Pillar of Hatred

Chapter 40

(Y/N Pov)

It's late at night the next day with Rias's peerage along with myself in the school's gym. We aren't supposed to be here technically but seeing as Devil's run this town... Rias and Sona pulled some strings.

Rias: They've got two extra people, so we've asked them to be referees.

Issei: Why can't Y/N just join so it's only one extra person?

Me: Because it'd be extremely unfair Issei. I don't want to downplay Rias or Sona's magical powers but my family's power specializes in war and fighting. So in simple terms, it'd be a massacre.

Issei: Oh... Well, I haven't played dodgeball since grade school.

Rias: The object here is to win, so going with simpler rules is best.

Kiba: Even Asia learned the game right away.

Looking over at Asia who just moaned bc Akeno is forcing her to stretch I can't tell if Akeno's sadist side is coming through or if she genuinely wants to help Asia stretch...

Asia: Ah, I can't take anymore!

Akeno: Just hang on a little more, okay?

Asia: O-Okay...

Looking at Issei I can see he's perving so I look towards Koneko who's helping him stretch.

Me: Koneko, I think Issei needs more stretching.

She looks at me before nodding and pushing Issei's back down more making the sounds of something crack. Oh shit Koneko, you really went far on that one... After Issei recovers from Koneko breaking his back he went over and grabbed some headbands from his bag which say "Occult Research Club" on them. So I guess this is what he needed the needle and thread for.

Rias: Headbands?

Akeno: Ara ara how gorgeous.

Issei: I stayed up all night making them.

Rias: You didn't sleep?

Issei: After as hard as you tried for us, President and Akeno, and Koneko and Kiba today, too, I thought, "I should at least do something for everyone." Um, were headbands a lame idea to go with?

Rias: Mm-mm, you did well. These really are fantastic, Issei.

Wrapping my arm around his neck I congratulate him since I can tell he's a perv... but also nice.

Me: Well done, at this rate I might go introduce you to some devil women you could make fall for you.

Issei: Oh, no, I wouldn't go that far.

Koneko: You should probably trust Y/N, Issei. Knowing him he probably knows a place or people that could help him.

Rias: Let's put these on, and all play together as one team!

Everyone but me: Yes!

Sona: Sorry to keep you waiting.

Looking behind me I see Sona's peerage all come in wearing their gym clothing with Sona holding the ball they'll likely use for dodgeball. We all greet each other before everyone gets into their places to start the game while I sit on the side with the two peerage members who are being refs from Sona's peerage.

I can't help but laugh as everyone treats Issei as if he died after getting nailed in the gonads. And after Asia and Issei come off Koneko is the one with the ball. To my shock Koneko just threw the ball fairly hard right into Saji's gonads sending him out for the count this time. As much as I wanna feel bad for him he was talking shit beforehand so I can't feel too bad.
