_____________________________________
Erias and Ophis were having a light meal at the food court. Ophis was having doughnuts full of zest. It seems that the Dragon-God has a sweet tooth and would eat anything that is sweet-related.
“I, like doughnuts, cookies.” mumbled Ophis as she munched on the sweets.
"Now then, shopping is nearly done." Rias said. "The only thing left is... Ophis' underwear!"
After finishing their food, the 3 visited the girl’s underwear corner.
The atmosphere inside the store is grandeur. And the underwear and undergarments displayed on the shelves are all designer ones.
Rias excitedly checked a shelf while pulling Erin's hand. The latter also held on to Ophis' hand so she won't get lost. While they were examining the underwear, some of the female customers looked at them curiously.
"Look at those 3, they are so cute!"
"Are they siblings?"
"Nah. They don't look alike. Or at least the red-haired one is dating the brown-haired girl."
"Honto? Well, they look lovely together though."
While holding onto an underwear, Rias and Ophis started a conversation on their own. Rias released her interlaced hands with Erin so she can look further into the underwear.
“Ophis which one do you want?”
“I, don’t know.”
“Then, a colored one is good. Which one is your favourite colour?”
“Black....”
“That’s right, that color will suit you. How is this?.. The size may be a bit too big.”
“Should I make them bigger? My breasts are smooth and flat.”
“You may be able to change your breasts into whatever you like however, for your height, the size right now is natural.”
"The sight of Rias helping out Ophis is for some reason... I feel like she is an elder sister……. or a mother. I guess it’s what you call maternal characteristics. Rias has plenty of maternal characteristics that you get yourself wanting to be pampered by her."
While Erin was thinking, she overheard the conversation of some girls nearby.
“Look at it, Asia! At this bold underwear!”
“Hauuu!..............There’s a hole on it, Xenovia!"
“Yeah, the butt is completely visible. It’s already not doing the job of underwear. Don’t you think this one is for dates? Hey, Irina.”
“D-Don’t ask me! I am a Christian! I have decided on pure white underwear!”
“Eh….however, I feel like recently Irina bought pink colored underwear with a bear print on it……”
“Asiaaaaa! Why do you know that!? Nooo! You saw me!”
“The Lord won’t be angry with bears, Irina. Even I recently tried a transparent type.”
“Really, Xenovia! It’s surely defiance like a lesser devil!”
"Everyone seems to be shopping today." thought Erin with furrowed brows. "If Asia is here, I'm guessing Issei also decided to come along."
“Fufufu, And also, I will win in this battle of making children with Erin by buying these panties with a hole showing the whole butt.”
“Eeeeee! Xenovia, you will buy those panties!? More like, it’s once again becoming like that! Aaaah, Oh Lord, and Michael-sama, what should I do! By buying these panties with a hole showing the whole butt, will my faith decrease?"
“What are you all doing…..”
Erin approached the trio and spoke the words with a sigh. The trio instantly turned around and wore an expression of surprise
However, Xenovia immediately recovered from her surprise, and asked Erin in a serious tone.
“Perfect timing, Erin. Who’s the one between us 3 on whom this underwear with a hole in it will suit? Your opinion shall become the greatest reply!”
"What are you asking me so suddenly? And why are you including Asia on this? That type of question should have been directed on Issei who is her boyfriend."
When Erin glanced at Asia and Irina, she was suprised that they mirrored Xenovia's serious expression.
"I will consider Erin's response as a valuable input. Since she is Issei's best friend, she will know what Issei likes. If she approves of the underwear, it is a high chance that Issei also approves." spoke Asia with determination.
"W-What's with you all, geez! Why am I being asked about who the panties with a hole showing the whole butt would suit among the 3 the best?!"
The other customers gave curious looks at the group and started giggling among themselves.
"My my. Teens nowadays are so lively."
"Hai hai."
"How should I answer? I can't choose Xenovia since she might get crazier. Who knows on what she'll do... Asia is also not an option.. Well... For the time being, let’s let it flow suitably."
“Um, then, how about Irina?”
Irina's face becomes pure red and she
twisted her body.
“I-If I fall at a place like this it’s going to be troublesome, bear it, Irina……! But, But, Erin said that it would suit me…..! What should I do! Fuhehehe, it feels like I will become a fallen angel!”
"I-If she opens her wings here, it will probably become very terrible……" thought Erin and scolded herself.
“I’ll buy it! I’ll buy this!”
"Wait Irina- "
Irina took the underwear and ran towards the counter before Erin can stop her.
“Wait, Irina! I will buy it!” spoke Xenovia and Asia as they chased after their friend.
"Those 3 are always high tension... It’s a good thing that they’re friends."
Erin sent her gaze to a different direction and a rare scene came into view.
