Chapter 168: The deal with the beautiful witch

There were four people in the living room.

Eiji sat on one of the sofas with Grayfia standing behind him. In front of them, there was a woman whose features were as Grayfia had said before.

The woman was dressed like a witch with a pointed hat. She also had long blonde hair, sapphire blue eyes, fair skin, and a very curvaceous figure. Although the two twin peaks were somewhat hidden under the witch's robes, Eiji's eyes had no trouble seeing their true size.

?{Host, how big? By the way please don't use your power to see through women's clothes.}

Miss System reminded her host, with Anos' character card integration level now reaching 96%. If the host wanted, his eyes could see through time and space, seeing through several pieces of women's clothing was certainly no exception.

'It's an F-cup, bigger than Rias and slightly smaller than Akeno. Don't get me wrong, I didn't see too much. I only saw through her thick witch's robes.'

Eiji certainly recognized who the woman was from the original work, even the person now sitting beside her as well...

A dark-haired young man whose face was somewhat similar to Akeno's. Unlike the blonde woman who was staring at him curiously, the boy was staring at him with calm, caution, and a hint of dislike when he first saw him. He also looked at Grayfia who was standing behind him in confusion.

[Seriously? How many possessed protagonists are there in this world? Well actually that just makes things easier. It's not the real one after all.]

???

The blonde woman looked even more confused. She looked at Eiji and said politely. "Thank you for receiving us. Please allow me to introduce myself, I am Lavinia Reni, Grauzauberer's witch and Grigori's agent."

Lavinia then looked at the young man sitting beside her.

The young man understood and said, "I'm Tobio Ikusuke, I'm also from Grigori. I'm currently only accompanying Reni, so please ignore me."

Tobio did not reveal his other identity as the leader of a certain dog pack, he didn't think he needed to and his impression of the silver-haired boy sitting in front of him was also somehow not very good.

His decision to follow Lavinia to come here was not wrong, fortunately he did not let Lavinia come here alone!

Lavinia didn't know what Tobio was thinking, she felt that the young man's attitude was wrong lately and not like usual. But putting that aside, she looked at Eiji and Grayfia with an apologetic smile because Tobio was a bit impolite.

"So you guys were sent by Azazel to come to me?" Eiji ignored Tobio, he just looked at Lavinia with a smile on his handsome face.

"Yes may I call you, Eiji-san?"

"Sure, I'll call you Reni. That sounds cute."

"Uh... That..."

"What's wrong? Do you not like the way I call you? Then..."

"No Eiji-san, it's fine." Although Lavinia was a little bothered that Eiji called her too closely when they first met. Given her mission and purpose for coming here, she should not be bothered just because of this small matter.

After all it was just a name, it was just that the people who called her Reni so far were only those closest to her such as her friends in Slash Dog and Tobio who was sitting beside her.

While Eiji was...

Well... He was rather shameless. Is this Eiji Seiya? The boy whose inner voice she often heard? When she first saw him, Lavinia had to admit that the other party was very handsome, even more handsome than Tobio. But that was it, she was not a face-fanatic woman.

Her impression of Eiji right now was neither good nor bad.

By the way the silver-haired woman standing behind Eiji... Lavinia knew it was Grayfia Lucifuge who was once famous as the wife of Sirzechs Lucifer, the strongest devil in the underworld. She was also one of the heroine. But now, just as she had heard from the organization's intelligence and Eiji's inner voice, that woman had actually divorced Sirzechs to become another man's woman.

And that man Eiji was much younger than her!

Lavinia would not comment on Eiji having multiple women because she had known about it for a long time, but Grayfia... Isn't she an old cow that eats younger grass?

Hiss!

For some reason, the air in the living room was a bit cold, Lavinia realized that Grayfia was suddenly looking at her coldly.

She smiled awkwardly, there was no way Grayfia knew what she was thinking. It was just that the woman's instincts were too strong. The other party must have realized she was thinking something rude about her.

Tobio frowned, he did say to ignore him. But seeing that boy named Eiji seemed to be flirting with Lavinia.

He tried to stay calm, he was angry, but he knew he shouldn't be impulsive either because he would look different from usual.

Even so, he cursed Azazel in his heart for telling Lavinia to contact Eiji.

[Interesting. I don't know why Azazel sent Lavinia Reni to come to my house. That woman is one of the heroine in the original work, she a big sister figure to Vali and a powerful witch.]

