Start By Becoming A Mangaka

Chapter 978: Did you do something?

Yuuki had arrived in the occult research clubroom. It wasn't his first time to be here since he had been here before. He was together with both Akeno and Koneko who decided to skip the class since he was here.

They needed to wait for the other member of the occult research club to finish the class before they started to discuss something.

Yuuki had created a grilling on the table to grill the Nessie's meat since he needed to wait quite a long time before the discussion was starting.

Koneko had drooled and couldn't wait to eat the meat.

"It might be bad, but this experience is refreshing," Akeno said.

Yuuki only laughed and shook his head before eating the meat together.

Issei was in his class listening to the teacher who talked about the future. He had become a devil and he had two futures from his life in a human's world and his life as a devil. In the human world, he had decided to enter Kuoh university after he had graduated from high school. For his devil's life, he had decided to become a high-rank devil as soon as possible then became a harem king. He looked at Asia and Irina who was in the same class as him and wondered what he should do to both of them. He was in deep thought, but both of his friends suddenly interrupted with a lot of strange gossips that made him very helpless.

Akeno chewed the Nessi'e meat on her mouth and had to admit that it was very delicious. She thought that because it was delicious that this creature had become a legend since a lot of people had targeted it.

Koneko didn't say anything and all of her attention was focused on consuming the meat in front of her.

Yuuki thought that Koneko wasn't that different from Kuroka. 'Apple doesn't fall far away from the tree, does it?'

"By the way, Yuuki." Akeno looked at Yuuki with a curious expression.

"What's wrong?"

"Did you do something on Sona?" Akeno asked.

"Me? Did something on Sona?" Yuuki felt weird when he heard that question.

"Yeah. She has been asking you before," Akeno said.

"Really? What did she ask you?" Yuuki asked.

"Her expression seemed to be serious when she met me before. I am not sure what she wants from you, but it seems that you have made a lot of trouble for her. Did you really not do anything?" Akeno asked.

Yuuki thought for a while and shook his head. "I didn't do anything. All I did was to have a spar with Sona's group before."

Akeno didn't think that it was the cause of the trouble. "Is there anything else?"

"Hmm... The last time I saw her was when I was asked to give Jeanne to me," Yuuki said.

"Jeanne? I remember you wanting to make her into your maid," Akeno said.

Yuuki nodded and said, "She is working in the Hanging Garden of Babylon now."

Akeno smiled and shook her head. "Ex-terrorist has fallen into a maid, huh?"

"Maids are better than terrorists," Yuuki said.

"So did you do something during that time?" Akeno asked.

"Hmm...." Yuuki tried to remember it again and said, "I am not sure. We have only talked to each other about random things while playing chess."

"Playing chess?" Akeno and Koneko suddenly asked.

"Yeah? Is there something wrong?" Yuuki asked. He felt that there must be something wrong since Koneko stopped eating when he said that he had played chess with Sona before.

"What is the result?" Akeno asked this question calmly.

Koneko chewed the meat on her mouth while looking at Yuuki curiously.

"Isn't it obvious?" Yuuki chewed the meat on his mouth then ate it directly. He smiled confidently and said, "I won."

"......"

Akeno and Koneko had a strange expression on their faces when they heard the result.

"What's wrong?" Yuuki was confused when he saw their expression. "Did I do something wrong?"

"....."

Akeno and Koneko looked at each other and weren't sure what to say.

"Akeno-san," Koneko said.

Akeno nodded and said, "You might know it, but Sona is very famous in the underworld for some reason."

"Well... Isn't that obvious since Sona is Serafall's little sister and her peerage's strength is very also very strong compared to her peers," Yuuki said strangely.

"That's true, but she is also famous for different reasons," Akeno said.

"What reason?"

"If someone is able to defeat her in a chess match then she is going to promise to marry the winner of this match," Akeno said with a charming smile.

"....." Yuuki twitched his lips when he heard it. "Is this a joke?" He felt that it was quite dumb to marry someone who only won the chess match.

"No. It's not a joke. In the past, Sona has defeated her fiancee with a chess match and after that time she has announced that she is only going to marry someone who can win against her in a chess match," Akeno said.

Yuuki was more speechless when he heard it.

"What are you going to do?" Koneko asked.

Yuuki shook his head and said, "Nothing."

"Nothing?" Yuuki's answer surprised them.

"I never promised to marry her," Yuuki said. He looked at their reaction and seemed that their reaction was a bit exaggerated. "Have I said something wrong?"

"Knowing you, I thought that you would be more than happy to marry Sona," Akeno said.

"If she is willing then I don't mind, but I am not sure whether she loves me or not and marriage is a very heavy responsibility. Sona was a bit too careless in deciding the outcome of her partner's use of a chess match," Yuuki said.

"Then what should she do to decide her marriage partner?" Akeno asked curiously.

Yuuki wrapped his hand around Akeno's waist and said, "Marriage is simple, but also complex. How do you decide that you're ready to marry a partner? You need to ask your own heart whether you want to stay with your partner forever and have the children from your partner."

"Have you ever found someone like that?" Akeno asked, looking at him with an intuitive gaze.

"Yes. The girl in front of me, right now. I feel like I should bring her back to my home to meet my father letting him know that she is going to become his daughter-in-law," Yuuki said with a burning desire.

Akeno blushed and couldn't help but kiss him. "I love you."

"I love you too."

Koneko who was by their side couldn't handle it anymore since they were too greasy and it also made her jealous. She hoped for someone to enter the clubroom as soon as possible or else this place would become their battlefield. She started to pray and she was in luck when the door opened.

"Why is there a smell of grilled meat?"

"Why the heck are you grilling meat in the clubroom!"

Akeno sighed and whispered, "Let's continue back later."

"Sure. I can't wait for it."
