Girls at Odds / So Generous!
The second shock came from the system's fact that it had withheld his mission rewards. Apart from increasing his favorability with Sona Sitri, he hadn't even received the normal random rewards.
System, you son of a bitch!
But upon closer reflection, the task didn't actually require him to do anything specific.
Maintaining the status quo means doing nothing and simply continuing with the old lifestyle.
If you can complete the task while lying down, then there are naturally no random rewards.
Never mind.
It wouldn't be a bad idea to increase Sona Sitri.
"Good."
Ren nodded.
[Ding! Mission successful, reward being calculated.]
[Sona Sitri's favorability by 50]
"Thank you, Ren."
Sona Sitri breathed a sigh of relief.
"Also, Ren, can you just call me Sona?"
"Okay, Sona, no problem, Sona."
After Ren finished speaking, Sona Sitri subconsciously looked away. When she turned back, she had a faint smile on her face, sweet but not ostentatious, with a hint of shy embarrassment. Her dark eyes behind her thin-rimmed glasses shone gently, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red, carrying a hint of barely perceptible shyness.
Ren frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.
My invitation is still valid; my door is always open to you.
"Ren, do you want me to live in your house like Rias?"
Of course.
"Why?"
"The more beautiful girls in the house, the better!"
"But compared to Rias or Akeno Himejima, I have absolutely no advantage in terms of physique. Not only am I shorter than them, but I'm also inferior in every other aspect."
Sona Sitri shook his head, a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
"It's okay, small ones are cute too."
Ren glanced at it subconsciously.
In fact, considering the average level of High School DxD, Sona Sitri's figure is really nothing special, only slightly better Asia and Koneko.
However, Ren isn't picky about food, Sona Sitri as a bespectacled girl has its own unique charm.
Upon hearing this, Sona Sitri froze for a moment, her usually composed demeanor turning a faint blush to her ears. Her cheeks quickly flushed, and she hurriedly looked away from Ren, her breathing becoming erratic. A wave of shame washed over her, making her want to turn her face away immediately.
Just then, Sona Sitri's phone rang.
After the call connected, a family member's voice came through, saying that she needed to go to the school building to handle some matters.
"Sorry, I have something to do."
"It's nothing, I was just about to leave anyway."
Ren stood up, stretched, and waved to the girl.
"See you later."
"Um..."
Sona Sitri watched Ren's retreating figure until he completely disappeared.
After a long while, her flushed cheeks gradually returned to their normal color. Recalling her agitated state of mind, the girl was still ashamed.
He finally sighed.
"Otherwise, I might as well get a boyfriend too."
As for Rias...
It seems... the Underworld has never had a rule against pursuing the same boy at the same time.
Chapter 402 The Girls' Confrontation
Ren met Rias and the others near the school building.
Schools in Japanese anime all share a rather distinctive characteristic.
That means almost all students wear school uniforms, even the delinquents.
Teachers are usually dressed in suits and ties, making them easily recognizable.
Now that a student from another school has suddenly appeared, not wearing a school uniform or a suit, Ren's presence naturally attracts the attention of many students.
Because it was once an all-girls school, Ren's main focus was on girls from different classes.
The girls passing by instinctively tightened their grip on their backpack straps, then secretly glanced at him, their cheeks slightly flushed, until they were a distance away before whispering and guessing his identity.
Or he might pretend to be in a hurry and then stop and turn back, making the flow of people in the corridor seem to slow down, with everyone's eyes fixed on him.
A mixture of amazement and curiosity mingled, and even a passing teacher couldn't help but take a second look.
Despite being surrounded by onlookers, Ren didn't seem to care about their stares or feel any sense of superiority. However, the feeling of being watched with affection by beautiful girls wherever he went was quite enjoyable.
If he had come here to study in the first place and then changed his personality, he probably would have become a transfer student like Yan Yun.
Rias and her group soon found Ren and invited him to visit the Occult Research Club in the old school building.
After all, Ren' presence here was seriously disrupting the teaching order.
They asked Ren the reason he had come here.
Ren, on the other hand, euphemistically called it "finding the feeling of when I was in school."
Rias, who had taken his words to heart, actually pondered for a few seconds before saying, "If you want to go to school, I can create a school record for you."
Asia and the Koneko's eyes lit up when they heard this, and Akeno Himejima seemed to be thinking about something, then gave Ren a meaningful smile.
Ren frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.
Given Akeno Himejima's personality, she was clearly thinking about something completely unrelated to student conduct guidelines.
After all, in the original work, Akeno Himejima can be considered the number one erotic character.
