After making their mind the five of them made their way to where Mayumi promised to meet miyuki
"There she is " exclaimed Rias after seeing Mayumi along with a brown haired young man
"It's good to see you again senpai " said Rias after getting closer to their field of vision
" Ah Rias-san , Likewise it is good to see you , you all as well " Mayumi smiled at the five of them
"Right let me introduce to you our school council vice-president"
" My name is Hattori Gyoubo , Class 3-A and the vice president , feel free to call me as you like "
Hattori introduced himself earning nods from everyone
"Then as everyone is introduced , i assume you would be walking to your brother right miyuki-san?"
"Yes president we intended to have lunch as a group after all "
"I see , then let us talk as we walk "
As she said that the group of seven started walking
...
...
After a few minutes pass by Rias spots Tatsuya sitting along with a Mizuki and Erika and another student
"There they are" she exclaims
Tatsuya noticing their presence smiles and addresses Miyuki
" Miyuki is your business with the student council done ?"
" Ah not yet Onii-sama but-"
"No , it's fine Miyuki today we are satisfied with introductions for today , tomorrow would be a good day to continue our conversation " Mayumi smiled at all of them and said
"But president" exclaims Hanzo but he was utterly ignored as Mayumi as she walked away and said
"We'll see you tomorrow , Miyuki-san " Said Mayumi while walking away
"Yes thank you president"
Miyuki bowed to the president as she walked away
Hattori gritted his teeth but as just as he was about to turn and glare at the other he was met with Ayato's gaze
"You should get going Vice-pres" said Ayato with his usual disinterested expression
Hattori was intimated by the pressure he was giving but he just clinched his fists turned away and started going after Mayumi
"WOW " exclaimed Erica after Hattori left prompting Ayato to look at her but when he turned around he saw that everybody was looking at him so he asked
"What?"
Making Rias sigh and say " i told you before , take it easy on the intimidation you look like a bona fide assassin when you glare at someone and that cold expression of yours doesn't help"
" But it was cool " says Erika smirking
" At least i don't act like a child " retorted Ayato
""Who's a child "" snarled both Erika and Rias making the others smile
"We should sit down everyone " says miyuki
After everyone sat down they started introducing themselves to those who don't know each other until it reached the last unkown student
"My name is Saijou Leonhard , Class 1-E you can all call me Leo, i have to say it is quite surprising to see a group like this "
"What do you mean ?"Asked Rias
" I meant course 1 students not having that superiour expression and distancing themselves from course 2 students , no offense but course 1 students aren't usually pleasant folks" he replies leaving every course 1 students present smile awkwardly and Ayato to simply sigh
"What a drag" he murmured unnoticed by most of them except tatsuya and Rias who laughed silently
The conversation carried on , a friendly atmosphere between all of them until they had to go back to classes and eventually the school came to an end for the day with Ayato and Tatsuya each waiting for their respective partners
"You're going to make this a habit aren't you " sighed a Rias who just came out with Miyuki in tow and others behind her
" If i was sure you weren't going to cause trouble for the others i wouldve already left "
" Can't you just be nice for once " Asked Rias
" You're not exactly making it easy " replied Ayato
" You guys look more like siblings than cousins , you're quite close" commented Honoka
" In what way are we close?" Spat back Rias making the others smile
"Let's just go back " sighed Ayato
After quite a walk back home
Rias and Ayato made it back , each took a shower and were about to take a rest in the living room before...
*RING*
*RING*
"Rias"
"Hmm?"
"It's maya, prepare yourself"
"Understood"
Ayato clicked answer ,resulting in figure of Yotsuba Maya the queen of the night and the demon king of the far east to appear on the screen
""Good evening Toushu-sama""
"Good evening Ayato-san ,Rias-san i hope you're both adjusting well to school life " the head of the Yotsubas smiled
" We are doing well Toushu-sama" Answered Rias
Maya's smile then evaporated as she said
"Report"
"Yes , nothing unusual around the siblings other than that they made friends with a daughter of the Chiba family , a modified magician a "First type"-Burg Folge series , the only daughter of the kitayama family , a girl with the crystal eyes capable of seeing spirits , and lastly a descendant of the elements " reported Ayato
" I see , they made quite a group of friends , one of the two only living results of "First type"-Burg Folge series , someone with the crystal eyes and a descendant of the elements , Tatsuya-san is quite lucky it seems " commented Maya amused
"Also there was about to be a dispute about Miyuki-san spending her time with Tatsuya because he's a course 2 students , it seems the descrimination between course 1 and 2 is more discernible than expected and some of the students seemed to develop a superiority complex due to it " continued Ayato
" I see ,and if i were to ask what do you think of said descrimination Rias-san , ayato-san"
"I believe they are being blinded Toushu-sama , in a fight between magicians it doesn't matter how fast do you pull the trigger or how fast do you activate your magic , there are countless factors to decide the outcome "Answered Rias
" And you Ayato-san "
"I don't have a specific opinion on it Toushu-sama , they are influenced by a system the school designed , it is a system made for these magicians to become soldiers so they are acting within the expected . but if i was a course 2 student with superieur fighting capability than course 1 student i would despise the school just as much as course 2 students do "
"Meaning?"
