Chapter 183 Yuuto’s Secret
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Feeling a bone-chilling cold, the expression on the face of Yuuto changed. Instinctively, he took a large step back, putting distance between himself and Aki.
After realizing what he had done, his tense body relaxed slightly, but his expression remained nervous.
”Aki…-kun, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it like that…”
Yuuto did not want Aki to discover the secret of his body, but he had not expected his words to cause such a strong reaction from Aki.
Not knowing the reason, there was no way to begin an explanation. After Yuuto instinctively apologized, he was at a loss for words for a moment.
Rias and the others were also startled by Aki’s sudden outburst. They did not understand why Aki had suddenly become so angry.
No, it was no longer just anger. The killing intent brewing within him had not yet fully formed, but if things continued, there was no telling what might happen.
It was only because it was Yuuto standing before him; they believed that if it had been anyone else, Aki would have already moved in to kill.
Except for Aki himself, Rias, who had always been observing Aki, could be said to be the person who understood him best.
She withdrew her gaze from Aki and turned toward Yuuto, who had triggered the incident. When she saw that flicker of golden hair, something seemed to surface in her mind, but she could not quite put her finger on it.
Watching the grave expressions of everyone, Aki slowly calmed his agitated emotions. He knew it was very likely he was overthinking things, but when it came to matters involving this aspect, he could not manage himself very well.
”Kiba, I hope you can give me an explanation.”
For a long time, Aki had felt that Yuuto was strange, but out of consideration for the fact that they were all companions, and because Yuuto was a good person, he had intentionally ignored it.
But today, he had to get to the bottom of Yuuto’s secret, otherwise, he would be unable to rest easy and do anything else.
Yuuto stared fixedly at Aki, then lowered his head, saying nothing.
Seeing the other party in this state, Aki irritably scratched his head and cast his gaze toward Rias.
”Buchou, if Kiba is unwilling to say it, then you tell me.”
Rias looked at Yuuto, feeling somewhat troubled: “Aki-chan, Yuto has his own difficulties…”
She paused, then added pointedly: “Just like how you suddenly became so angry, some things are indeed hard to say.”
Aki was left speechless. Rias was using his own words to block him.
Yuuto had secrets, but he had quite a few of his own, and this abrupt outburst was caused by that.
”Tsk…”
Aki turned his head away in frustration. Seeing Himejima Akeno, Amano Yuuma (Raynare), and others looking at him with strange expressions, he knew that he was indeed in the wrong this time.
After thinking for a moment, he finally made a decision.
”Buchou, if I reveal the reason, will Kiba also confess?”
”Yuto, is that alright? After all, everyone is a partner; continuing to keep it hidden is not a solution.”
Rias said gently to Yuuto. The usually bright and cheerful school prince nodded pitifully, looking like a helpless little girl.
Aki felt a chill from the sudden thought that had appeared in his head. He quickly shook his head to cast the strange idea out of his mind.
”Alright, then I will say it…”
Aki could not bring himself to reveal the entire Bitter Parent Template, so he swapped it for a different explanation.
”You all know that my ability can improve the strength of both parties through SEX, and I naturally possess a temperament that attracts women, especially older women…”
After waiting for Rias and the others to nod, he continued.
”Conversely, many men feel a sense of malice the first time they see me. They want to torment me and take away the women who have feelings for me. When I was still an ordinary person, I was once on the verge of death because of this reason.”
This was the first time everyone had heard about Aki’s time as an ordinary person. Because he had ranked up so quickly, they had always assumed Aki had been in the supernatural world for a long time.
Now that Aki had said this, they realized that a year ago, Aki was just an ordinary, weak, submissive boy.
Well, he was, at most, a bit better looking.
Neon’s monitoring was also quite sparse, and the investigation Rias conducted later only revealed what was recorded in his file; this was the first time she had heard of such things.
At this moment, she finally remembered what had flashed through her mind earlier.
”Aki-chan, is it because Yuto is male, has blonde hair, and because of those previous words, you thought he was being affected and wanted to do you harm?”
Aki nodded blankly. Taking advantage of his women and stealing his partners was doing him harm, so Rias was not wrong in saying that.
