"Evil should have no reason to be evil, other than to be evil."
Disclaimer: Don't take this piece of crap seriously
Since I technically assisted in killing Issei. Was the world trying to make me the new chosen?
That red orb, if I wasn't wrong, definitely had to do with Ddraig soul, no?
Note: MC could not see what I kept there in the last chapter, it's mostly for the viewers to see.
But this is a problem. I don't want anything to do with it or become this world's chosen.
Well, there's no need to think about it much. After all, "I did it. Just like you said."
Amano Yumma, she was standing in front of me with an expression I couldn't quite put my hands on, but I loved it.
Her expression held nothing but pure disdain as she pushed her figure against mine as my back pressed against a wall.
"Tough words, even though I was the one who handled that part."
"What?"
Her eyes widened as I broke the news to her, but with each negative expression of hers, crap, I can't help but getting turned on.
Well, when I say turned on, I don't mean I'm hard; rather, my heart's fluttering like crazy just seeing her twisted expression.
"If you look at me like that, you'd only make me fall in love with "that expression" of yours."
"What are you talking about, damn creep?"
Despite her attempts to make it serious.
I wasn't even taking her seriously.
If not for the fact that she'd bite, I'd have patted her.
And by the way, I didn't take my painkilling drugs, so I can't afford to make jokes that'd make her snap.
Well, that doesn't mean I'm afraid.
By the way, it's currently Monday.
I had been on my way to school when I met her by the road leading to Kuoh High.
From there, she dragged me into an alleyway.
"Raynare. No, you're Yuuma now. I'd like it if you let me go; I will meet up with you later."
"Seems like you want to die, vermin."
As she said, she now took a step back, clutching her spear, glaring at me with hatred. If gazes could kill, I'd have died many times over.
"Huff. Originally, as you left, the Gremory girl would have resurrected Issei by teleporting over, and yes, he was still around by then."
"All I did was simple. mess with the teleportation spell and delay the arrival of the Gremory Heir. Easy, no?"
As I said that, I saw her flinch for a moment.
Next, she began to size me up for some reason I don't know.
"Y… you messed—no, how do I believe you?"
Oh? Did she think I'm also supernatural too?
Well, I wasn't particularly lying.
After all, I messed with the paper that allowed her to get to him.
I wasn't exactly wrong, but it seems like she did take it that way.
However, she's hiding it well.
After all, she lowered her spear of light a little, subtle, but enough for me to see it.
Seeing that, my lips involuntarily curled up as I approached her, this time pressing my own body against her as she backed up against the other wall of the narrow alleyway.
"Y-you—!"
"What was that freak's name again? Kokabiel, was it? The old man Valper, or whatever it's called, and their Project Excalibur."
"I wonder what Azazel would do when such information gets to him. The White Dragon Emperor, no, maybe he'd send that living disaster, Slash Dog."
As I said so, our eyes locked.
On that note, our faces were close enough that I could steal a kiss from her if I wanted.
I was pushing my luck, I know.
But it would be worth it if I could see that face also filled with confusion.
While I liked her expression of disdain better, this one too was good in its own way.
She reminds me of that one girl from Classroom of the Elite, Kushida, was it?
Yeah, that's a girl. I liked her too. "Don't be deceived by bad girls," so they'd say. I, on the other hand, would say, "I love girls with mental problems."
Naturally, it's a stretch to say I liked Raynare.
But at least, she's better than a pure girl like Asia by my standards.
In fact, how good would it be to corrupt someone like Asia?
But that's too much stress. And of course, I'd clarify while I'm at it. Raynare nor Yuuma are my type either.
"L-lies. You possibly can't get—"
She's trying to regain her dignity, isn't she? Not that I'd let her do that, though.
"I know where Slash Dog's base of operation is."
God bless the fanfics and wikis I've seen in my past life. Oh wait, this world's Biblical God is dead. Micheal bless my past life self.
"That…"
"All it takes"
While it wasn't specified which town his base of operation is in.
Deducing 2 plus 2 may be four, which leads me to believe their base is stationed somewhere around Kyoto or any town close to that.
Naturally, I'm also bluffing.
"And you think I'd allow you to do that?"
"Of course not~ Hence, I've taken the liberty to leave a message on your behalf to the Devils. Contingency plan."
Naturally, I also believed something like this would happen.
But I've thought ahead of that too.
Word would have spread about Issei's death, and if I were to be missing, Rias and Sona's suspicions would tighten against them.
And then, boom! War.
But by then, I wouldn't be able to have a front-row seat at that, so I hope this bluff would be enough to scare or mislead her.
"Nngh… this…"
She completely dropped her resistance…
Was this too easy?
No, not necessarily.
Let's consider it.
