[Friday, eight o'clock, Kuoh Academy]
[Pov: Micael]
'Ugh...'
'Damn, it feels like my brain was put in a blender.'
'Okay, let's analyze, sharp pain in eyes, checked, headache, of course, heavy body, yes, sluggish senses, undeniably.'
'Yes, I feel like shit, much worse than last time.'
'I better get up soon, do I still have to-uh?'
'...What's that...sweet smell? Smells like...strawberry? Not only that, what is this extremely soft and... warm feeling...'
With that smell and the feeling on my body, I opened my eyes in an instant.
"Huh..."
That was the only thing I could say when faced with the sight of red hair, blue eyes, and a big blush on a certain devil girl's face.
[Pov: 3rd Person]
Inside a room in the old school building at Kuoh Acedemy, the atmosphere conveyed ambiguity.
And the reason for that was that, inside that room, on a bed, was a half-naked Micael, wearing the same shorts as before and with his torso exposed.
But next to him, hugged against his body was a nearly naked Rias, wearing nothing but dark red lacy panties.
With his face turned to the side and aligned with her face, Micael kept his eyes on her eyes without looking away, with his senses slowly returning to normal, he also felt something small and hard against his arm pressed against her breast.
Considering the position of his arm, he knew what it was, and with his peripheral vision he could already tell that she wasn't wearing a bra, so he didn't look away either.
'That's that magic she used to heal Issei in the first few episodes, right? Something about needing intimate contact or something.'
With that fleeting thought passing through his still sluggish mind, Micael looked at the increasingly reddening Rias in silence, their breaths faintly hitting their faces.
"Rias, why are you without clothes? And why are you hugging me?" — In a calm tone, Micael asked her.
Rias, whose racing heart was pounding, pursed her lips as she spoke slowly. — "Calm down...I can explain, just...please don't misunderstand."
The tension in her voice was clear, the last thing Rias wanted at that moment was for Micael to think she was some kind of weird pervert who was taking advantage of him in his injured state.
Looking at her eyes that convey her nervousness, Micael calmly looked away and looked at the ceiling, saying. — "Hmm, I'm listening."
At that moment, despite the state of his body and mind, there was a part of Micael's body that didn't care about any of this and wanted to "get up".
One of the characteristics of many men. is that even in a very bad state, like a bad flu or with broken bones in the body, they will still be horny and can have an erection.
Micael, despite his condition, looked away from Rias to the ceiling as a way to reduce the stimulation he was having, so he could focus on ignoring the sensation of her body and not having an erection.
At that moment, he was resisting and preventing the blood that had already reached his dick from continuing to flow, trying not to focus on the feeling of Rias' breasts and half-hard nipple.
Fortunately, his view of the other nipple was covered by her arm hugging him or he wouldn't have been able to avoid a reaction.
Rias, unaware of the battle that Micael was fighting at that moment, began to narrate the events that had occurred and, more importantly, to explain why they were like that.
...
Inside the orc's room the atmosphere was tense, it had been a few minutes since Grayfia had left and Rias, Akeno, Koneko and Kiba were anxiously awaiting her return.
Kiba was sitting on one of the sofas, arms crossed and a calm expression, he had already received the explanation of what had happened.
He was worried but not on a level that affected his emotions, after all he had not interacted with Micael for there to be any type of bond.
But I wanted Micael to be okay, both because he seemed like a good person and because it would be a shame if he died.
And also, given Rias' worried state, he didn't like seeing her in that state.
Sitting next to him, things were similar with Koneko, but unlike Kiba, the sparring she had with Micael made her have a memorable impression of him.
She was more worried about his condition, concern evident in the way she ate, it was already the third plate of cookies she had eaten.
She also hoped that he hadn't died or that something worse had happened and also because she didn't like seeing Rias' anxiety.
Akeno was sitting on the other sofa, her hands holding a cup of tea that she sipped silently, her expression calm but anxiety was noticeable by the way her hands tapped the cup rhythmically.
Just like Koneko, Akeno had a greater impression of Micael, the few times they interacted were enough to remain engraved in her memory, not to mention her growing interest in the boy.
It wasn't romantic at all, it was more of an interest because she found him attractive in both appearance and personality, and seeing his involvement with Rias stopped her from trying anything, even with her private fantasy.
In the end, this situation made her reflect on some things, but she was more worried about Rias, so, out of her own free will and for Rias' sake, she hoped that Micael was okay.