[Not only Highschool DxD, but she is also actually a heroine in a franchise that is still related to Highschool DxD. Slash/Dog, this is a franchise with the same world, except that the protagonist here is a young man who is now sitting next to Reni.]

[Tobio Ikuse, he is the protagonist of Slash/Dog! Just like Basara, Tobio is also not bad and if I'm not mistaken he is Akeno's distant cousin. He's a typical shounen protagonist who likes to fight and shouldn't be so interested in women. But what do I see now? This Tobio is different from his original work, he seems to be secretly hostile to me just for flirting a little with Reni.]

[I knew it. It must be the possessed protagonist again.]

!!!

Lavinia froze, she wasn't surprised to hear she was one of the heroine, even of two franchises that she herself didn't understand the concept of. But Tobio, is he actually protagonist? However, what made her surprised and worried was the last thing Eiji said.

She also now understood what Eiji had said first in his inner voice earlier.

Then Lavinia remembered that Tobio's usually gentle and polite attitude towards people was also somewhat different lately. Especially after hearing from Azazel that she had to go to Eiji's house to make a transaction, Tobio seemed a little unstable and possessive of her, he even insisted on coming with her to Eiji's house today.

At first she refused, but since Tobio was more pushy than yesterday, she finally agreed to let him come along.

And here they were now.

Lavinia looked at Tobio with a narrowed gaze. Of course, she didn't fully believe what Eiji said either. She even hoped that Eiji's suspicions about Tobio were wrong.

Tobio should at least be the Tobio she first knew. If Tobio was possessed by the soul of a person from another world like a certain protagonist she heard from Eiji's inner voice in the past.

Lavinia wasn't sure what she should do.

"Reni, what's wrong?" Tobio saw Lavinia suddenly looking at him so deeply, he felt happy, but he was also confused.

Lavinia didn't answer, she just shook her head while smiling as usual and looked back at Eiji.

"....?" Tobio.

Eiji looked at Tobio's confusion with a funny look, he looked at Grayfia and said: "Grayfia, it's time to bring tea to our two guests."

"Yes Eiji-sama." Grayfia didn't react much about what she had just heard from Eiji's inner voice, she obediently brought three cups filled with hot tea. She gracefully placed the cups on the table.

"Thank you Grayfia-san."

"Thank you Miss Grayfia."

Lavinia and Tobio naturally thanked her. Grayfia just nodded, she returned to stand behind Eiji and looked at Tobio for a while with a little pity as if looking at a person who would soon die.

Did he see it wrong? Tobio felt he was thinking too much.

"Okay so what did Azazel tell you to come here for?" Eiji asked casually after drinking a bit of his tea.

Lavinia was actually still worried about Tobio, but now she also had to explain to Eiji why they came to his house.

So she pretended to cough and said, "So here goes... Eiji-san, I was actually sent by Azazel-san here to offer you a contract."

"A contract? Is it a magician contract?"

"You know?" Lavinia widened her eyes slightly.

Eiji nodded. "I know. I don't mind making a magician contract with a beautiful witch like Reni. But."

"But?"

Lavinia had often heard people praise her beauty, especially from a man. So she was quite immune and would not blush. It was just that now she was starting to worry for some reason.

She wouldn't be surprised if Eiji refused because she knew someone as strong as Eiji didn't need someone else to be his bodyguard or help him with something. That was the job of a witch contracted by someone.

But to her surprise, Eiji immediately agreed to make a magician contract with her. What made Lavinia worried was what exactly did she have to offer the other party in this contract? After all, the other party was Eiji who she believed that he didn't need any help from a magician like her.

If it wasn't for Azazel urging her to try first, she wouldn't have bothered coming here either.

"What's in it for me? Reni, you should have known a few things about me before coming here. So you should know I don't really need someone to protect me. As for help? Well... How about you being the bodyguard and magic teacher of some of my women? It would be more suitable."

"Become your womans' bodyguard and magic teacher?" Lavinia did not expect Eiji to ask her something like this. His request was actually not bad, it was actually quite an easy thing for her. However, she was a little embarrassed because in this situation she thought a man with many women like Eiji would ask for something excessive.

For example like asking herself to be one of his women? Lavinia was certainly not so stupid, she could also vaguely guess the reason why Azazel was so urgent to dress up beautifully before meeting Eiji. She also knew the conflict Azazel had with Eiji before. After being revived by Eiji, Azazel was still worried that Eiji would do something to her, so she sent herself to please Eiji!

