Harem Daily Life in High School DxD

last night...

Yuno?

"Rias-senpai? Where's Yuno? Yesterday wasn't a dream, was it?"

Kuroba grabbed Rias's shoulder, looking somewhat nervous.

Rias's eyes flickered slightly.

"If the Yuno you're talking about is that angel, then she must have returned to the realm of the gods..."

Upon hearing this, Kuroba dejectedly released Rias. (255595300)

"I think that angel's divine power is extraordinary, and she herself said that she is only an avatar, her true body is still in the divine realm. I think I'll have a chance to meet her in the future..."

Seeing that Kuroba looked somewhat dejected, Rias couldn't help but offer a word of comfort.

To be honest, I'm just too weak... I need power... I need to become stronger, strong enough to protect the people I want to protect...

Kuroba's eyes rekindled with fighting spirit; he had finally found the goal he needed to strive for.

But before he could muster any fighting spirit for more than two seconds, Rias grabbed his ear and twisted it.

"Hey, Kuroba, how dare you? If I hadn't resisted so fiercely last night, you probably would have forced yourself on me, right?"

Huh? Forced sleep? What have I forgotten?!

"Rias-senpai... I, I don't know! Tell me what happened!"

Rias gave Kuroba a charming glare and lightly tapped his forehead.

"You need to learn to control your power. I'm willing to give it to you, but only after you obtain a title..."

Kuroba felt his whole body brimming with power!

The title! Here I come!

Chapter Seventeen: Demonic State

From that day on, Kuroba worked much harder, and through his efforts, he actually managed to complete quite a few contracts quite well.

"Oh~ Kuroba is growing very fast, and the employers' feedback is quite good."

Rias looked at Kuroba's work report and couldn't help but praise it.

Kuroba scratched his head sheepishly.

"Still a long way to go."

Rias put down the report in her hand and looked at Yuuki, who had just come in from outside.

"Perfect timing, Yuuki is here."

"Huh? Is there something you need, President?"

Rias nodded slightly.

"From today onwards, you and Kuroba will work together around the clock."

"All day??"

Before Yuuki could say anything, Kuroba let out a strange cry.

"Yes, all day. Akeno and I have some things to take care of. I'm worried about your current condition. With Yuuki here, I feel much more at ease."

"What? Kuroba, are you looking down on me?"

Yuuki was holding Kuroba's arm, and she looked somewhat injured.

"No, no, no, it's just that it will be troublesome for you."

Kuroba quickly denied it.

"Well, that's settled then!"

Yuuki ignored Kuroba's words and agreed to Rias's request.

Please follow me, Kuroba!

Yuuki playfully winked at Kuroba.

Then, from that day on, Rias-senpai and Akeno-senpai disappeared, not even appearing at school.

There was one more person by Kuroba's side.

"Hello everyone, I'm Yuuki Kiba, Kuroba's girlfriend. Nice to meet you all~"

These are Yuuki's exact words to Matsuda and Motohama.

Ah... even though it wasn't true, seeing their jealous expressions made Kuroba secretly feel smug.

on the way home.

"Hey, Kuroba, are you secretly thrilled? I can actually fulfill the duties of a girlfriend, you know? Kisses, hugs, cuddles, and all that stuff, you know?"

So many balls, so many sacks!

What did she say last?

Seeing the shocked look in Kuroba's eyes, Yuuki licked her lips seductively and lightly tapped Kuroba's chest with her finger.

"You heard me right, I can let you do whatever you want~ I can try it with you when we get home."

Okay, time to go home.

Come back home?

Kuroba stopped abruptly, as if braking.

"Whose home are you going back to?"

"Of course it's your house!"

Yuuki looked at Kuroba as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Ha, you're not going to stay at my place too, are you?"

"What else can I do? The club president said we'd be in teams all day, you know? Do you expect me to sleep on the roof?"

Kuroba immediately reached out and stopped Yuuki from speaking.

"Wait, Yuuki-san, could you please wipe your drool and stop looking like a lovesick girl before you say that?"

"Ah... but I don't know why, there's a scent about you that's really attractive to me, Kuroba, I just can't resist it."

"smell?"

Kuroba reached out and smelled himself.

Where is that smell coming from? I can't smell it.

Just as Yuuki was about to tease Kuroba, her expression changed drastically. A flash of silver light appeared in her hand, and she gripped a sword tightly.

"Such intense killing intent..."

After Yuuki finished speaking, Kuroba also felt a chilling cold, like a cold wind blowing at minus forty or fifty degrees Celsius, which made him tremble.

In their perception, a strange barrier surrounded an area of ​​several miles. Then, several figures appeared in front of them, and Yuuki's gaze became even more serious as she looked at the pure white wings behind them.

"Damn it...it's an angel..."

The figures looked down at Yuuki and Kuroba from their elevated positions, then fixed their gazes on Kuroba.

"That must be the person the adults were talking about..."

As long as we kill him, our lord can lead us towards a bright future without any distractions!

Without uttering a single word, several figures, radiating an icy killing intent, charged towards the two, wielding spears formed from light.

"Kuroba, you hide first! The president said you should try not to use your strength. I'll deal with them. You find a chance to escape!"

Yuhime coldly watched the attackers, gave them an order, and then dashed out like lightning.

So fast! Even with Kuroba's eyesight, he could barely make out Yuuki's movement.

Like lightning, Yuuki engaged the three angels in battle. Kuroba could only see sparks flying from the clashing spears of light, but he couldn't see Yuuki at all.

"Is speed the only defining characteristic of a knight...?"

Kuroba knew that Yuuki's ability was with swords; she could generate countless kinds of swords for her own use. However, such ghostly speed was definitely not caused by her ability. So there was only one explanation: the characteristics of the chess pieces.

Rias had once briefly explained to Kuroba that each piece had its own characteristics, but Rias didn't continue because Kuroba hadn't reached that level yet.

Now, Kuroba himself has witnessed it firsthand.

Although Yuuki possesses terrifying speed, the three angels' target was not Yuuki, but Kuroba.

In order to stop the inevitable advance of the angels, Yuuki had to sacrifice her speed and reveal her true form.

The downside of doing this is that it inevitably leaves several marks from the light gun.

"Yuki!"

Kuroba watched as black smoke billowed from Yuuki's wounds, as if they were being corroded. Yuuki herself trembled slightly due to the wounds, clearly enduring immense pain.

Am I destined to always be protected like this? Protected by women?

Kuroba's fists clenched involuntarily.

Why did I become stronger? It was to protect the people I wanted to protect, and then get a title and sleep with Rias-senpai, right?

But what am I doing right now?

Watching his comrades fight, and fight to protect themselves.

Then should I just cower on the sidelines like a mouse and watch the battle unfold?

Is this what I want?

No way? This shouldn't be happening, right?

Kuroba clenched his fist tighter and tighter, and the blood in his body began to boil with the ever-expanding thoughts within him.

The black and white magic power within his body surged as if it had been boiled, spreading throughout Hei Yu's entire body.

His originally dark hair began to turn snow-white, and his original school uniform was slowly covered with a layer of dark, armor-like magic.
