blushing.

Tsubaki grinned, she raised the camera in her hand playfully. “Don’t worry Sona, I’ve recorded the evidence of your defeat.”

“This way, your parents or older sister can’t even deny your defeat.”

“Tsubaki, you…”

Sona opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

I originally wanted to feign ignorance, but my Queen dared to make me unable to escape by recording evidence of my defeat.

Hate!

But honestly…

I wasn’t really reluctant, my heart even pounded knowing that a guy finally beat me in a game of chess.

That man was also around my age, had a handsome face and a mysterious power that should be strong as a time traveler.

This was even a hundred times better than the man who beat her being an old man or an ugly old monster!

Not many people her age could beat her in a game of chess.

But Eiji was an exception, he actually beat her at her own game.

If before she was tempted by Eiji only because of his appearance and power. Now, Sona really recognized that Eiji was really suitable to be her husband and she didn’t even refuse if told to marry him.

It’s just that there was a problem here.

“…Tsubaki, how do you think I should say the consequences for beating me in a chess game to Eiji?”

I even got rid of the title “kun” and said his first name directly. The other party is going to be her future husband after all!

Wouldn’t it make sense for the way of addressing him to be more intimate?

“That…” Tsubaki held her chin, about to help her think of something.

But, at this moment, the door of the student council office was opened or rather violently kicked in, causing both of them to flinch and turn their heads.

“Sona!”

A familiar red-haired figure walked into the room angrily.

Well who else if not Rias?

Sona got up from the sofa and stood opposite the red-haired girl.

“Calm Rias, don’t make a scene in my office.”

Hearing this, Rias snorted, her cold blue eyes looking directly into Sona’s violet eyes.

“Heh, you seriously said that?”

Sona raised her glasses slightly while pretending to be confused. “What do you mean?”

“Hehehe” Rias laughed angrily, I felt my blood pressure had gone up a lot today. “It’s okay, it’s okay you don’t want to admit your dirty tricks…”

“Actually, my coming here is just to confirm whether Eiji was successfully persuaded by you to join your peerage and I also want to tell you that all the members of your peerage led by Momo have been defeated by me.”

“Rias, you dare to hurt my peerage!? You’re too much!”

Sona’s magic leaked out, a sea-blue colored aura rising from her body. Her expression was extremely cold, even if the other party was her best friend, the red-haired girl was also her rival.

As long as Rias hurts her peerage seriously, I will also do the same to the red-haired girl’s peerage.

Rias raised her eyebrows, she smiled and said: “Sona, as the student council president. Don’t be so impulsive, you still remember the rules you suggested and we agreed on, right?”

“Also, I just asked my peerage to beat up Momo and the others with their fists.”

“We didn’t use any magic at all and just left them with a few bruises.”

“It was a fair fight because Momo and the others were also defending themselves after daring to block the door of my club.”

“Huh? Even so…” Sona wanted to argue, but Rias gave her a sharp look, leaving her speechless.

Damn, why do I feel Rias is so scary right now!

Aren’t you just a spoiled girl? Hmph!

“Hey this problem you started it first, okay? Me and my pitiful club members are victims of bullying by the student council president of this school.”

Rias hugged herself and lifted her large breasts with a fake pitiful expression.

“….” Sona.

It’s fine if you want to pretend to be a pitiful victim, but is it necessary to show off your breasts right in front of my eyes?

A tick mark appeared on Sona’s forehead, she stared at Rias’ breasts angrily and enviously.

Damn, it’s just a lump of fat!

Rias, you’re a cow!

But if I had that size, maybe Eiji would be more enthusiastic and greedy for my body, right?

Thinking of this, Sona regretted and wondered why the world was so unfair to a smart girl like her.

Obviously I’ve been studying and reading a lot of books since childhood.

I also exercise a lot to keep myself in good shape every day.

All the food and drinks I consume are also very nutritious.

But why!?

Where did all my hard work go?

Why doesn’t it grow as big as Rias!