And Rias, the source of the others' concern, was at that moment pacing back and forth behind Akeno's sofa.
She had one of her arms crossed, the other near her mouth with her thumbnail being bitten, her brow furrowed while a look that betrayed her inner emotions never left the corner of the room.
In this state that made others worried, she was definitely the most worried as she anxiously awaited Grayfia's return.
And luckily for her, she didn't have to wait long, after a few minutes that seemed like an eternity, the familiar magic circle appeared.
With the other three getting up from the couches, they all anxiously watched the appearance of the luminous forms of two beings.
But they immediately realized something was wrong.
The magic circle fell apart and Grayfia appeared together with Micael, the problem was that the latter was unconscious in the former's arms, shirtless and wearing only shorts.
Everyone reacted quickly as they approached her, encountering the alarming sight of the veins around Micael's eyes, along with the drops of blood that slowly came out, giving the impression that his eyes had been gouged out.
Rias felt her throat constrict as she tried to ask. — "H-he..."
"He's fine." — Grayfia replied before she asked, her calm gaze passing from Rias to the boy in her arms. — "At least that's what my diagnosis showed, he doesn't have any injuries other than his eyes, it looks like he pushed them beyond their limit."
Saying those words, Grayfia moved with them following her as she slowly placed him on the couch.
Once done, she gently opened one of Micael's eyes, revealing the extremely irritated eye, its sclera was full of red veins while its pupil was dilated.
Not only that, his iris seemed to lose some color and his pupil seemed a little dull, it was as if he was going blind.
This sight only served to increase tension among the others, regardless of what it was, it didn't seem like a good thing.
"...What happened to leave him in this state?" — Frowning tightly, Kiba asked in a whispery tone, more to himself than anything.
But Grayfia answered him anyway. — "A fight for survival, those men he was suspicious of must have found him, I found him unconscious leaning against an alley, but not far from him was an area that appeared to have been where he was fighting."
"Why couldn't you locate him sooner? Where did you find him?" — Akeno asked as she looked away from Micael to Grayfia, her brow furrowed, her hands on her elbows and her arms crossed.
Rising from her crouched position, Grayfia responded while still keeping a calm gaze on Micael. — "The nearby area where he must have fought still had remnants of a barrier spell, which must have been the cause of the interference, as for where I found him…"
Pausing for a moment, Grayfia looked away from them as she continued. — "I found him in Saitama Prefecture."
"What?!" — It was Akeno and Kiba's reaction, with Koneko just blinking her eyes in reaction, but the three were surprised by this, the distance between Kuoh and Saitama was not small, after all Kuoh was in Tokyo.
But the fact that he was somewhere else wasn't what really surprised them, with teleportation magic that was entirely possible, the question is who could have used that magic were humans.
Recognizing the expression on the three's faces and the unasked question as they looked at her, Grayfia confirmed in a simple tone. — "Yes, these humans used teleportation magic."
And with her confirmation, the three just remained silent, they understood that the meaning of something like this was no small thing.
"Anyway, we can talk about this when he wakes up, we should focus on healing him." — Grayfia spoke as she returned her gaze to Micael, then, she looked at the girl who had been silent until now.
"Rias." — When calling her in a soft tone, Grayfia saw that she looked lost, her gaze focused on the boy on the sofa was unfocused, she looked tense and a little pale.
Rias, who until then was focused on Micael without noticing the things around her, finally snapped out of her state when looking at Grayfia.
"I don't know the exasperated state of his eyes at the moment, but it doesn't seem to require more advanced treatment with a phoenix tear." — Grayfia began to calmly explain to her. — "The point is, in his current state, he needs to be cured."
Finishing her words, she didn't need to explain for Rias to understand what she meant.
In fact, an expression of understanding appeared on Rias's face, and she wasn't the only one who understood what that meant.
As Rias slowly frowned and a blush began to appear on her face, Akeno on the side who was looking at her spoke.
"I can do that if you want." — Akeno thought this might be a step too far for Rias, even though she was a little nervous herself, it was natural for her to help her, as a friend and as a member of her peerage.
Rias looked at Akeno, she understood her reasons, but she had no interest in running away from the situation at this point, she would take the responsibility of healing Micael.
'After all, as your partner, I must take responsibility for helping you...right, your partner.' — With that thought resulting in the realization of something, Rias turned her gaze to Micael and adopting a serious look on her flushed face, she spoke. — "No need, I'll do it."
Akeno looked at her silently for a moment, but seeing that she seemed sure of it, ended up nodding her head in understanding.
