Chapter 253: Chapter 243 Believe!

After finishing physical training class with Sairaorg, I went to check on the others.

First up: Saji.

”Got it? Humans and half-humans have these special powers called Sacred Gears, different from devils.”

He was teaching kids about Sacred Gears in the corner of the field, manifesting his black serpent multiple times on his right arm.

Next, a Baal clan member—Revan Crocell, magic swordsman and Gear user—took over. Saji’s role: live demo.

Mission done, Saji approached. ”Good work.”

”You too. Teaching basics?”

”Yeah.”

We chatted about our classes and the kids’ reactions as we headed inside. Saji looked happy.

Gazing proudly at the school, he murmured, ”Hey, Hyoudou...”

”Yeah?”

”The kids called me ’sensei.’ Me, ’sensei.’ And I’m still nothing special.”

He blushed but beamed. His dream: teach at a Rating Game school. He even plans to get certified.

”Hyoudou, working here reconfirmed it. I will become a teacher. Gotta hit mid-class first, but I’ll do it.”

”That’s the spirit. You’ll breeze through mid-class. You got this.”

I clapped his back; he scratched his cheek, embarrassed.

Ahead, a crowd: Asia’s church trio.

”Golden Dragon! Golden Dragon!”

Kids swarmed them.

”Sure,” Asia smiled, chanting her summon.

A golden magic circle birthed the Golden Dragon King.

The massive dragon amped the excitement.

”Fafnir, play with the kids?” Asia asked.

”Fine. But I lack PP—Panty Points.”

The perv’s ”energy” source: Asia’s panty essence. Low stock saps his power.

Ugh, obliterate him!

”P-Panties... Got it,” Asia flushed, nodding.

In front of the kids!?

She pulled panties from her pouch and fed him!

Fafnir chomped them.

Kids burst out laughing.

”He’s eating panties!”

”Panty Dragon!”

A new dragon born: after Boob Dragon, Panty Dragon!

”...Lately, I’ve been so tired,” Asia collapsed.

Xenovia caught her—eyes dead.

”Asia! You’re doing great!” Xenovia yelled.

”Yeah! A panty-loving dragon’s perfect for experiential learning!” Irina added.

She’s sacrificing for the kids!

I’ll spoil her later!

Beside my tears: ”Vritra always says Fafnir’s weird.”

Inside, a classroom buzzed—kids spilling into the hall, parents watching.

”Magic class,” Saji explained. ”Super popular, tied with Rating Games. We upped sessions and staff.”

Magic draws kids and adults.

Peeking through: Rossweisse surrounded.

”Rossweisse-sensei!”

”Look, fire!”

Miu assisted. Kids cast basic spells—fireballs flying.

”Don’t aim at people,” Miu smiled warmly.

One boy strained alone, thrusting his hand, eyes teary—no luck.

I recognized him: Rilencus, cried missing the Boob Dragon event.

He’s here too.

A presence behind: Gendul.

”You’re here.”

”Yes, just arrived. You taught too?”

”Basics, but kids tried hard.”

She smiled, nodding. Rossweisse approached.

”G-Grandma...?”

”Promised to guest lecture. Good break before tomorrow’s gathering.”

The mage assembly.

Green aura: tiny fairies appeared, flitting to the podium.

Gendul petted one. Instant attention.

”Do you know how magic began?” she asked gently.

A kid raised hand: ”Divination and spells!”

”Right. Magic born from wishes: curiosity, hopes, helping others.”

Everyone hung on her words.

”Modern magic’s complex. But remember: every spell helps someone. No magic’s meaningless.”

Her loving smile.

”No meaningless magic,” Miu whispered beside me.

I nodded. Rossweisse smiled faintly.

”Something shifted in her,” Ignis materialized.

Hope this helps Rossweisse find answers.

Lecture continued; kids and adults nodded eagerly.

Ignis: ”...Maybe I’ll teach.”

”What?”

”Ignis-sensei’s Sex Ed for Kids. Beginner: deep kissing.”

”Saji?”

”Rejected! You’re the tsukkomi!”

”Me!?”

”Advanced—”

Late night.

Post-dinner with Gremory, Sitri, lecturers—schedules set—free time.

We stayed in on-site dorms: well-equipped, great amenities, communal baths.

Alone in men’s bath: ”Phew... Done.”

Post-class support was tough. Teaching kids: tricky, brain-draining.