“I admit this is my fault, Rias. Are you satisfied? It’s a measure I took to prevent my rival.”

Sona rolled her eyes, she sighed and was actually too lazy to argue with Rias, especially when the girl kept showing off how big her breasts were in front of her.

Just looking at it alone I already have the urge to slap that that fat blob.

“You admit that you deliberately told Momo and the rest of your peerage to block the door to my club?”

“Yes…”

“This dirty trick was done to prevent me from contacting Eiji before you, right?”

“Yes…”

Rias nodded in satisfaction, she smiled, happy to see Sona looking deflated.

My blood pressure dropped and I finally felt somewhat refreshed.

Sona’s lips twitched, she was a little annoyed to hear Rias call Eiji by his first name.

As Eiji’s future wife, although it hasn’t been confirmed yet, but she already considers Eiji as her man.

Hearing other girls, especially my own rival looks like a vixen eyeing her husband.

I have the urge to hit the other party’s head.

“Ahh! Sona, it hurts! What are you doing!?”

The red-haired girl, rubbing her head with an expression of annoyance and pain.

I don’t know why Sona suddenly dared to hit my head.

Is she crazy?

Believe it or not, if you don’t give a good reason. I’ll hit your head too!

“There was a bug on your head, so I helped you kill it.” Sona said that with a flat expression.

“Really?”

“Yes.”

Rias sighed, smiled kindly and said: “Sona, do you think I’m stupid?”

“Yes.” Sona immediately answered faster.

“Sona! You fight with me!”

The red-haired girl was about to raise her fist, but Tsubaki who had been watching while drinking tea on the side suddenly coughed.

“Cough, cough!”

Rias turned her head, looking at Tsubaki in annoyance. “Tsubaki, you’re naive if you think I won’t hit Sona back because she dared to hit me.”

“Do you think you can stop me?”

Tsubaki smiled, shaking her head. “No, Rias. Didn’t you come here to ask about Eiji-kun? If you and Sona fight.”

“You probably won’t be able to hear what happened when Sona invited Eiji-kun to join her peerage.”

“Eiji-kun refused, not even tempted by beauty tricks, you know?”

“….”

Rias lowered her hands, sat on the sofa and crossed one leg.

Tsubaki poured tea for Rias and Sona also sat on the sofa with a cold expression.

“So Sona was rejected? Hehe that means I still have a chance. I want to hear the details. Tsubaki, please tell me.”

“Cih.”

Sona clicked her tongue.

Sure enough, the red-haired girl was stupid and Tsubaki managed to fool her with topics that interested her.

Tsubaki glanced at Sona and Sona who saw this nodded.

It’s okay to tell Rias.

After all, she was sure that the red-haired girl would also be rejected by Eiji in the end.

There was a slight smile on her face, Sona was looking forward to how her future husband would reject Rias.

Tsubaki who had gotten Sona’s approval to share the information finally sat down, looked at Rias and told her what had happened earlier.

Hearing all about Eiji’s failed recruitment process.

Rias widened her eyes, she looked at Sona with an expression of I don’t know what to say, but I’m a little jealous!

“Damn. Sona, you’re cunning! It’s fine if Eiji doesn’t manage to join your peerage, but you made him succeed in becoming your future husband!”

…

When school hours are over.

Eiji walked out of the school gate.

Under the afternoon sky with a few crows flying around.

I saw near the school gate a boy with brown hair and brown eyes with a stupid smile on his face.

His footsteps slowed down a little, he saw that the brown-haired boy looked very familiar and he was talking to a girl with long black hair in a school uniform.

The girl’s appearance could be considered beautiful and had a voluptuous figure.

The girl also looked very familiar.

Eiji widened his eyes.

[That… Isn’t that the protagonist of DxD? Hyudou Issei? It seems that after the previous plot failed. He went straight to another plot and ended up meeting one of the villain in this franchise.]

[A fallen angel who pretends to be human and asks Issei out on a date only to kill him and steal his Sacred Gear.]

