Several days had passed since the monster crisis in the Underworld. Erin's death made a large impact to the members and this caused them to increase their closeness to the Goddess.
“Uh.....This is my room, right?” Erin mumbled to herself. Her bed was occupied with the majority of the girls and she was confused on the number of people sleeping on it.
"Erin....."
"Erin…do it more roughly……”
Rias and Akeno were sleep-talking and they cuddled closer to Erin. The red head was on Erin's left side while Akeno was on the right.
"Argh. I can't move!"
Erin found it hard to wriggle her way out due to both her arms being used as a pillow by the oneesamas. When she looked down, Xenovia was sleeping with her stomach exposed. Next to Xenovia was Irina, who was drooling and using her friend like a hug-pillow
"Hehe...The cakes in Heaven are so delicious……”
“……Nyan……”
Koneko was sleeping like a cat, and below her was Ophis, who was sleeping while putting her hand above her chest like a dead person.
"If I do this..." Erin slowly removed Akeno and Rias' hands away from her. "Okay. So next is I have to stand up gently so I can escape from here."
The Goddess successfully made her way out and she landed on the floor like a ninja.
"Since that monster crisis ended, it’s been like this every night." spoke Erin while fixing her clothes. "How am I supposed to sleep if there isn't any space left in the bed for me?"
With a sigh, she made her way downstairs to get some late night snacks.
"Erin, you're still awake?"
"Well, I awoke a while ago and decided to grab some snacks." replied Erin in a sheepish tone to her mother. "Also, I wanted to get some privacy for a little while after I found out that there is an increased number of people sleeping in my room."
"I assume those girls sneaked inside the room again?" Sebastian said after he took a sip of his tea.
"Yeah. They start to seek strongly for
me. It’s not anything sexual but more of an effort to stay close.""You can't blame them. The incident regarding your death really took a toll on them." Archaea commented. "The same goes for us."
*(WHOOSH!)*
"Hey what was that for?!" Erin stared at Sebastian accusingly after avoiding a magic blast coming from him.
"Payment for making us worry during that time." replied Sebastian in a calm manner.
"Geez." Erin glared at Sebastian for some time then her expression turned apologetic. "Sorry Mom, Sebastian. That incident wasn't really intentional. But I admit that I had an idea that it would arrive at some point."
"What do you mean?" Archaea asked in wonder.
Erin took a seat on one of the couches
"My Sacred Gear seems to have unlocked a hidden ability. That ability was related to predicting our near prophecy at some point. Simply put, Voltaire and I discovered that somewhere, in the near future, we will experience death."
Archaea gasped lightly while Sebastian looked surprised
"And you didn't inform us about that?"
"Well... Voltaire and I were relying on the probability that we can change the outcome." Erin said sheepishly. "And we did. We achieved the slight chance that I will be revived. We didn't disclose my impending death because we didn't want to worry everyone."