"Meaning that the system is working as it should be but i believe another category should be installed for students with superior capabilities other than fast activation time for example . CAD calibarating and magical engineering or better yet i believe the acceptance exam should be more accepting toward those with superior fighting capability but lesser activation speed "
" I see ,that is quite a unique way to look at it , well then thank you both for the report keep on monitering and report anything unusual but don't forget to enjoy your school life , highschool is an important period of your life " Says Maya her smile returning
"" As you wish Toushu-sama"" Answered both Ayato and Rias as they bowed
Maya just nodded and cut the line
"Haaah that was stressful" says Rias as she dropped on the couch
Ayato just kept his eyes on the black screen as if deep in thought which made Rias ask
"What's wrong "
"She's insane "
"Well that was already established , she wants revenge on the world after all"
" No that's not it . she may look like she's a psychopath but she's probably the most dangerous person on this planet just in these few instances we talked she analyzed both of us , she realized that i am different and that we are both not afraid of her unlike the rest of the Yotsubas , she also made sure to test our loyalty through this report she already knew everything that happened , she reminds me of someone and that isn't good at all"
...
Rias doesn't answer just keeps thinking
..
..
The Yotsuba Clan
Maya's residence
"What do you think Hayama-san" asked Maya with a smile
" You were right my lady , Ayato-san doesn't seem to carry any semblance of fear toward you , i sensed that Rias-san was a bit intimated but never afraid "
"Hmm i wonder why, have i lost my charm Hayama-san " commented Maya amused
Although her smile was present Hayama could see that the roof the room was turning black like the night but he smiled nonethless and said
"Of course not my lady , you look as young you have ever been "
Making Maya laugh a bit but then she turned serious
"So Hayama-san , any signs of betrayal?"
"None my lady and if there was any they are either trained secretly to hide it from the best but i doubt as they are also monitered, but i noticed something else about Ayato"
"Oh do tell it seems the child is becoming interesting "
"His expression looked like Tatsuya , no if i were to speculate further it looked even worse than Tatsuya , as if all of his emotions were erased "
" Hmm , you think someone has the capabilities to do what my sister did ?"
"I could only speculate my lady but i doubt it really ,Lady Miya was one of a kind on her field"
" I see" she commented with a smile then added
" It seems things will get interesting " she said as she canceled her magic
...
...
" Interesting it will be indeed " whispered Ayato
"What?" asked Rias
" Nothing we should make dinner already , do you want to, or shall i do it?"
" No i leave it to you"
" Sure " replied Ayato
on the dinner table Ayato suddenly suggested
"Rias"
"Yes?"
"Care for a spar ?"
"What's gotten into you now?"
"Nothing it's just there is something i want to try , and i think it may help Tatsuya a bit"
"Is it something that will make me question reality again?"
" I have absolutely no clue "
Rias just stared deeply into his eyes for a few moments then she just sighed
"Fine let's do it after dinner "
Ayato just nodded and the two continued their dinner
Later the two meet up in underground Area of their home which they both recognize as the Built-in training Area in their home
As part of The Yotsuba Clan even though only a branch clan they of course are somewhat offered a basic degree of luxury , this room is part of it
" So what do you want to try"
" I'll show you in a bit , first i want you to try attacking me use everything you have, remember magic of this level won't be able to harm me , so use anything you can think of to try and land a hit on me "
Rias seeing him underestimating her grits her teeth even though she knows they are league apart she won't take this laying down
"I'll show you "
" Do so , but remember only magic using psions , get used to using this world's magic we don't want trouble later"
" I got it " she says
Taking her stance Rias backs down from him and readies her CAD which was by the way similar to a phone while Ayato somehow managed to merge his CAD with his necklace
"Here i come " she says activating her first magic since coming to this world
