Aika's current state made Abaddon smile in amusement as he snapped his fingers and teleported the horny devil back home.
"What?" Abaddon asked as he noticed Xenovia, Koneko, and Asia looking at him, though the latter of them was more curious than anything, "You know what would've happened if she stayed," He said, "She would've started undressing and none of us want that in the middle of the park, in front of Gasper nonetheless."
"Kiba-senpai also," Koneko said before looking around confusedly.
"He probably left already when he noticed that I'd come here." Abaddon chuckled. Kiba's experiences with him had been worse and worse. The poor guy mostly ended up knocked out whenever he was around Abaddon and decided that it would be better to not be around him unless absolutely necessary.
"You're mean to Yuuto-san," Xenovia said with an observant expression, "I should mirror those feelings."
Abaddon raised a brow, "If you want to fight him, you don't need to use me as an excuse," He said, "Just threaten him by saying that you'll shove your sword up his ass, he should come right by for an honorable duel."
"Senpai," Koneko looked at him with a blank expression, "You're teaching bad things to Xenovia-senpai."
"Am I now?" Abaddon smiled, "Maybe, but wouldn't it be fun to see sweet innocent church nuns like Xenovia and Asia corrupted…" Abaddon trailed off with a laugh as he looked at Koneko's annoyed expression.
"Someone help…" Gasper said with a whiny voice as he tried to take the mask off again, but was unsuccessful.
"Might as well complete Aika's work." Abaddon snapped his fingers and used his demonic energy to pull the hood down completely, essentially putting Gasper in a gimp mask that had a section for the eyes that could be closed and opened with a strap at the side.
As the mask tightened around his neck and affixed itself to his face, Gasped continued whining, "I still can't see!" He seemed just short of flailing his arms around helplessly.
"Xenovia would you be a dear and help him?" Abaddon said.
"It's best if I don't," She said, "He breaks down in tears at the sight of my face."
"That's because you keep running after Gya-kun with your sword, threatening to stab him," Koneko added.
Abaddon just smiled amusedly, "Asia, honey. How about you help him out?" He asked.
"Okay," She nodded and quickly approached him. She seemed to be uncomfortable at the sight of his struggling and calmed him down with a soft voice while fiddling with the strap that would free his vision.
"Hmm…" Abaddon thought of something as he looked at Asia talking gently in Gasper's ear as she pulled back the strap and buckled it to the side of the road, finally freeing the half-vampire's vision.
"Ahh!" Abaddon heard a scream and found a foreign influence washing over him. He looked around and saw that time had been stopped for everyone but him.
"Why do you put yourself through this, Gasper?" Abaddon asked him before snapping his fingers, breaking the encroaching domain and hurting Gasper in the process as the femboy crouched on the ground while holding his head in his hands, "Stop using your sacred gear on me." Abaddon said while walking toward Gasper and Asia.
"Can you heal him, Asia?" He asked as he saw the girl having knelt beside Gasper as a green glow passed over to Gasper from her hands.
"Mm-mm," She shook her head, "His spirit has been hurt, he needs to rest for at least a week to fix it."
"I'll help you out," Abaddon said before putting his hand on Asia's shoulder and passing a wave of purified and concentrated Aether to her that would solely work to boost the capabilities of her Twilight Healing gear, "Try again."
Asia felt the wave of energy that enhanced her Twilight Healing by multiple magnitudes, almost as if she'd just entered the so-called balance breaker form.
It didn't take long for her to heal Gasper back to his peak state, as the boy thanked Asia before looking up at Abaddon fearfully.
"Just…stop using your sacred gear on me," Abaddon said, "You can't freeze me in time and it's a very uncomfortable sensation. So, just don't?"
"I'll–I'll try," He nodded vigorously, "Thank you for healing me, Abaddon-san."
"Thank Asia, I don't really care." Abaddon said, continuing before Gasper spoke further, "Anyway, I'm going home, I have a very desperate pawn who seems to not have been sated even after three days."
