There is something that is developing inside of you. What is it?

Enjoy.

~~~~~

You are at the desk in a chair reading Zeo's book and it is now at a point where it is so interesting that you feel that you do not have to take notes. You have confidence and not overthinking this as you normally would. Feeling really good and on the edge of your seat as everything is going into motion. It goes into everything going on in Zeo's life as a whole. Yes there was the war which he did not go into as much as what you thought of. Though you would question this later on. 

Going through half the amount of pages in one segment outside of sipping water and one trip each to the bathroom and Rias, this was coming as a reality setting into you. Zeoticus was going over what was going through when he found out that his wife was pregnant. Regardless of the moral support she was given he was giving everything he had in his body to be there. Telling her everything, breakfast in bed, and even shaving her legs during her bathing. 

Now during the engagement, the wedding, the pregnancies, and even now I still get asked for certain opportunities with other bachelors. The only time I say that I am too old for this is when they ask. Simply because I am mature enough. Do you know why I do not have multiple wives? Any clue why I haven't been to the cat house since I was a boy? Why? Because I knew I was going to one day have children. Mind you I know men particularly Devils enjoy to indulge themselves in luxury and royalties. Money, wine, women, and everything else their heart good and bad can and will desire. But there was one goal I had in mind. That would be that my son was going to have morals. Treat every woman with respect and find himself a woman that would love him equally. As well as a daughter that would have find a man that would let her be the person she wants and needs to be. Looking back all of those years which seems like ages my goals seemed a tall order. Now a realize that I have succeeded decades later. 

I see. It was time to carry onward. Though this seemed the most important.

A turn to the next page was blank. Another turn of the page and left and right sides blank. An awful sight indeed as you thought this couldn't end just like that. Though something was fishy. Going through all of it and it seemed like one of those movie scenes that have the writing removed for whatever the reason may be. Having to believe it's there, being the chosen one, or even it just being a concept. You put things into action.

Taking out your phone you see that it is 8:33 on a weeknight. It's a stretch but you call your father-in-law.

< Evening. >

< Zeo it's (FN). >

< Anything I can do for you? >

< If I can have a word Sir. Five maybe ten minutes of your time. >

The phone seemed to hang up. Before the works of what the hell could be said a white shining light came from in front of the desk. This would be a summoning circle. Wow. Turns out when you say the word and it seems important he's in your favor.

"What can I do for you?" He asked with a smile.

"I read until the pages ran out. I'm sure I'm 30 pages away. But it is all white. And I wanted to comment on what was going on during that part." You get out of the office chair. 

"This about my marriage? My kids?"

"Yes it is dammit! I know I gave you my word before and I know you expected a book report. I'll write it. That won't be a problem. But I want to reassure you that I'm here. One day I will take over as co-head of this House. Your daughter deserves a man and you deserve a son-in-law that will fight and lead. All I ask is when I screw up or see writing on the wall you tell me."

Zeoticus shook his head. "About the book. Any questions?"

"Yes. Where is the rest?"

This is when Zeo started laughing. Closed his eyes and laughed high and mighty. Which was rare for him even though he was a man with such power. "It worked."

"I'm confused..."

"I wrote that book years ago because I knew a boy for my daughter would come along. No idea it was you bare in mind, but I knew you would ask questions. If you didn't then I think you may have much more to learn. Those pages are blank for a reason. Simple because it means my story isn't done yet. Nor will it be for sometime. And that is the only book made. Which is why it was in my desk in the library. I know you won't disappoint. You pass."

This was a shocker to you. Those assignments and everything that lead to this. "I pass?"

"Congratulations (FN). You literally earned everyone's complete faith. Despite everything that you may have thought at one point. Then you learned. I am proud."

A little shaken and this sense of pride grows within you. "Thank you Zeo. So what is next?"

He chuckled. "I shouldn't have to say it. Make sure you've eaten, grab a bath, and make sure you get to bed."

"And I'll check on Rias."

"Sounds like a plan. You see Son, keep that spark going. If you're a statue then she's the glue."

"That she is. Without the glue I turn to ash."

"You can say the same for me too. Which is why I will be attending to her right now." He created a summoning circle for him to return. "I bid you a farewell and goodnight."

"Goodnight Zeo, I'll continue onward."

He nodded. "That's as I expected coming from you. Until then." Zeoticus vanished as you nod and exit. Time to go to the bedroom to see how your wife is doing. 

As you enter the apartment everything is clean and nearly spotless. Grayfia isn't here so assuming she was here prior to clean and aid. Then you go into the bedroom where Rias has her glasses on and is into a book. You open the door and your wife was not expecting you.

"Love?" She flinched.

"Good evening Rias. How are you?"

"I'm fine. Shouldn't you be working?" She asked not knowing about anything going on.

"Your father said I passed as I completed his book. So I'm finished. No more late nights. Focus on pacts and you again and nothing else. Outside homework but you know what I mean." You smile and approach her side of the bed.

"So what's next?" She pondered.

"You want to take a bath?"

"That's random. So sudden."

"I'm getting in so I'm asking you."

"More than happy. And you can rub my feet." She chimed.

"Fine. But you're sharing that ice cream woman." You demand.

"I suppose."

"C'mon Rias let's go. More time snuggling up before bed in the meantime. The night is ours."

~~~~~

Back to normal. But for how long? Rias is not going to be pregnant forever.
