High School DxD: Return of the Crimson Dragon Emperor

Chapter 285: Chapter 275: Winter Break Begins!

It’s the last day of the second semester.

Today, the long second semester finally ends.

Well, this year’s second semester felt especially long because we even visited Ast-Earde.

This year’s second semester was long and tumultuous.

After finishing the closing address in the gym and returning to the classroom, we—Matsuda, Motohama, Miyu, and the other girls—were discussing our New Year’s plans until our homeroom teacher returned.

Matsuda sighs.

”So, Issei, you’ll be busy even during the New Year’s holiday, huh?”

”Sorry. It seems like I won’t be free due to club activities and other things. Besides, we’re discussing how to set up the Occult Research Club’s new system. We need to decide it so President Rias and Akeno can feel at ease entrusting it to us, their juniors, right?”

I turn the conversation to Miyu and the girls, seeking their agreement.

Asia, understanding my cue, continues.

”Yes. We second-years need to take the lead, and Irina-san has also officially joined the club.”

Yes, just as Asia said, Irina had officially become a member of the Occult Research Club. Until now, Irina had been trying to establish a rather suspicious-looking club, ostensibly to ”rescue students,” but she never managed to gather any members. With Rias and Akeno leaving the ORC, Irina ended up joining.

Furthermore, if Xenovia wins the student council election, she’ll also be leaving, which was another reason Irina decided to join.

”With the two seniors leaving, and me having been taken care of for so long, plus being a third-year now, I figured it’s time to settle down.”

Irina nods emphatically.

...Well, there’s probably a limit to how many members she could gather for that suspicious club anyway.

”Cute, but weird” —that’s the general perception of Irina among the student body. Considering that, securing new members in the future will likely be difficult.

Motohama asks.

”Have the new president and vice president been decided yet?”

”Not really. President Rias seemed to have already decided, but it’s apparently still a secret for now.”

Hmm, who will be the new president of the Occult Research Club...? I’m curious, but she said it’s a secret.

When will they announce it?

Matsuda turns his gaze to Xenovia.

”I was more surprised by Xenovia-chan running for student council. I mean, the whole school is buzzing about it.”

Xenovia’s candidacy for student council president had, as Matsuda said, spread throughout the school.

She raised her hand immediately after the Auros Academy incident. The school accepted it, and Xenovia officially became a candidate.

Xenovia expresses her determination.

”I plan to finalize the details of my election campaign during winter break. I need to start taking action right after the New Year.”

”Yeah, yeah, I’ll help too. Xenovia-cchi as president sounds super fun.”

Kiryu is also enjoying herself.

She’s likely supporting Xenovia as a friend, but also driven by curiosity about how a Xenovia-led student council would make the school more interesting.

I can’t imagine what kind of school it will become, but I’m sure it will be lively.

”Looks like you guys are still pretty busy, after all. I thought maybe us three guys could have a gentleman’s appreciation session again for old times’ sake.”

”...Or rather, ever since Miyu-chan became your sister, you’ve been all about her.”

”Of course! Miyu is more important!”

””You siscon! Give us that position!””

”Like hell I will, you idiots!”

My Miyu-chan won’t be given to anyone! She’s my sister, and my bride! I will protect this position to the death!

However... for a while, I probably won’t need DVDs, huh? Lately, practice has been more frequent than appreciation.

Ignis’s custom-designed ’break room’ at my agency. I used it with Alice, and it creates an atmosphere far more potent than its appearance suggests.

Thanks to that, it’s being fully utilized... The other day, Rias came for an ”agency inspection” and stayed overnight. The next day, Raynare came, claiming to ”help out,” and stayed overnight. I ended up pushing down Raynare, who was still in her suit.

And the day after that, even Rossweisse visited, initially saying, ”I-I came to see if you were engaging in any impure acts as a teacher!” but eventually she too ended up in the ’break room’... staying overnight.

Naturally, I’ve used it with Miyu as well...

Hmm, Ignis-san’s effect is tremendous! I feel like I’m going to dry up! It’s scary to think all the female members might show up eventually! Though I’d be happy!

By the way, the last time I watched a DVD was... the day Vali visited my house.

A while ago, he suddenly appeared at my house and said this:

”Hyoudou Issei. Azazel sent me. Would you be so kind as to show me some sexually arousing videos?”

I froze, completely taken aback by this utterly unexpected request from the strongest White Dragon Emperor in history.

The cause was Professor Azazel, who apparently told Vali this:

”Listen, Vali. If you want to gain power beyond comprehension, try to get hints from Issei. That guy, with his seemingly idiotic power called the T.O.S., Twin Oppai System, actually gained immense power. Super powerful. After all, even if they were clones, he single-handedly wiped out twenty Devil King-class beings. —You could even call it the power of breasts that can destroy gods. If you want to know about power that isn’t magic, and isn’t dragon power, then it’s about Issei’s life as a fellow Two Heavenly Dragon... no, his sex life? Well, anyway, you should learn from Issei.”

Apparently, Professor Azazel had a distant look in his eyes at the time.

