Diluc's Mansion (3rd Person Pov)

Sirzechs: There's also one more thing I should mention to you

Diluc took a quick glance to his right to witness Mordred picking Koneko up with eyes of excitement before turning back to his elder brother

Diluc: What is it?

Zeoticus: It's the Lawrence Household

Diluc's eyes sharpened at the name of the household and his hold on his utensils tightened

Diluc: What about them?

Sirzechs: From Serafall's sources of information it seems the Lawrence Household may be plotting something with a strange organisation called the Fatui

Diluc: The Fatui? I've never heard of such a name

Sirzechs: That's because they're from Ninmenjushin

Diluc: I see, well what is it that you want me to do?

Sirzechs: I want you to investigate the Lawrence Household and if you come to the decision that they are working with the Fatui then I want you to wipe them out completely

Diluc dropped his utensils and stared at his brother, Rias's peerage hadn't uttered a word the entire time but they heard everything that was going on and were vividly surprised at the conversation right now

Diluc: Even I cannot agree to do that

Sirzechs: This is for the safety of the underworld!

Sirzechs stood up acting completely out of character, he then looked and saw everyone staring at him making him clear his throat awkwardly then sit down as he crossed his arms

Sirzechs: Anyways as I was saying this is for the safety of the underworld

Diluc: Yeah I know, but even I cannot bring myself to wipe out an entire household, you should confront Xiao or Tartaglia for this type of job but not me

Venelana: Hold it

Both Diluc and Sirzechs turned to Venelana who looked unpleased with what they were conversing about

Venelana: We have a contract with the Lawrence Household that Diluc and Eula will marry each other don't we?

Mordred: Eh?

Mordred dropped Koneko onto the ground then slammed her hands on the dining table

Mordred: Since when?! How long has this been around?!

Diluc: Since I was about 3 years old although the marriage got delayed when I first awakened my powers then it got further delayed when I became a member of the six

Mordred: And you're just going to accept this like it's nothing?!

Diluc: What my family proposes for me is final, there's rejecting what they say, it's just how it works in noble families

Issei: Then may I suggest a rating game?

Diluc looked at Issei who had his hand up timidly

Diluc: Oh right, that's how Rias managed to get out of her engagement with Riser

Rias: Speaking about my rating game you never watched my match

Diluc: There was no need for me to come and watch the match in person besides I'm too busy with my duties as one of the six, there was no way I could've made time to go watch your match
