Chapter 88 - Granted

"Hopefully It isn't just my own assumptions," Adam was about to go down this lane when suddenly the alarm in his shop started to go off.

"A client now?" Adam muttered he stopped for a second as he decided on something.

"I should check who it is just in case," Adam was using this function for the first time and the reason for that was….

'I don't know what that damned Goddess might have pulled,' Adam thought as he has chills just thinking about the ways that woman could mess up things for him without any problems.

But as soon as he saw who it was through the window that appeared before him his eyes widened.

"Akeno? How?" Adam asked the question in a shocked tone as the door opened and then she walked into the shop with her signature seductive smile.

But there was something different about her and that was…

"I've missed you Adam~," Akeno spoke as a blush covered her cheeks leaving Adam blinking.

'What happened?' That was all he could think of as he faced the current Akeno.

***

Kuoh, Japan.

Only a few days have passed since Adam left and school was on holiday today, usually, this wouldn't mean much since Akeno would still be in school but not today.

The reason for that is that she had something on her mind.

'Hmm, what to do?' Akeno thought as she was lying down on the floor of the shrine she lived in.

There was only one thought on her mind at this moment.

"I want to see him again," Akeno muttered as a blush came over her face. But it wasn't one that was out of embarrassment…

'How can I meet him again?' Rias had told her everything and also said to her that they'd look for ways in which they can get her to Adam directly or they'll use the card to try and enter the shop but…

'That will not work for me,' Akeno had already tried to use the card but it didn't work, it seemed like only Rias could activate it and it wasn't like she minded her going and meeting him first but…

'Oh no, those thoughts are coming again,' Akeno's breath became a little haggard but soon she calmed herself down and started to think rationally again.

'Rias was really lucky to be able to meet him the way she did, hmm, didn't she say that she was really desperate at the time? …..'

"Yes! That can Work!!" Akeno sat up quickly with a smile as she remembered Rias's rendition of how she came across the door.

At the time Rias was desperate about getting out of her engagement. And that was when the door appeared. So if she follows that…

"I will be able to summon it as well," Akeno muttered with a smile and got to work.

'I want to bring back my mother back to life,' Akeno wished for what she wanted, truthfully speaking it was her only regret and the only thing she wanted to fix about herself now.

If it was from before….

'I would have another wish but that is irrelevant now, please let me have my mother again, I would do anything for it.' Akeno smiled as 'that' part of hers didn't make her angry anymore, and it was all thanks to Adam.

And because of that…

'I want to meet you again, won't you let me in your embrace and call me beautiful once more?' Akeno thought as her mind went crazy as she was reliving the night from yesterday in her head, it was so vivid in her mind that even her body started to react.

'I want you to do those things to me once again, Adam~,' At this point, Akeno's eyes were getting clouded with lust as if she had forgotten all about her previous thoughts. Right now she only wanted one thing.

"I want you to mess me up one more time~," Akeno bit her lip as she rubbed her thighs but…

[Granted~.] Akeno's eyes snapped open as the playful yet seductive voice tickled her ears but….

"It's the door Rias talked about, even the note is the same word for word," Akeno's entire being was now focused on the door that appeared in the middle of her room right now.

'Time really does stop when it happens as she mentioned, it really makes me curious abuot how that works,' Akeno looked at the clock and stop that it had stopped just like Rias had told her about.

But she didn't bother checking anything more and went near the door, grabbing onto the handle with a smile before she turned it.

And as soon as the door opened she saw Adam looking at her blinking, his confusion apparent on his face but…

"I've missed you Adam~," Akeno felt her core heat up just by seeing him once again, her body was reacting far more honestly than her mouth at the moment.

And then…

"So, you want to revive your mother?" Adam asked as Akeno nodded.

"Yes, that is my wish," Akeno said while taking a sip of the tea thoroughly enjoying the subtle and sweet scent along with the mellow taste.

"Your tea-making skills are really out of the world," Akeno smiled as she said that but she couldn't help but admire the taste.

"Thanks for that, but Akeno do you know?" Adam of course had to ask the question even if the answer seemed obvious.

"Yes I know of the price I must pay and I don't mind it," Akeno said lightly as it wasn't that big of a deal for her to do that, she had already had sex with Adam before and she had more things she planned to do with him. So something like this would not matter to her.

'My head really hurts right now,' Adam sighed since this was so much different than what happened with Tsunade, but there was no point in thinking about that.

"….So, about your mother, how should I bring her back?" Adam asked the main question and Akeno understood what he was asking her.

"I …don't want anyone to know that my mother has come back to life," Akeno for once looked totally serious as her previous flirtatious look went out of the window.

"Is it because of your family?" Akeno told Adam everything that happened during her mother's death, so he understood her point to an extent but…

"You don't even want your father to know about it?" Adam asked but…

"…" Akeno didn't say anything and just continued to look down, it was like she didn't wish to speak about it at all.

'I shouldn't have asked that,' Adam wouldn't have asked if it was someone else, but the fact was that the one making the wish was Akeno, which is what led him to ask that question, he asked it so that she could have her family back together again since she had the chance.

But it seemed like now wasn't the correct time to talk about it.

"…I see, I will follow what you want then," Adam said and Akeno nodded.

'I know he only meant well for me but…' Akeno just didn't think she had the mercy in her heart to forgive her father.

"So, here is the contract," Akeno looked up and saw Adam give her the contract, he didn't need to visit the administrator of her world because...

'That one doesn't really care for what happens,' Adam did talk to the administrator before and the person in question had seemingly given up on keeping the deviations in line because there were too many of them, so he was now focused on supporting the verse so that it doesn't get overloaded and collapse because of the various new timelines were created in their verse.

This is why the administrator told Adam to do as he likes and just be sensible enough to not cause any irreversible damage to the universe since that would be a pain.

'Well that one is indeed strong so it makes sense that he is so carefree,' Adam thought as Akeno took the contract, but…

She just signed it on the spot without even looking at it much to Adam's shock as the contract turned into light and entered their bodies simultaneously.

'I don't feel any different than normal?' Akeno was trying to analyze the contract as it seemed purely magic based, but even then she could feel nothing, 'I wonder if he feels something, no I am sure he does.'

"So, Akeno…" It was here that Akeno looked up after hearing Adam.

She saw him looking away scratching his face before he continued.

"I am sorry for being insensitive before… I shouldn't have asked you that type of question," Adam said with a sigh as he looked at her, but this only made Akeno smile as she stood up and….

"Ara Ara~ could it be that you are trying to make me fall for you with that kindness since I am in an emotional turmoil now?" Akeno looked at Adam with a mischievous smile but the answer she got back was…

"As if you'll fall for me, haha,"

'What? Don't tell me!' Akeno looked at Adam in shock as he laughed it was like…

"Adam, Did something happen?"