”Although that influence has a weaker effect on those with stronger power, it exists nonetheless, and I don’t know if that effect will strengthen as my own power increases.”
Regarding the invisible aura of the Bitter Parent Template, it was not that Aki had not thought about trying to understand it, but there was truly no way to do so.
He could not just grab any woman and ask how she felt about him, or grab any man and ask if he wanted to steal his woman…
Even if he did that, the answers he received would not necessarily be their true inner thoughts.
Humans… no, whether it be humans, Devils, angels, or Fallen Angels, as long as they were intelligent beings, it was basically impossible for them to tell the absolute truth.
If he wanted to use Mental magic to force them to reveal their inner thoughts, he could only use people with much lower power than himself for experiments, which would be of no use in studying whether the aura’s effects were strengthening along with his own power.
Himejima Akeno and the others looked at each other. Even Yuuto looked at Aki with a strange expression, though his face was not as gloomy as before.
”Pfft…”
It was unclear who started it, but the women began to stifle giggles behind their small hands one after another. Even Yuuto could not help but turn his head away quietly, his shoulders trembling.
Aki was confused at first, and then became shamed and angry.
He put on a serious face: “Be serious, we are talking about important business. Besides, among the people who want to do me harm, the guys with yellow hair are the most numerous.”
After hearing his words, the women did not stop laughing; instead, they laughed even more happily.
The crisp, pleasant laughter of young girls echoed continuously in the activity room. Aki maintained his tense expression for a while, but eventually gave up.
He sighed helplessly, “Although I don’t know what you are laughing at, I suppose I must have wronged Kiba. If you’ve laughed enough, remember to explain it to me.”
”Hahaha…”
Once these words were spoken, the girls laughed even more unscrupulously. Among them, Mittelt laughed the most happily; she even spread her pitch-black Wings, and while laughing, she floated in the air, clutching her stomach and rolling around.
It was not until Koneko returned with a well-fed Asia and curiously asked what had happened that the women finally stopped laughing and began to discuss the serious matter.
Mittelt leaned over to the White-haired loli’s ear and started gossiping. Aki rolled his eyes and secretly made a mental note of it.
During the next Dual Cultivation, he would definitely make sure to get his revenge.
After hearing the sequence of events, even the emotionless Koneko could not help but lift the corners of her mouth slightly. She walked up to Aki with a mature demeanor and patted him on the back with her small, white, slender hand.
Well, she had originally intended to pat his shoulder, but after discovering she couldn’t reach it even on tiptoe, she changed it to patting his back.
”Aki-chan, you can rest assured. Yuto is the safest male in this world.”
The White-haired loli specifically emphasized her tone and repeated: “The safest male!”
Aki irritably messed up her soft, silver-white short hair into a bird’s nest. While enduring her small fists pounding on his stomach, a bold guess appeared in his mind.
Thinking of Yuuto’s various unreasonable behaviors, combined with the strange attitude of Rias and the others, as well as the White-haired loli deliberately saying that, even if it was unbelievable, he could only guess in this direction.
Aki grasped the White-haired loli’s powerful little fists and pulled her into his arms like a small kitten.
Koneko initially resisted, but when Aki skillfully began to stroke the top of her head and groom her hair, the loli gradually calmed down, closing her eyes happily like a real kitten in her Master’s arms.
”Buchou…”
Aki asked while stroking the incredibly cute cat-yokai loli: “Could it be that Kiba is not a girl? And is currently in a state of Disguise?”
Rias knew about some of Shinomura Yuki’s affairs, and combined with the White-haired loli’s words, it was natural for Aki to guess in this direction.
She placed her fist in front of her mouth and coughed twice. Only when the laughter in the room had completely subsided did she speak to Aki: “What you said is correct, but also incorrect.”
Aki: [?_??]
Rias did not deliberately play the riddle-maker, and since she had promised Aki, she continued: “Yuto is a girl, but her current appearance is not a Disguise. It is just that before a certain matter is resolved, she can only use this body.”
”Buchou, let me explain the rest myself…”
Yuuto walked slowly to the front of Aki and said proactively: “Everyone else in the club actually knows about this matter, except for you…”
”Except for you, I did not want you to know.”
Aki: ? ? ?
