It has been a few days since Kisuke and Yoruichi went on vacation and Sona busied herself with schoolwork every day without realizing that they were leaving the country.
"... And that's gonna be everything for today." Tsubaki finished reporting to Sona who was still typing some documents.
"...Thank ye... You can go." Sona answered briefly.
Ever since Sona and her sister, Serafall, came back from Kisuke's place, she's always been like this. Although Sona tends to work hard, the case is much worse to the point that Tsubaki and the members of the OSIS can easily tell that Sona is very tired which is not the case.
Tsubaki especially knew that she was forcing herself too hard because she saw the ring around Sona's eyes that she was trying to hide with makeup on. This shows that he has not slept for the past few days.
Tsubaki even sneaks in her house to see what she has done, but to her surprise, it's more work and she'll do it until morning. He would only stop if he was going to school.
Tsubaki knows that there can't be much work and examines what Sona is working on and sees that she's already planned everything for the school she wants to set up in the Underworld rather than letting the experts doing for him. He had not even gotten permission from the elder to build it so it could be said that he was working on something that proved to be useless in the future.
Tsubaki wanted to ask what happened back then, but she could not find the right time or the courage to directly confront him about it. After all, he tried very hard to hide it. Asking Serafall did not appear in his mind because of his position.
But today was different because he received information from the Sitri Family monitoring the general trends of the Underworld. Because Kisuke is one of the interesting people and the one who defeated Sona in chess along with his real acceptance of her loss by stating that he might become her fiance in the future, he was also under the supervision of the Sitri Family, "Kaichou , a news came from the Sitri Family that might be of interest to you." Tsubaki wishes she could get a reaction from Sona with this information and try to guess what really happened.
Sona looked at Tsubaki with a flat face and replied, "What's wrong?"
"Kisuke's aura was seen in Greece a few days ago." Tsubaki stared intently at Sona and replied.
Sona was shaken at her words and hurriedly looked back at her work. This was the first time since a few days ago that Sona reacted violently. Tsubaki could even see that her hands were trembling slightly, "I-is that right?" Sona continued typing but she kept making mistakes with what she was doing and kept pressing the backspace button.
"Yes..." Tsubaki waited for a while but Sona did not ask any follow-up questions which made her very confused. All along, he would always be interested in Kisuke's actions for reasons such as wanting to invite him to their noble title.
After a few seconds, Sona spoke up as the silence grew increasingly awkward, "By the way, how are the preparations for the Athletic Meet?"
'He changed the topic!? And in a bad way!' Although inwardly shocked, Tsubaki replied straightforwardly, "Despite some delays, everything is fine and we will be done before meeting." Tsubaki had already reported this before but she did not show it, 'Kisuke-san... What the hell's going on?'
"Good.I'll go now. I want a break." Sona stood up and headed straight for the door.
Before he could get out, Tsubaki called out from behind, "Kaichou..."
Sona turned around, "What's the matter?"
"..." - ".Sona stared blankly at him for a moment before smiling gently, "Yes. Sorry to worry about you and the others." Sona then continued on her journey, The sleeping pills I ordered from the Underworld will arrive today after all... I should be able to sleep tonight.'
Tsubaki stared at the door even after leaving. He then pulled out his phone to call Kisuke's number. He gets it from Aika who wants to ask about Sona's state. Even though she seemed to know something about what was happening, she did not say anything to him.
He failed to call Kisuke for not ringing. He gave up after several tries and gripped his nearly broken phone, 'What should I do?...' Tsubaki sighed and left after locking the room.

Rias, against the wishes of her family, moves into Issei's house. They had no choice but to allow it due to his stubbornness, but Sirzhecs strongly supported this move thinking that Rias would be pleased with the Red Dragon Emperor with the determination he showed in the Rating Game. He hoped Issei would reach far with his Sacred Gear even though he was a normal human in the past.
" -Well, that's about the summary. It seems that I will also be staying at the Hyoudou House from now on." Rias explained to Issei's parents with a smile, "I hope my ignorance isn't too intrusive, Father, Mother."
It was decided that the Rating Game they had was invalid and they would do a rematch. But their opponent, Riser Phenex, had yet to come out of his room after he nearly lost his life. They even say that she now has a phobia of cats, specifically white cats and will run away if she sees them, even if it is a kitten, like a chicken meeting its worst predator.
Rias convinces Issei and Asia to let her move by saying that she wants to strengthen her bond with her slave.
"Oh~. I couldn't be happier! With Asia-chan and Rias-san, now I have two daughters." Miki, Issei's mother, clapped her hands happily and welcomed Rias' arrival.
Goro, Issei's father, took off his glasses and wiped his tears, "You said it, baby! It is the dream of every man to be surrounded by girls! Issei, you might just achieve my childhood fantasies!"
Issei was currently putting on a difficult face and thinking, 'Yup... No doubt about it. I'm this guy's kid. We even have the same dream...'
Issei recalled the night when she woke up after dreaming of talking to a dragon that claimed to be inside her left hand. He also recalled the time when they received the news that they were going to have a rematch against Riser. Back then, he remembered what Kisuke would always tell him whenever he was doubtful about what he wanted to do in his childhood, 'Just do it!'
So she stood up, with everyone watching her, stating that she would do everything to protect Rias even if she had to sacrifice her body to try. Issei even claimed that if Rias held an Engagement Party or Wedding herself that she did not like, she would destroy it and take it away.
Those words prompted Rias to hug him tightly as she cried softly. Since then, they were very close and now Rias decided to stay with him regardless of what her family said.
Although it didn't take long for Issei to return to her perverted self as she enjoyed Rias' breasts which caused Asia to complain about it and Koneko almost wanted to kick her face.