Abaddon snapped his fingers and teleported Kiba here, "Huh?" The blonde looked confused, "Abaddon-san." He instantly got defensive, stepping back.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to knock you out," Abaddon chuckled, "Just take Gasper back to Kuoh. We're going back home."
"O-oh, okay," Kiba nodded, "I'll take care of him." He turned to look at Gasper and got a weird expression on his face when he saw the replacement for the previous paper bag.
Abaddon didn't care about satisfying Kiba's curiosity, "Come here," He called the girls and created a teleportation circle under himself, "Xenovia, Koneko, and Asia."
The three girls quickly came close to him and stood within the circle before they all disappeared, leaving Kiba alone with Gasper.
"Is the scary devil gone?" Gasper asked. Somehow, he'd freed the belt that Asia had previously detached and it was now covering his eyes again.
"Yeah, he's gone, Gasper," Kiba sighed while patting the vampire's head, "Come on. I'll take you back to Kuoh."
…
Back at the house, Abaddon and the girls appeared in the living room.
"You girls hungry?" He asked as he walked to the dining area.
"Mhm." "Yes, my lord," Koneko and Xenovia agreed and followed Abaddon.
"I'll cook … " Asia said while scuttling after them.
"No need," Abaddon said, "I ordered takeout. And some special appetizers from the underworld."
"I don't have to cook?" Asia asked with a hint of disappointment in her voice.
"You don't, but you can cook breakfast for us tomorrow," Abaddon offered, "Everyone will be here to try your cooking in the morning."
"Okay," Asia seemed happy at Abaddon'soffer and took a seat at the table.
"Aika-san isn't coming?" Xenovia asked while taking the seat beside Abaddon's that Rias usually took.
"She's probably busy masturbating on my bed," Abaddon said nonchalantly, "Forget about her, come here, Koneko."
Koneko, who was taking a seat on the other side of Xenovia found herself sitting on Abaddon's lap with a surprised expression on her face.
"Let's eat," Abaddon snapped his fingers and multiple items appeared on the table, some were familiar to the girls, but some were completely unfamiliar and seemed eerie and very unappetizing to them, "I have missed drinking the souls of the dammed," Abaddon said with an excited expression on his face and grabbed a bottle that had an ominous vibe to it before uncapping it.
The entire room was instantly filled with screeches and wails that originated from the bottle. The girls were all spooked, but Abaddon only had an excited expression on his face as he directly sipped the liquid that was in the bottle, instantly dousing the sounds that had filled the room.
"What is that unholy creation?" Xenovia said with a spooked tone as Abaddon pulled the half-empty bottle away from his lips before screwing the cap back on.
"It's one of my favorite childhood drinks," Abaddon said, "It's literally what it says, the souls of the dammed."
"Can I sit on my own seat, please?" Koneko asked, unwilling to be subjected to a firsthand experience of those wails sounding right beside her ear, "I hate those wails."
"What are you talking about?" Abaddon asked cluelessly, "The wails are half of the experience. Why don't you try it?" He offered.
"Please no …" Koneko said, "I would rather just eat in my own room."
"Oh," Abaddon recalled their situation, "I thought you'd be interested. Xenovia and Asia I understand, they're new. But Koneko, you really need to up your devil game. These are things that children eat and drink to nourish their souls. I know Rias gave you a different upbringing than usual, but you have to embrace your devil heritage too."
"I-I'll think about it," Koneko said before trying to get off of Abaddon's lap, only to be yanked back in place as he kept her there.
"You're still staying here," He said, "I won't eat the Underworld stuff right now since it's all going to spook all of you."
"I wouldn't mind trying some, my lord," Xenovia seemed to have summed up the courage to ask Abaddon for a taste.
"That's my knight," Abaddon praised her with a proud expression on his face, "But not right now," He said, "I'll set up a different time for everyone to get used to these things."
"Understood," She took his words as gospel.