"Are you sure, Buchou? I can do that if you want." — At that moment, Kiba volunteered after Akeno, after all he imagined it would be very uncomfortable for Rias, he didn't want her to sacrifice herself when he could do that.
However, his words only caused a strange atmosphere to appear and the woman and the three girls just looked at him strangely.
Being stared at by those questioning gazes, Kiba could only utter in confusion. — "What? Did I say something wrong?" — He asked confused, wondering what the problem was.
Looking at him for a moment and seeing that he looked genuinely confused, Rias shook her head as she responded. — "It's nothing Kiba, I'll do it."
Turning her gaze to Micael once more, she looked at Grayfia and nodded.
Grayfia nodded as she spoke. — "Alright, I'll tell Sirzecs-sama what happened, then I'll come back so that if he wakes up he can explain to us what happened."
Upon hearing Grayfia, Rias' serious look changed for a moment before returning, her brother probably wouldn't be very pleased with her decision, but she had already made up her mind, so she just silently nodded to Grayfia.
With Rias's nod, Grayfia picked Micael up from the couch and carried him to a bedroom, the other four following behind.
Once there, she opened the door and entered, placing the boy on the bed, she turned back to where the others were.
"He's a little dirty, do you want me to clean him?" — Grayfia asked after turning to Rias.
Arriving beside her, Rias still blushing and frowning while keeping her eyes on Micael replied. — "Don't worry, it's okay like this."
Without saying anything else, Grayfia nodded one last time as she turned towards the door, then signaling to the others, she began to leave with them following her.
Click—
Without having the courage to turn around, the click confirmed that she was alone now, a mixture of nervousness and embarrassment slowly took over her.
With her frown changing to trembling eyebrows, she closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths.
Regaining some calm, she opened her eyes looking at Micael once more before shifting the focus to herself.
She then moved her hands as she began to unbutton her school uniform, taking off her vest and button-down shirt, the sound of the clothes rustling as she let them fall to the floor.
Moving on to the skirt, she turned it around as she slowly lowered the zipper, making a faint noise as she let it fall to the floor.
Moving her arms behind her, she unclasped her bra, her breasts almost dangling as she slowly removed the straps from her shoulders, letting it fall to the floor as well.
Wearing nothing but dark red lacy panties, a red-faced Rias looked down for a moment, focusing on her pink nipples that were slowly hardening from the mix of emotions.
Feeling a mixture of nervousness, excitement, and embarrassment, she took another deep breath as she slowly climbed onto the bed.
Coming to Micael's side, she slowly put her arm around him and gently brought him against her, hugging him.
Feeling his body against hers, the heat and hardness, a sensation much more raw and impactful than what had happened before, Rias focused on his face.
The strong musky smell of sweat, along with the faint smell of deodorant and perfume hit her nose, along with the iron smell of blood.
Taking a deep breath smelling him, she brought her head closer and rested it on his shoulder, closing her eyes, she then began to heal him.
...
Rias then finished explaining what happened, leaving out of course Grayfia's offer to clean him up and her refusal, and details of certain things like how she took off her clothes.
And after that, she just looked at Micael's side profile, the blush still present on her somewhat nervous face as she remained silent waiting for what he would say.
Her pounding and resounding heart only revealed her emotional state.
And Micael, who felt her gaze and anxious waiting, reflected a little before saying the first thing that came to mind.
"Huh."
Well the fact that he was surprised wasn't strange, Akeno offering to heal him was unexpected but logical, he could understand her reasoning in Rias' own words.
For him, Rias realizing her intentions was not unexpected, but the girl herself couldn't hide why she insisted on doing this despite her nervousness, something that was clear to him, but the girl herself didn't notice.
After all, she said it herself when explaining herself before, 'after all, we are partners'.
Obviously, her emotional state prevented her from realizing how she was speaking, but when she calms down and remembers it later, she will realize it.
And with this indirect confirmation, Micael was now sure of Rias' feelings for him, but it was not the right time to confront her, he had to resolve something first.
Other than that, the other thing that surprised him the most was actually Kiba, like, what the fuck?
'Bro, I believe you're not gay, but you're not helping yourself either.'
Micael's thought made something clear, Kiba's speech was suspicious as hell, but considering how in Rias' words he genuinely seemed to not understand the implications behind it, he decided to maintain the belief that Kiba wasn't from...the other side.
Snapping out of his musings, he muttered weakly, responding to Rias's waiting. — "To think there was healing magic like that."