[Heh, isn’t Issei also the Regressor protagonist? Why would he look stupid and naive like in the original work and accept a date invitation from Raynare? You should know that girl wants to use you and wants to kill you.]

[Still want to date her? What brain circuits… Oh, wait. Could it be that Issei wants…]

Eiji pretended to stand on the side of the road while waiting for a bus or taxi.

However, he was actually eavesdropping on Issei and Raynare’s conversation not far from him.

“Yuma-chan, Y-You … Do you really like me? Want me to be your boyfriend?” Issei with a stupid expression asked, he seemed to doubt that this was dream and not a reality.

Oh, Yuma? It’s true that this is the fake name Raynare used.

Raynare held Issei’s hand with a shy expression and nodded. “Un, I like you Issei-kun!”

“W-Will you be my boyfriend?”

[Wow…Raynare, you’re talented to be a bitch actor.]

[As expected of a villain who managed to kill the protagonist at an early stage. Although in the end Issei managed to survive because Rias revived him by becoming a devil.]

[But still… You’re a pretty cool bitch!]

[Not many villains manage to kill protagonist, at least you managed to do it once!]

I’m not sure, but Eiji’s inner voice sounds very excited, even praising someone.

Making the heroines surprised and speechless.

The one being praised was a villain character.

Issei scratched his head in shame, his stupid grin looking disgusting, but Raynare could still smile and hold his hand gently like a shy white lotus.

Eiji covered his mouth, he wanted to laugh.

Hahaha!

Crazy, this evil woman is so good at pretending!

Instead of being a Sacred Gear thief, why don’t you consider becoming a movie actress?

Make a lot of money and many humans would worship you as a goddess in their hearts.

Although your true personality is like a bitch, but you can cover it up with your excellent acting skills.

Applause.

“Of course! Yuma-chan, I actually want to be your boyfriend!”

Issei laughed and smiled at the same time.

Raynare who heard this easily made a blushing face.

Where did this woman learn this level of acting skills? Eiji wondered.

“Thank you! Issei-kun then…”

“Hm… What Yuma-chan?”

“C-Can we go on a date tomorrow? I want to spend more time with you. After school tomorrow, I want to try it out.”

“Sure, Yuma-chan. Let’s do it!”

Issei looked excited.

Raynare smiled like a flower.

The two exchanged contact.

“Then I’ll see you tomorrow, Issei-kun! I’ll contact you via WeChat later!”

Raynare turned around and waved her hand at Issei.

Issei also waved his hand and said, “Be careful on the road Yuma-chan!”

After Raynare left the school gate.

Eiji peeked at Issei’s profile who also started walking on the side of the road.

He happened to pass by him.

At that time, Eiji could clearly see that Issei’s expression no longer looked as stupid as before.

Now the corners of Issei’s mouth were raised like a grin.

His gaze was also a bit cold, but there was also happiness in it as if he had succeeded with what he had planned.

At this moment, Issei’s inner voice was also heard.

{Stupid bitch. You think you can deceive me again like in the previous life and traumatize me into becoming a herbivorous protagonist until I die a virgin?}

{Hehe… No, not again… Raynare… What did you do to me in my previous life}.

{In this life, you will pay for it!}

Hearing this, Eiji was surprised.

Sure enough this protagonist was actually pretending!

I knew the regressor protagonist wouldn’t be that stupid!

But what kind of revenge will Issei take on Raynare?

The corners of Eiji’s lips curved into a smile.

It was a smile eager to mess with someone.

Because Issei and Raynare’s date tomorrow was part of the plot.

Wouldn’t it make sense if he messed it up to get a reward?

?{That’s right host! Come on, you can’t let any plot related to the protagonist succeed!}

Miss System’s whisper was like a devil seducing a good person to do bad.

Eiji’s lips twitched, but whatever!

“Miss System, you don’t need to tell me.”

“Because I…”

“I’ll do it!”
