Kisuke Uruhara On DXD

Chapter 202

After some more persuasion from Sakura and the fact that they went bankrupt after being cheated, they acknowledged and accepted her offer. Sakura talked to Akeno again for a while before hanging up the phone to take care of her business.

"Please get through here." Akeno invited them in and guided them towards the room they were going to use, "You can use this room. You will probably never eat the food I will make so I ordered something from the family restaurant and will arrive in a few minutes. In the meantime, you can arrange your belongings here and wash in the bathroom. The bathroom is the second door from the end of the hall."

When they reached the room, Xenovia, who had been silent until now spoke, "Are you really okay with this?"

"Ara~. I wonder what you're talking about?"

"We could hurt you, you know? I was surprised that you would trust our words to not hurt any of them in the Gremory and Sitri Household. We did promise that, but there's still a limit."

"Is that so?" Akeno then gave them a wide smile, "Why don't you try to attack me then and see if you can really hurt me."

Xenovia stared at him for a while before opening the large sword pack she was carrying and just as Akeno thought, it was a Holy Sword and a powerful sword, "I think it's a challenge?"

Akeno simply continued to smile, unaffected by Xenovia taking the horses.

Seeing that she looked confident, Xenovia turned on her Holy Power and moved it to her Holy Sword thus making it glow in golden color.

But just as he did, a green magic circle suddenly appeared in front of him and an arrow with a suction cup head. Xenovia had expected something like this to happen after being the first victim, 'Is this why she is confident? How naive...'

With a swing of his sword, he slashed the toy arrow inside, but to his surprise, the arrowhead was hollow and contained a green liquid. Xenovia could not dodge in time and ended up bathing in it.

She thought it was sour and braced herself on the burning feeling she was about to feel, but even after a second, the feeling never came and instead, she Irina called out to her, "X-Xenovia!"

Irina did not see her face but her body so Xenovia also looked down. Most of her clothes had already been thawed by the liquid and in a few seconds, she would be wearing her birthday suit.

"Do you think something like this would bother me? Especially when we're the only ones here?" After saying that, Xenovia continued her attack, but she miscalculated something.

Upon seeing that the liquid had only melted his clothes, he thought that it would be of no use anymore, but when he took a step forward, he slipped and fell forward. He underestimated how slippery the liquid was.

Even though he fell for the trap, with his reaction, slipping would not be a big problem for him ... If not for a trap suddenly appearing in front of him where. With nowhere to reach, he falls into a dark trap. Even Irina couldn't react to how fast something was moving. No matter what Xenovia did to react to the situation, she was still not capable enough to escape from the entrapment series in one magic activation.

"Xenovia!?" Irina ran through the hallway and opened the door where Akeno pointed earlier as the bathroom and saw Xenovia in the bathtub shaking as she dipped into the tub filled with icy water. Irina also noticed a note posted on her forehead that said, "Cool your head, ya~?" Along with the familiar face stamp on it.

Irina's mouth twitched, "What the hell is this? Why are traps so sophisticated and non-lethal inside the house?" He was muttering a question.

Akeno came from behind and answered her question, "That's the bastard's hobby... He uses his intelligence in everything that is only useful to annoy others." He then walked towards the side of the bathtub and heated the water with his magic, "I can't let my guest catch a cold, so please be careful~."

"You already know about the trap..." Xenovia gritted her teeth in frustration and was not the slightest bit grateful for her attitude. After all, he was the one who led her into a trap by provoking her. Although he knew there would be a trap, he did not expect that he would have to react every turn and still fail in the end.

"No~. I have absolutely no idea about that trap~." Akeno said with a light laugh. He can now understand Sona's point of view that wants others to fall victim to Kisuke's trap after experiencing it many times. Xenovia's frustrated expression was all she needed, 'Unfortunately, I can't invite others to this house without Sakura-san's permission and that bastard.'

"Huh? Then how to..." Irina and Xenovia looked at him in confusion.

Akeno's smile suddenly froze and became a forced smile. He looked into the distance with empty eyes and said, "Since I've fallen into all kinds of traps in this house, I've trusted him to do the same for both of you ... You can't imagine how many times I've tried.to outsmart that trap." He answered honestly.

"...Irina... Staying here is too dangerous if there are traps everywhere... Let's go to the abandoned church you mentioned."

Irina almost agreed when Akeno cut her off, "If it's about that, then you don't have to worry. As long as you stay here normally, you won't activate any traps."

They wanted to ask how he claimed that he fell into countless traps if that was the case but stopped himself when they saw a strange glint in his eyes along with his smile that was not.

'Kisuke's antics got worse, huh? That's just fine. As long as he doesn't become a demon... Everything is fine...' Irina thought, "Xenovia, I think it's okay to stay here."

"...I-I think you're right."

"Then I have to leave you alone now because I still have to clean some rooms. After washing yourself and taking care of your luggage, you can wait for the food in the living room." Akeno did not wait for them to answer and left the bathroom. After all, he did not plan to change what he had originally planned. Although he could release a bit of his stress after seeing Xenovia's 'fall', it wasn't enough. Moreover, it became a routine for him to do so to the extent that he would not feel right if he missed it.

After Akeno left, Irina and Xenovia looked at each other, "You're childhood friends..." Xenovia wants to comment on Irina's supposed childhood friend but doesn't know how to describe her.

"He's always been an eccentric man ... But it seems like it's gotten worse these past few years." Irina replied, "I'm going to go find a change of clothes. I'll join you in the bathroom."