Reacting quickly, Rias responded immediately. — "Yes, it is the only healing method the devils have."
"Hmm." — Micael hummed weakly in response.
A silence then fell between them, causing Rias' nervousness to return with a vengeance, so she decided to ask directly.
"So...you understand that I'm not a weirdo or anything right?" — The question asked in a weak and uncertain tone only made Rias even more embarrassed.
"Hmm? Oh, it's okay, I don't think you're an exhibitionist or anything, you really cured me, I can say that." — Micael responded, still with his eyes looking at the ceiling, raising one of his hands and placing it in front of his face before lowering it.
"Haaa." — Rias sighed in relief, the meaning of this act and her position going unnoticed through her mind.
With the hot air that came out of her mouth on his shoulder, Micael continued talking more to himself as he thought about the situation. — "I mean, if it were another situation I would definitely think you were a weird pervert, not just that, actually."
Rias froze upon hearing these new words, now calmer, the blush on her face slowly fading as she looked at him.
"...What do you mean?" — She asked slowly, her gaze questioning as she seemingly forgot her situation.
Without looking at her, Micael began to ramble. — "Well if we put this in a hypothetical situation like, I know nothing, I have none power and I believe I'm just a normal human and I get attacked out of nowhere, I almost die just to wake up with Rias Gremory half-naked in my bed, yes, I would definitely think differently."
Micael was thinking about Issei's original situation, if he remembered correctly, that's more or less how it happened.
Putting himself in Issei's shoes, his thinking would definitely be different, but his focus was mainly on the fact that if a woman was almost naked in the bed of a guy she just met, even if she had a logical reason, at the very least one would question her character.
At least that's what happened in the anime from what he remembered, when Issei woke up and the scene that appeared was of a smiling RIas with her nipples showing, it was obviously fan service, but what if you put it in a situation in real life?
And that was exactly what was happening to him now, if he hadn't already been suspicious of her feelings for him, he would still have found it strange even though he already knew the logical reason.
Squinting her eyes, the blush on her face disappearing completely, Rias asked slowly. — "...Would you think differently? What do you mean?"
"Well, based on that scenario, I would definitely think you were a weird pervert and possibly a slut." — Micael spoke calmly, as if he had no idea of the reaction his words could cause, well, he did, he just underestimated it.
"What!?" — Rias exclaimed as she stood up, the anger and indignation she felt made her ignore her exposed breasts. — "What do you mean you would consider me a slut!?"
Micael, who had closed his eyes when she got up, responded in the same calm tone. — "I was talking about a hypothetical situation."
Frowning, the indignation on her face still evident, she responded in an accusatory tone. — "That doesn't change the fact that you would still consider me a slut."
Hearing her words and her tone, Micael felt a great urge to rub his face and sigh, his hand slowly going to the bridge of his nose as he breathed slowly and deeply.
'What the fuck, we're not even a couple yet and we're already arguing.'
"It's just a hypothetical scenario, Rias, a hypothetical scenario, why are you caring so much about this anyway?" — Micael spoke in a calm and slow tone, he was starting to feel strangely tired.
With her brow still furrowed, but now with a pout in her indignant expression, Rias spoke. — "That's not the point, Micael." — Then, apparently forgetting his condition, she slapped his chest.
"Ouch." — The slap was weak, he barely felt it, and his calm tone of voice indicated that, but that word was enough for Rias to react strongly.
"Ah!" — With a scream, all of Rias' indignation and anger disappeared as worry washed over her. — "Did I hurt you? I'm sorry, I did it without thinking, I'm so sorry!" — Her tone was urgent as she touched Micael's chest carefully as if she was afraid of hurting him.
Upon hearing her tone and feeling her fingers touching him gently, Micael responded unconcernedly, still with his eyes closed. — "Nah, I'm fine, the problem is my eyes, the rest of my body is fine." — His hand rising and gesturing for her to be carefree in support of his words.
"Are you sure?" — Rias asked uncertainly, her eyebrows knit together in doubt.
"Yes, I'm sure." — Micael responded to her, still unconcerned.
"...I see, in that case." — Saying that, Rias moved her hand and blatantly slapped Micael's chest again, it was as weak as the previous one, but she did it anyway.
Then the frown and indignant pout returned to her face as she looked at him.
And at that moment Micael's face was completely expressionless, if his eyes weren't closed the empty look he was giving her would have been visible.
'Are you serious, girl? you change moods faster than I change shirts.'