As a result, Vali, ever diligent in his pursuit of power, earnestly came to me.

...Honestly, he’s an idiot.

What kind of nonsensical advice are you giving Vali!? Ignis is the originator of T.O.S.! Ask Ignis!

I don’t know how many times I mentally retorted that.

Unable to refuse Vali, who pressed me with an imposing aura, the two of us—the Two Heavenly Dragons—ended up watching an ecchi DVD.

Before the ”Oh no!” and ”Ah!” moans of the women on screen, Vali, with a deadly serious face, asks me:

”So, what should I be focusing on here? The breasts? The butt?”

And somehow, I ended up explaining it to him, but Vali became incredibly serious, pondering deeply!

What’s more, halfway through, Ignis appeared and started talking even more passionately than me!

”This girl has a good butt, doesn’t she? That line from her waist to her thighs is superb, isn’t it? And her voice is cute too. But you see, Vali-kun, in these situations, you don’t look at individual parts; you feel the girl as a whole, don’t you?”

Vali, hearing that, then says,

”Hmm... I see. I don’t quite understand, but is that how it is?”

and ponders even more deeply!

Ultimately, Ignis made Vali this proposal—

”Hey, Vali-kun. You see, I’m building a new theory of power. It’s called the T.O.S., Twin O-shiri System. This is—”

And then she started another nonsensical explanation!

What the hell is the Twin O-shiri System!? It makes no sense! After breast power, is it butt power!?

And... in the end, Vali,

”I don’t understand, but I grasp that Hyoudou Issei is diligent in this research. It must be the result of hard work. With the theory of an otherworldly goddess added, he gained immense power. There are still many unexplored parts of dragon power.”

He came to that incomprehensible conclusion and left.

Honestly, that day took a lot out of me. Trying to stop the goddess’s rampage...

Anyway, that was the last time I watched an ecchi DVD.

Then, Kiryu, with gleaming eyes, changes the subject.

”More importantly, it’s almost Christmas, isn’t it?”

”Huh? Well, yeah.”

Christmas is just a few days away, but... Kiryu’s eyes...

Kiryu wears a lecherous expression.

”Hyoudou, what kind of present will you be getting this year, I wonder?”

As for Christmas presents, it’s a bit early, but I did get something incredible from Mom. Miyu’s wedding dress... that could be said to be the greatest present ever.

Honestly, Miyu in that wedding dress was so moving... every time I remember it, tears of emotion flow.

The other day, Rias and the others, hearing Irina’s scream, rushed into Mom’s hobby room... and everyone was speechless.

After a moment, frozen with wide eyes, they all screamed again.

When Miyu said it was Mom’s handmade creation, everyone pleaded, ”Please make one for me too!” and Mom got really fired up.

She even said she was going to gather materials again today.

Anyway, putting that aside... regarding Kiryu’s current question, she’s clearly expecting an erotic answer, right? It must be.

That girl, ever since the school trip, she says such on-the-edge things that it makes me nervous. And she seems to occasionally ask Miyu about things too!

However, Kiryu’s gaze is currently directed at the Church Trio.

Xenovia’s eyes are shining brightly.

Asia and Irina are blushing fiercely, looking down.

...That glasses girl must have whispered something.

Xenovia places a hand on my shoulder.

”Indeed, Kiryu told me. Japanese Christmas is not spent with family, but with close men and women, and they make children. Moreover, I heard that children can be bestowed from heaven directly then. Japanese Christmas is a blessed holiday for those who desire children.”

Whoa!? Don’t say such things so brazenly! It’s true that Christmas is a day to spend with someone important, and some couples do spend it together!

But leading directly to making children—no, I guess it can happen... It might lead to that for some people...

Asia and Irina fidget and say:

”...According to Japanese Christmas customs, the present for Issei-san is myself, isn’t it? If someone like me is acceptable, then please!”

”Th-the Japanese Christmas seems to have changed quite a bit while I was away... B-but, giving oneself is not incomprehensible from a Christian perspective, and if Issei-kun wants it...!”

All three of them are misunderstanding! It’s true such a Christmas might exist, but don’t think it’s the case for all of Japan!?

And also, if you’re offering, I’ll take it! I’ll gladly accept!

Matsuda and Motohama glare at me resentfully, crying out in tears.

”Ugh, Issei, you idiot! I hope your important parts rot and fall off!”

No way... that would be a problem. I wouldn’t be able to make babies with Miyu!

”He’s got a steady stream of beautiful girls! Someone who turns a holy night into a horny night should be crucified! You devil!”

Yeah, I am a devil, though? Getting crucified would probably deal massive damage to a devil.

””We won’t lend you any ecchi DVDs or eroge games!””

They shout at me, arms around each other, sobbing.

Fine by me! I’ve got Miyu and the others!

Rattle

The classroom door opens, and our homeroom teacher, Sakata-sensei, enters with his hands in his lab coat.

”Alright, all of you, get to your seats. And Matsuda and Motohama, you two are too loud, so go stand in the hallway!”

””That’s unreasonable!””

After this, the teacher distributed notices and handouts for winter break, and the classes for the year concluded.
