When we make it back to the mansion I escort the girls off to the medical area to be given a proper check up. The reports were given to sirzech that the elder sister had indeed been experimented on and needed some time to recover.
All this information was released and the naberius family was punished harshly. I had decided to sit down and have a chat with the still wary kuroka.
"Hello there we didn't have time to properly introduce ourselves earlier. I'd also like for you to keep what you saw a bit of a secret. Don't need lots of people asking questions." I said with a smile.
"Okay. But what is going to happen to us now? I'm sure you've figured out I killed my master. usually they would label me as a rogue devil and I'd have to be hunted down." She asks with worry.
After a quick chat with the system. "Can I put my hand on your back for a moment?" I ask the confused girl who only nods.
I put my hand on her back and with the systems help I drag out her evil piece showing it to her before tossing it into the kingdom for hephaestus to take apart.
"See now the only ones who know you were a peerage member are you and me." I clap my hands together with a happy face.
"You and your sister are welcome to stay here as long as you like. I'm sure you don't want to be running around outside though who knows if that group had any backers. But here your completely safe. Plus you can watch over your little sister isn't that nice?"
"And what do you get out of all this?" she asks still on guard but slightly more relieved.
"Well I could always use a queen piece, as I currently am I have zero peerage members. However you don't have too if you don't want too. I'm sure your feeling pretty upset about the last incident. But you can always turn me down and you would still get to happily live here with your sister." I say reaching over and rubbing the cat girls ears. I could no longer resist the urge to touch them they were just sitting there twitching and mocking me.
"So soft." it's like instant relaxation. I hear a strange rumbling noise after a few minutes and notice kuroka has her eyes closed and seems to be purring. So great.
Sadly do to my shock at the purring girl she snaps out of it and blushes covering up her face. "Your not supposed to grab them like that they are sensitive!" She shouts at me embarrassed.
"I couldn't resist as I am a man with little willpower against fluffy things." I give my best serious face. "I warn you this will most likely happen again if you stay here as I love kitty ears."
She mumbles something about it being fine as long as it's me while covering her head with a blanket.
"Well I'll let you get your rest now I'm sure your tired. You can think about my offer later." I give her head a pat and rub her ears a little more fighting off the addiction to just keep rubbing and head out to go back to the library.
However I'm cut off by a red haired girl and a black haired girl. "Little brother where did you dissappear too? i was so worried you just vanished uwuwuwu!" came a crying redheaded rocket.
I spend the next 20 minutes explaining to two clingy overly worried 11 year old girls about my grand adventure. Being kidnapped and fighting off bad guys rescuing the little girls in distress and totally not mentioning anything embarrassing at all. By the end of the story I have two sparkly eyed little girls looking at me like I'm the prince in a fairytale story.
"So this is why we always have to keep up our training who knows what might happen in the future." I also need to read more about barriers.
The two little girls nodded seriously. They had been slacking lately on their training so this might motivate them more.
I made my way back to the library to start up my copying of some more books. Mostly related to barrier and illusion magic. Got to master everything if you don't want to get caught off gaurd.
I also need to work a bit more on my peerage can't have myself being caught off gaurd. I start thinking about who I could use for now and come up with a few people I can think of.
I'll get them later on I'm sure they would be happy to agree. Plus their abilities wouldn't be too effected as they don't really use magic or anything like that.
oh well stuff to think about later.
a few days pass by and I'm finally cornered by a black haired kitty who has started to act seductively. "I agree to be your queen. You seem strong even though your young and there seems to be something different about you that makes me curious."
I lean forward and whisper in her ear. "You do remember what they said about the cat and curiosity right?" I lightly bite her ear.
She lets out a light nyaa as I watch her tails start flicking back and forth and her face go red.
She tries to jump me but I quickly dodge her rubbing her tails as I do.
"Sorry if you want to make kitties with me you'll have to get much stronger." I smirk gently rubbing down her tails. She let's out an involuntary shiver and starts to pant.
I just toss a queen piece to the poor flustered girl and head back towards the kitchen to try to snag some bacon.
A few seconds later I feel a tug on my soul and hear a bit more cat like moans from the hallway I just left. My evil pieces are a bit more powerful than regular ones.