However, Ren shook his head. "Forget it, what I miss isn't the classes, but the time I spent with my classmates."
If I really let him enroll and have him sit upright in the classroom at a fixed time every day, he wouldn't be able to stand it.
It would be much more interesting to spend that time watching a couple more cheesy videos and slacking off.
Of course, if it's just about letting him interact with female students without having to attend classes, that's a different story.
Rias, upon hearing this, completely failed to expose Ren's true feelings. Ren was good in every way, except that he was too lecherous.
If we really let him in, I wonder how many human girls would be captivated by him.
Then, not long after, the head of student affairs would receive reports from several female students requesting leave of absence. Finally, about a year later, she would inexplicably have several nieces or nephews who were not related to her by blood.
Hiss!
It's probably better not to let him go to school.
"Actually, you've come at the perfect time today. I have something I wanted to tell you."
Rias nodded, then used a small communication spell to say, "Come to the Occult Research Club now."
Not long after.
A familiar figure opened the door to the Occult Research Club and came into view.
"Lady Rias, what brings you here so early?"
The one solemnly demonstrating the dress-lifting ceremony was a blonde girl with a slender waist.
Her dazzling blonde hair, as bright as sunlight, was styled into an exquisite double-spiral ponytail, the curls loose and perky, tied with a red ribbon, and her forehead was framed by neat V-shaped bangs.
Her fair and rosy skin was delicate and smooth, revealing a tender quality unique to a noble young woman.
His deep blue eyes were clear and bright, reflecting several figures in the room.
When she finally saw Ren's figure clearly, her flawless face froze slightly, then she straightened her chest, as if to make herself look even more resolute.
"Ravel Phenex, the turkey's sister?"
As soon as Ren finished speaking, the girl near the door nodded and said in a voice tinged with surprise, "I didn't expect Mr. Ren to remember my name. It's truly an honor!"
Ravel was wearing the school's girls' uniform, a white shirt with a neat bow tie at the collar, and her shapely, fair legs were visible beneath the pleated skirt, making her look as cute as a doll from a story.
"Since you know them, that makes things much easier."
A smile appeared on Rias's face.
"Actually, I only received the news today that Ravel would be here. From today onwards, she will be my dependent and will be attending school here from now on."
"Lord Ren, I look forward to your guidance in the future."
Ravel bowed to Ren once more.
"However, I am not very familiar with life in the human world, so I may need some time to learn. I heard that Rias and the others are currently living in your residence, so if you don't mind, may I come to your house to train together?"
"Sure."
Ren nodded.
Anyway, as long as she's a pretty girl, he has no reason to turn her away.
"And... also, since this is my first time transferring schools, I don't know how to get along with everyone. Plus, I'm a pure-blooded demon, so I don't know what topics to talk about with humans..."
At this point, Ravel looked embarrassed, and her cheeks began to flush.
"So I was thinking that having many people around in daily life might actually be helpful for spiritual practice."
"May I speak with Lord Ren?"
Just as Ren was about to agree, the Koneko beside him frowned and pouted, looking rather unhappy.
"What a useless Turkey Princess."
Although she spoke very softly, it instantly made veins bulge at Ravel's temples, and then she spoke in disbelief in a trembling voice.
"What... what did you just say?!"
"It's no use."
The Koneko answered immediately.
"You! You! How dare you speak to the Phenex family's daughter like that!"
"It's because you're still saying things like that that you're acting so useless! I thought you'd made a huge decision to come to the human world, but you still need Ren' help. You're such an naive turkey princess."
Pfft!
Suddenly, a string snapped in Ravel's body, releasing a red aura that caused her golden curly hair to dance wildly.
The Koneko glared back without hesitation.
"Ugh! I... I won't trouble Ren! You, you cat demon!"
"Turkey."
"Um... let's not argue. If there are any problems, Miss Ravel can come and ask me. And the Koneko too, I'll do my best to help you too."
Asia looked flustered, but even so, she stepped between the two to smooth things over.
Ren chuckled softly.
The days ahead are unlikely to be peaceful.
Chapter 403 So Generous!
That being said, Ravel still... or rather, she moved into Ren' house with a strong desire to do so.
Because Rias and the others need to go to school, the Fallen Angels prepare all three meals a day on weekdays, while they take turns on holidays.
However, apart from Ren, Koneko, Xenovia, Irina, and Rossweisse are only responsible for eating, Lavinia, Rias, Akeno Himejima, Asia take turns cooking during the holidays.
"Koneko Cat, you don't look too well."
