Issei woke up and looked around and saw Rias in the bed next to him he got out of bed and started stretching and then did a few push-ups and sit-ups he then went to shower and freshen up for the day, he gently woke up Rias and she smiled when she saw him

Rias:(half asleep) morning

Issei: morning, come on it's time to get up

She nodded and then he left to see his master.

He found Grayfia first and saw her doing some light cleaning

Issei: see this isn't so bad is it

Grayfia: don't tempt me I'm already fighting back a lot, just doing the bare minimum.

Issei: I have a question come with me

She nodded and walked with him

Issei: how does devil pregnancy work since you live so long is it longer than 9 months or is it on a different time scale for you?

Grayfia: it's around a month or two for the full development of the child then it takes the normal 8 months for them to grow up instead of like 2 or 3 years the first 8 months they can not be without a mother or father for long since they need magic from either mother or father to stay healthy on top of actual paternal and maternal reasons or they will die so when he or she is born I need to be as on the ball as I am with everything else and watch over them till they are strong enough to be left alone like a round 12 months then ill be able to leave them with you for example and nothing bad will come of it

Issei: I see that's interesting; I'll be there to help you out when you need it just call me I'll keep them close and let you do your thing

Grayfia: you already are helping this family a lot by helping Rias. Sirzechs told me about your plan I must say it seems like it works out well.

Issei: where is he anyway I thought that he would be dotting on you to make sure you not doing anything

Grayfia: he's in a meeting with the other devil kings

Issei: you mentioned that before other devil kings so there's more than one

Grayfia: yes, that is correct, so when do you plan on leaving to go to the vacation home for training

Issei: Whenever Rias is ready I'm packed already Ddraig is holding all the things I'm going to need

Grayfia: well I hope you enjoy it because even you need a break sometimes you know even if you are assisting them do your own training so you get something out of it as well and you don't fall behind

Issei: please I'm just getting started I can do so much more in time right now is just a change of pace for me Then I'll be able to protect myself and those I care about

He smiled at her and she gave a soft smile back

Grayfia: hmm Mother was right you do bring hope I see it

Issei: then I promise to keep things that way for as long as I can

He sat down and made Grayfia lay down and she rested her head on his lap

Issei: now I know I'm going to be gone for two weeks but please do it for me and Sirzechs to not overstrain yourself

She started rubbing her head to help her relax and be and be at peace for a bit

Grayfia: I know and I promise to take things easy light work the helpers around the house can always handle the heavy stuff

Issei: see now you're thinking but if you feel tired please just take a seat and rest every now and again