But their eagerness motivates.

Rewarding work.

I’ll help when I can. Everyone agreed.

(No Ignis sex ed.)

Irrelevant for Rating Games!

Door opened—not Kiba, Casper, or Saji.

”...Issei-kun?”

Rossweisse!?

W-Wait!?

Women’s bath’s in women’s dorm!

She entered the men’s!

Sleek yet busty! Toned legs!

Mystical body—Valkyrie, demigod.

Wanna stare forever!

”Uh... This is men’s. Women’s in your dorm...”

”Girls’ hot water broke. Told to use here. Heard it’s empty...”

Ah. Others coming?

Thanks, liar—jackpot!

But strict Rossweisse might leave—

She washed!

”...No time. Quick soak. Don’t stare?”

She showered, blushing.

In she went, away from me.

”Underworld baths aren’t bad.”

”Y-Yeah.”

First time alone with her—nerve-wracking.

”Magic class boomed.”

”Yes. Short-staffed, no breaks.”

”Kids loved it.”

”One couldn’t cast basics—worried me.”

Rilencus.

They tried, but no dice.

...

Awkward silence. Like first mixed bath with Alice.

Need topic!

”Question?”

”Yes?”

”Your paper. Why 666?”

”...Trihexa’s legend-only, undiscovered. But Great Red exists. Wanted to know what it is. Tried 666/616.”

Azazel said: debated existence/location.

She苦笑: ”No answers. But maybe my unsolved equations hold what they want.”

Asked Ophis casually—shook head.

Old Maou/Hero’d exploit if she knew. Rizevim found via Grail dive.

”...Issei-kun. If they use me... kill me?”

”...Huh?”

”Better dead than harm friends/world...”

Sad eyes, firm resolve.

I approached: ”Serious?”

”Yes. Rather than—”

”Bullshit.”

Low, angry.

She looked up, confused.

”Don’t say die lightly. Next time, I’m pissed.”

”Not lightly! If Eugrid captures—”

”I’ll take you back. No using.”

”Too convenient...”

”Listen!”

Grabbed shoulders: ”Won’t let them take you! I’ll crush Eugrid! No using! I’ll protect you—promise! Don’t say die! I won’t let you!”

Raged, then breathed.

Smiled: ”Told Gendul: I protect what I decide. You too. I’m a hero, y’know?”

”And not alone. Friends. ’Burden’? That’s what friends do. World? We’ll fix it! Believe in me, us!”

”Again: No taking, no using. Don’t die. Everyone’d cry.”

Gremory’s family-oriented—Rias’d blame herself.

”Don’t wanna see friends die.”

”...Issei-kun...”

”Yeah?”

”...Let go? Embarrassing...”

Realized: hugging her!

Released, backed off—sorry!

She’s red too!

”...First time you called me Rossweisse.”

”S-Sorry...”

”No... At school, teacher-student, but you’re older...”

Yeah, but positions...

Rias/Akeno: casual, no honorifics—they spoil me.

She exhaled: ”Thanks. Feel better.”

Door opened.

”Girls’ bath breaking? Lucky—backrub Issei-kun. Clothes in locker.”

Rias/Akeno led—all girls!

Bouncing oppai!

Paradise!

”Rossweisse? You two alone!?” Miu said.

”!?”

”R-Rossweisse!? Mixed bath with Issei!?”

”R-Rias!? No, coincidence—kya!”

Slipped rising—into me!

”Nwo!?”

”Hyah!? Issei-kun! Where!?”

”Accident! Force majeure!”

”There... Ah... Nn... Nooo...!”

Tumbled in tub!

Everyone: ”Me too!”

Splash—all in!

Bath chaos over.

Room: relax.

”Good work. Comfy?”

”Yeah, Miu’s thighs perfect.”

Knee pillow!

Soft, bouncy. Her smile heals.

Head pats bliss.

”Usually you spoil me. Nice you do too.”

Happy. Nuzzle thighs.

”Yahn. Pervert Onii-chan.”

Cute reaction.

Sibling time essential.

Wanna stay healed till sleep.

”...That day—secret?”

Mom called; she sobbed back—happy tears.

Asked them—no dice.

”Still secret. Mom said.”

”Teases me.”

”Her call. Takes time.”

Time...?

What’s Mom doing?

”Little longer. You’ll be shocked.”
