During lunch break, August returned to the student council.
"I heard that Rias just looked for you?"
"Yes, she directly proposed to make me her peerage."
"Uh, how did you respond?"
Sona was curious about how August rejected Rias.
"I made a bet with her. We had a fight, and if I won, I would become her peerage. If I lost, her first time would be mine."
"You..."
August's words left Sona unsure of how to evaluate him. Although she guessed it might be a joke, making such jokes with a girl seemed a bit too much.
"So, what happened? Did you win, or did you lose? What about Rias?"
"Of course, I won. Losing was never an option. As for Rias, she just conceded, and Sirzechs immediately called me, exposing everything."
"Hahaha~"
Sona burst into laughter, looking at August, who seemed displeased, with great joy.
Not only Sona , even Tsubaki, who was processing documents, couldn't help but raise her lips slightly. August was clearly trying to trick someone, but he ended up trapping himself.
"So, what happened in the end?"
"Nothing much, just gave her a small apology, and we moved on."
"What kind of apology?"
"I gave her five Wild Scrolls and five Speed Scrolls."
"What about your potions?"
"I didn't give those. Those potions are not to be given away casually, they're used up one by one."
Hearing August's words, Sona laughed because it seemed like she and Rias were treated differently. She received more than Rias, which meant she was more special.
On the other hand, Tsubaki looked at August with a speechless expression. Used up one by one? Who didn't know that someone, for the sake of making her change into a maid outfit, directly threw twenty bottles of potions.
Thinking about that time, Tsubaki's face turned slightly red. She had worn a maid outfit for the first time in her life.
"President, we're here."
At this moment, the five girls led by Tomoe Meguri entered the room.
Since August treated them to a big meal a few days ago, they came to the student council every day during lunch because August always brought a lot of delicious food.
Sona, who was initially smiling, froze when she heard Tomoe's voice.
These girls, although members of the student council, had never helped her with anything. Especially Tomoe, who even joined the Kendo Club and became its president.
All the matters of the student council, big and small, were handled by herself and Tsubaki.
Now that August was here, they would come to the student council every day. This made her very unhappy.
"Since everyone is here, let's eat."
August skillfully brought out plate after plate of food, all of which he had prepared in advance.
In the past few days, August bought a large amount of food from a restaurant, stored it, and took it out during meals. It could be kept warm during the meal.
"Wow, another big meal."
Tomoe's face was full of joy, sitting on the sofa and immediately started eating.
The other four were accustomed to it, quickly taking their seats, starting their lunch for today.
Watching the beautiful scene of the five girls eating, August looked at Sona, using his eyes to signal her, "See, your peerages have been bought by me."
In response, Sona rolled her eyes directly, feeling disappointed in these five people. They were swayed with just a few meals.
However, despite thinking so, Sona still walked over and joined the dining sequence. After all, it wasn't the first time, and not eating would be a waste.
August, seeing all of this, couldn't help but laugh. In less than a week, he had succeeded in most of his plan.
Sona and her peerages were getting more and more familiar with him, becoming friends.
"Oh, Tsubaki, are you free tonight?"
"Huh? Seems like I don't have anything, why?"
"I ordered something online, so I want you to come over tonight. Of course, I will follow the proper procedures."
"Ordered something online?"
Thinking of August's 'special' hobbies, Tsubaki's face turned slightly red.
A man who could make someone wear a maid outfit for photos, his preferences didn't need much thought.
"Well, I..."
"I'll summon you tonight, don't worry, the reward remains the same."
"Okay."
Hearing this last sentence, Tsubaki agreed. Twenty bottles of Large Healing Potions, twenty bottles of Large Magic Potions, this reward was indeed too generous.
And all she had to do was change her clothes and take some photos for him. Moreover, they were just ordinary photos, not any special ones.
Watching these two who seemed to be playing dumb charades, Sona was puzzled and came up with some thoughts.
A man calling a woman over at night, saying the reward remains the same, and the woman blushing, everything seemed to converge, sparking various imaginations.
However, Tsubaki was not only her peerage but also her best friend. Sona didn't want to ask directly, giving her some privation. But she was curious.
The five girls led by Tomoe didn't notice what was happening here. They were immersed in the enjoyment of the food.
Tsubaki and Sona, one absent-minded and the other quietly observing, made the atmosphere in the student council gradually become strange.
Soon, the time for a meal passed.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
"Please come in~"
Squeak~
The door was pushed open, and Rias, with her long crimson hair, walked in. Behind her were her peerages.
As soon as she entered, seeing the various delicious dishes on the table and everyone around already full, even though Rias didn't lack food, she felt a bit uneasy.
"You came, Rias?"
Seeing Rias, Sona was also a bit surprised.
After all, these two had been competitive since childhood. Now, the other party took the initiative to come to the student council. It puzzled her.
"It's something urgent, Sona."
While speaking, her gaze fell on August.
This time, there was no need to say anything, everyone understood. Rias came for whom.
