Patty how are you not overweight by now? Your terrible combat wise and I hardly ever see you doing anything other than shopping or cleaning...than again I don't really hang out with you that often. That goes for all the women in his life...I get along with Nero just fine. I haven't really felt found of women. I can't trust them even if I happen to be one I've just gotten hurt more often from different people of the same sex than vice virsa. I don't hate the girls in his life I hate the way most of them dress... other than that I have nothing against them. I won't change your style until I feel like I've improved you strength wise or literally anything in combat sense. You asked for this your not getting out of it until I feel I've done my job. Or unless something of greater importance comes into my path that I have to give my absolute best to that's more important than this. She only consumed two slices of pizza while the rest somehow managed to eat six whole pizzas. She decided to just drink dr. Pepper while they did that. She sat on Dante's lap by the third Pizza and stayed on his lap til they left. Once they left lily ended up being dragged by Patty in the direction of the mall while the guys spilt with them to go kill demons.
"Where are you taking me?"
"To the mall duh"
"....no I haven't fulfilled my end of the bargain I can't change your doll like look until I've done something to make you less likely to die."
She looked at me like she'd seen a ghost.
"I well I thought we were done"
I shake my head at her. I crossed my arms underneath my chest causing my breasts to stick out more than they already had been. She made a look at me maybe jealousy? I can't tell I can only guess. Either way I clicked my tongue and grabbed her by the hand.
"Again with this...what are you anyway?"
I'm confused by this statement.
"I'm me"
"...your acting weird your usually a love sick school girl with Dante, or the geek trope. This isn't like you your acting like a general or a soldier since I asked for training I just think it's weird."
I blinked and began walking at a slower pace still holding onto her hand. It's true that's how I normally act around Nero and Dante. It took me a minute to realize why I'd suddenly gone headstrong with her. Normally once I go into combat mode even for jobs I can't turn it off until I'm done. I doubt it's the madness's fault. To put it bluntly I can't stand being weak. I don't like being hurt by those who are strong. I've been through enough of that for a decent amount of lifetime's. this world is full of scum. But there is still goodness in it no matter how very few of that goodness happens to be. For the sake of those I love...an image flashed in her mind a picture of a woman almost identical to her but wearing armor and a sword in its sheath. This ironically was her ideal. This was why she'd taken on the appearance she had currently.
"...what's your ideal?"
She stares at me as if I had a third head.
"Ideal what..."
I know it's stupid that's why I don't have the courage to say what I meant. I looked away I didn't want her to see these stupid tears. Whenever I get like this I've always teared up because of my past I have a problem trying to speak my mind. I can only hope she doesn't see my reaction.
"I wanna be...a model"
Odd dream but I guess I can work with it...guess that means no weapons she'd be better off with poisons and wits she has to protect her looks. Even though whatever she has is being ruined by her doll like outfits.
"...no training the body train this"
I tapped my head.
"I'm not going to lie to you lily I had a bit of education before my parents died and I ended up here after Dante saved me from my"new family" but I doubt that anything I learned in elementary school would help me kill demons..."
She has a point. And there's no form of literally anything that could help me teach this girl smarts or about poisoning her foes. Guess the internet is my only option for now...crap I might get arrested if I just google everything. Oh wait I still have half of hell backing me up in this realm. There's bound to be someone willing to help me with Patty. I smirked but then went back to a poker face.
"...did we have a library I didn't know about?"
I shook my head.
"...come by the day after tomorrow I'll have something for you then"
The two went their separate ways and went home.
~little did lily know what was in store for her tomorrow~