I've rooted this in her; I don't fear her. Additionally, I know a lot of things I shouldn't, and she didn't know.
Surely, if I were to bluff all these, there's no doubt the root will slowly begin to germinate.
But why does it look simple?
Her current expression was looking like I could take advantage of her right now. So, let's add more fire.
"Now that Issei's dead. They have no doubt it's you. Besides, weren't you and your goons behind the constant killings?"
"Even if you were going to kill me, I have a backup plan in case. I have a timed mail on my device, you see, and if I don't constantly edit the mail, it would automatically be sent to Sona Sitri, who also happens to be the little sister of Leviathan."
"How did I have her mail? Well, isn't she the student president?"
"The mail stuff is bullshit?"
"Then. How do you think alarms work? It's very well possible to have an email programmed like that. And since it's over the net, you'd have to destroy the internet and intercept it which unfortunately, you can't do such a feat,"
That is to say, the stuff about the email being timed was utterly bullshit, but I was relentlessly going to push her like so.
I said most things she herself would say in succession, which would further make her believe that I planned for this.
And, did I? I did.
"You… you are crazy."
She finally seemed to drop her facade and suddenly started looking at me with fear.
Especially when I mentioned Leviathan, her face paled. Who wouldn't know Leviathan?
Even if Yuuma escaped Kuoh, this matter could be pushed real hard since they know the Fallens are behind it.
On that note, even if the Devils try to be rational about it.
All it takes is a guilt trip.
There are many people to use.
Friends and family would even be the best to use.
No doubt, immature devils like they wouldn't feel the guilt trap.
Sona might not budge, but Rias, who is in a serious situation with her life, certainly would.
'Seriously. Meta knowledge is so damn unfair.'
Of course, you have to be crazy like me and unafraid of death to pull this off.
"Dear Yuuma. This world is crazier than you think. There are also lots of things in this world."
"Azazel, whom you worship so blindly, do you know there are beings even higher than him?"
As I said that, her eyes trembled.
"Yes. Dragon Gods. Ones even the Biblical God feared."
With that coming out of my mouth, her leg finally gave up as she fell on the ground.
I know this too.
And if it's coming from my mouth, it probably tells her they exist. After all, current generations see Dragon Gods as legends.
Then what would happen if I told her that there are also machine gods who can one-shot a Dragon God?
And mind you, that one was just a servant of the Evies.
"Dear Yuuma. If there's nothing else for now. I'll be taking my leave."
I said as I slung my bag over my shoulder as I began to walk away. Then I paused, looking back.
"If you want to live. Work for me."
I may be omniscient in her eyes. But all I currently need isn't even powers. I need resources more than power.
Trying to manipulate the supernaturals is arrogant of me. But I can't call myself a third-rate villain if I can't do that much.
"Of course, if not, and you come for my life. I'm more than prepared to ruin yours. With my omniscience, that is."
Naturally, this is a bluff, scam, sham, or blackmail.
But I walked off after saying that, leaving her worldview distorted beyond belief.
-Raynare-
Sacred Gear.
That had to be it. Otherwise, it doesn't explain how he's able to see the future.
But considering the Biblical God was able to create so many overpowered items.
A gear like this is possible.
"That means no matter what I do, it's useless."
Raynare clenched her teeth as she soon began to bite her nails.
How did she come to such conclusions?
By the time he was talking down on her, she began to feel a pressure against her shoulders.
Something she'd only have gotten from really strong people.
Such a thing, she felt it from him. Hence, it led her to believe an omniscient sacred gear exists.
But now, what should she do?
Reporting to the higher-ups was an option. But what should she say?
"Oh, I killed a kid and was approached by another that told me to do it, and after that he told me he's omniscient—" As fucking if.
As if she can say that.
While this gave her a headache, she couldn't help but think back about that creepy feeling.
'But then, he's a sacred gear user; he also knows about Kokabiel-sama, and that human Azazel-sama took a liking to.'
Not only them, Asia, Freed, and the White Dragon Emperor, he also knows about them all.
What should she do now? If what he said is true. The devils already have eyes on her. And if she tries to leave Kuoh—
A certain madman wouldn't allow her to do that in peace.
"Kuh! Damn it!"
Raynare yelled as she slammed her fist against the wall.
As she did, she noticed a few men that walked into the alleyway at this moment.
"Phew! What a beauty."
"What are you doing here alone in the first place?"
"Wow, what a body."
Seeing them, Raynare's face went blank for a moment. Then on her face, a twisted smile happened.
Yes. Why doesn't she use these humans to test if he really was omniscient?
This wasn't a dumb Raynare anymore. This was now a Raynare who had begun using her brain to think. To get what she wants. To escape that man.
If he really is omniscient, then she'll work for him. As at that point. There's no escaping it.
