The Esper Devil ( Esper OC X Highschool DxD )

Chapter 17 - First visit

Part 1

A few days have passed since I had my conversation with Rias and Sona-kaichou, not much has happened ever since, I don't hang around with them very much and I prefer to stay with the trio of friends that I met on my second day here.

"Hey Tatseyo, what are you thinking?"

Kanae, the girl of the group, asks while poking my cheek

"Ah, nothing, I was just spacing out"

I answer while continuing to dig on my lunch

But truth is that I'm feeling uneasy, my first days in this town were everything but peaceful, but these last 2 days have passed with nothing happening at all. In my "normal life" as an esper, I had battles on nearly daily basis and by what Rias said I thought it would be the same here too, so this peaceful time is making me feel aprehensive that something might happen at anytime if I drop my guard.

Me and the trio went to the mall yesterday, they helped me around the town quite a bit and I got to know them better, but nothing out of the usual happened, I guess I should be glad I got to spend some time with friends and have some peace for the first time in years, but I can't shake this feeling of uneasiness out of my mind.

"Pay attention dude, here, where do you think we should visit first?"

Koji hands me a map of Kyoto, they've been talking about this trip even though it's still not that close

"I dunno, wouldn't we have to follow the teacher's schedule?"

I called my parents and they gave me permission, so all that's left is going, though I would like to talk to Liliana before, I don't have contact with her or her peerage since the time at the ORC.

"We'll also have time to freely wander around there, so we have to make the most out of it"

Eizo says this.

I shrug

"That's good, I'll go wherever you guys go, so you can decide by yourselves"

"Alright!"

He starts writing something on a block of paper as I look at my watch and see that break time is about to end

"I'll go in the front then"

I say as I get up from my seat

"Just wait a second... done!"

He says closing the block

"Let's go together"

The four of us make our way back to classroom

When we get close to class we see that the door is being blocked by a group of girls surrounding a familar figure... it's Kiba Yuuto

By now I've already got used to his abnormal popularity with the female students, though this can be a hassle sometimes

"Hey, could you move plea..."

"Kyahh, I'm sorry! I didn't saw you!"

The girl immediately panicks at the sound of my voice and steps away while apologising, the other girls do the same, it's like I've pointed a gun at them.

Yes, people still think I'm a deliquent, I believe that regarding popularity I'm just above Issei and the perverted trio. Well, I guess being feared is better than being gross.

The only one who doesn't move is Kiba who looks at us with a refreshing smile

"Hi Tatseyo"

I wave at him