Lavinia honestly felt disappointed in Azazel, but considering the problems Grauzauberer had. Lavinia was not an ungrateful person, she was at least willing to suffer a loss or two for the organization that trained her to become the witch she was now.

Fortunately Eiji was not like she thought, the boy was not that perverted and instead of asking her for anything excessive, he only asked her to be his bodyguard and his womans' magic teacher.

Lavinia's impression of Eiji increased several points at the moment, she even forgot what Eiji did to her younger brother, Vali who was once defeated by him. But considering that it was Vali who provoked Eiji from the story she heard from the boy himself, she couldn't blame Eiji too much for that either.

"Okay I agree!"

"Good, so what does Reni want from me in return?" Eiji asked. After all, magician contracts were reciprocal and equal. If not with money, information, or resources, both parties could also exchange the services they wanted.

"I want..." Lavinia happily explained about the problem that her magician organization called Grauzauberer had.

Eiji understood, apparently it's about that. In the original work this did not happen. But now... Probably because of the butterfly effect and the protagonist of the original work that he had killed. Instead of asking the protagonist group for help, Lavinia came to him for him to help Grauzauberer and Grigori to deal with the Khaos Brigade!

During this time, many magician and fallen angels defected and joined the Khaos Brigade. Those people didn't stay silent either, not sure what their motives were, but those defectors were now often making trouble in the human world.

Grauzauberer and Grigori's manpower was also limited, it was difficult to handle all the problems caused by the Khaos Brigade together. Though the Three Factions had united, angels and devils were also helping to deal with the Khaos Brigade. But the latter was hiding very deeply, even if they wanted to directly exterminate its roots, they couldn't do it because many people from that terrorist organization were scattered.

What Lavinia asked of him only focused on the problem Grauzauberer had. It was about the witches who defected from that organization, that woman wanted him to help her organization deal with them.

"How is it, Eiji-san? Is my request too much?" Lavinia was worried that Eiji would refuse because she knew the boy did not like doing anything troublesome unless it had something to do with the plot of the protagonist or heroine.

Lavinia seemed to forget that she was also the heroine? Eiji could utilize this plot to get her in the future.

So of course Eiji would...

"No, that's not too much. I agree."

Lavinia was very happy to hear Eiji actually agree, she now had no regrets listening to what Azazel said to try first. And the result? Very good!

The process was not long, in just five minutes. Eiji and Lavinia made the magician contract official with some magical documents that required a few drops of each other's blood to be affixed to certain papers.

And that was it.

Eiji and Lavinia were partners.

The two shook hands under the supervision of Tobio who had listened to everything. The protagonist was also relieved that Eiji's request to Lavinia was also not too much. Otherwise, he was ready to use force on Eiji even though he knew the other party didn't seem weak according to the information he had heard.

But so what? Tobio was still very confident.

After all, he...

"Um... Eiji-san, how long are we going to shake hands?"

Tobio looked at Eiji who was still holding Lavinia's soft hand. A slightly displeased expression, after all it had been more than a minute since the boy had held Lavinia's hand!

Lavinia could certainly insist on removing her hand from Eiji's, but she was worried that her attitude would be too rude to the person who had just made a contract with her. And actually, Eiji's hand wasn't bad either. This was the first time she had held a man's hand for so long. She could feel how strong and reliable that big hand was which made her feel an electric shock in her body.

It might just be her hallucination, but she felt very comfortable.

"Ah, sorry. I just thought of something earlier." Eiji let go of Lavinia's hand.

Lavinia sighed, she looked at Eiji kindly and said: "Then Tobi and I will leave now. As for our agreement, I'll contact you again later."

"Huh?" Eiji made a puzzled sound as if he was confused and didn't understand.

"....Did I say the wrong thing, Eiji-san? Are you in such a hurry?" Lavinia was also confused.

Eiji shook his head. "I'm not in a hurry. It's just that you said you were going... Leave aside teaching as a magic teacher, but as the bodyguard of my womans..."

"It makes sense that Reni should stay close to my womans, right? So it would be good for you to stay in my house since those women also live here."

Before Lavinia could say anything, Tobio stepped forward and stood in front of Eiji with a cold stare.

"No, Reni can't live in your house. Eiji, I hope you don't insist on this. If not..."
