Chapter 393: Hoe'ing Plans

—

Rias dismissed Neji right away, unwilling to give Sona a chance to say anything. Neji lifted Asia's sleeping body into his arms and teleported away.

Before leaving though, he got one last look at Koneko who had come out of her hiding by then. Their eyes locked, as the kitten shivered, and then he left.

Neji was almost sure it wasn't the case, but what if Koneko's sister – Kuroka Toujou – had any connection to Kimi? It was odd, as all the girls before had a similar appearance to the person they took over, whilst in this case, Kuroka had black hair, very unlike Kimi. So it was most likely not the case, but still...

'Oh well.'

Neji shook his head as he reappeared a bit far from Kuoh High. That was for later.

His Sage Mode canceled, as he gently shook Asia. He washed a bit of divinity over her form, as her eyelids twitched and she began to wake up.

At the same time, Sisty manifested using the Shadow Clone Jutsu, appearing beside him with her arms crossed.

"An illusion, really?"

She addressed the excuse Neji had used to describe her.

"What would they think tomorrow when I go to school?"

Asia was up by then, making Neji gently nudge her nose, as if she was a puppy, as the nun took it with a blush until he put her down. He turned to look at Sisty.

"It's fine, I'll just tell them I called you an illusion, but you're a projection of myself. So technically I didn't lie to them, as that does make you an illusion, but you are also real when you exist. Simple solution."

"Sounds like bullshit to me."

"They will buy it, trust me."

Sisty gave him a narrowed-eyed look and then sighed. She took Asia and hugged her while staring at him.

"I nearly destroyed Rias when she began to touch Asia, she was getting uncomfortable."

"I'm glad you didn't." Neji patted her head, causing her to frown as he ruffled her hair. "I think you need to learn how to talk. You are too used to being in my head, and then you just had to pick up Gil's personality out of all people."

She gave him a dry look as he smiled.

"Don't take any harmful actions, all right?"

"Sure."

Sisty was a shadow clone, but she was his system. So while she had the durability of a mere shadow clone, she had all the abilities of himself. If she so wishes, she could have destroyed Rias in a second.

"Mhm, what happened...?"

Asia managed to free herself from Sisty's hug and looked at Neji, questioningly.

"How did I fall asleep..."

"I made you fall asleep. It's alright, the talk went well."

Neji stopped patting Sisty and grabbed Asia by her waist, lifting her up and putting her on one side of his broad shoulder. She was surprised but she held on tight, even as a string of telekinetic force kept her held in place.

Neji began to walk, beside Sisty, as Asia asked more questions.

"They are devils, right? Lady Sisty told me they are..."

"They are devils, yes."

"Aren't they our enemies, then?"

"I guess they are. It doesn't mean I have to annihilate them, though, if that's what you are asking. I can just use them for my own benefit, and perhaps make them submit to me too. They oppose God, but that means if they don't oppose me, they can be mine to rule over. I'll give it one try to make them my people, and if it doesn't work, then... Well, I always have light magic."