“Are you going to get that flashy underwear, Akeno?”
“Yeah, Sona. I'm planning to surprise Erin with these types."
"Akeno and President Sona? I knew that these two were very good friends in private.. However, to go with just the two of them without Rias is a very rare scene for me."
Somehow, Erin became really curious on what sort of things the women talk about when it’s just the two of them. She closed her eyes and heightened her sense of hearing.
“Won’t you buy this sort of underwear, Sona?”
“No, I am fine with the normal ones. I sometimes buy ones with patterns.
However, I don’t wear transparent, or the very small shaped ones like yours or Rias.”
Akeno smiles at the response.
“Ara ara, if only there’s a person to show it to, the purchasing desire changes you know?”
“It’s fine if underwear just has it’s functionality.…Well, if by any chance it’s seen, I feel there’s a need of minimum amount of sense…..”
“Yes, yes, if the boy you like sees it and gets a bad impression, you wouldn't
like it right? Girls have to choose underwear with the resolution that it can be seen anytime.”
"I feel there’s a reason. However-“
“Ara, this is good.”
Akeno held an underwear whose cloth area was excessively small. Judging from its apearance, it had abandoned its functionality as an underwear.
Sona's blushing face was contrary to Akeno's. The latter was merely examining the underwear with face full of curiosity.
“Ah, Akeno. That underwear….can’t be called as underwear.”
“Ufufu, it’s underwear. It seems boyfriends or girlfriends like these. While Rias is not present, if I have this, Erin will immediately be aroused and we might reach another base ahead of Rias."
*(DING!)*
"W-Wah. A-Akeno.." Erin shook her head. "Geez.. I guess I have an overly-erotic girlfriend."
“I won’t complain about wearing it in the house but wearing it to school is forbidden, alright? The public morals will be disordered a lot. Before that, are you and Rias wearing flashy underwear from before to school?”
“Geez, Sona. You’re the student council president even in private life. Ufufu, really, your onee-sama is completely opposite. If it was Serafall-sama, she seems to have had an interest in this type of underwear.”
On Akeno's words, Sona suddenly gets flustered.
“Wa-Wait! Don’t recommend that to Onee-sama! Just show that to E-Erin Vermillion!"
“Ufufu, you’re also a very big siscon about Serafall-sama.”
“I am not a Siscon. I am only taking care of Onee-sama. If I don’t do that, Onee-sama seems like she would be tricked by a perverted insect.”
“Sona, really, you’re serious but interesting.”
“…….Kuh”
In contrast to Akeno who looked like she was enjoying herself, Sona seemed a bit displeased.
Erin decided that she had enough eavesdropping but when she was about to leave, Akeno spotted her.
"Oh, Erin!"
The raven head immediately pulled her arm and brought her to their side.
" Hi President Sona." Erin sheepishly said. Sona returned the greeting and made a small nod.
"Erin, I wanna hear your thoughts." Akeno latched her arms around Erin's neck. Using one hand, she showed the erotic underwear.
"What do you think of me wearing this?"
"Um... W-Well.." Erin diverted her gaze and laughed awkwardly. "Isn't that kind of.. dangerous?"
"Dangerous?" Akeno inched closer and spoke seductively. "In what way?"
Sona blushed faintly at their interaction and looked away.
"I mean..." Erin cleared her throat. "If you're going to wear that in public with a skirt for example, the skirt might be lifted by the air and you're.. um.. will be exposed."
"Ara? Fufufu." Akeno giggled and caressed Erin's face. "It is indeed troublesome when the air lifts my skirt. More so, that you're the only one I want to lift my skirt."
*(Poof!)*
Erin blushed and tried to hide her embarrassment with a cough. She glanced sideways and hoped that Sona isn't listening to them.
"Akeno.." whispered Erin in a slightly reprimanding tone. "We're in public."
"So is it okay if we just do it in private instead?" replied Akeno in a sensual tone. She started ghosting her lips on Erin's cheek and the Goddess tried to contain Akeno.
Before Akeno can kiss Erin fully, newcomers arrived and it composed of Issei, Saji, Hanakai Momo, and Nimura Ruruko."
“Ara, if it isn't it Issei-kun, Saji, Momo and Ruruko. What a coincidence to have met here.” greeted Akeno while maintaining her hold on Erin.
"Hi Erin! Hi Akeno-senpai!" said Issei with a grin. "I came to accompany Asia. Well, I was originally waiting outside but after seeing Saji and the other council girls, I decided to tag along. Entering the girls' underwear store is a paradise after all!"
Hanakai Momo then informs Sona after approaching her.
“Kaichou! Please hear this! Ruruko is trying to select perverted underwear
for Gen-chan! No matter how you think of it, it’s obscene! It’s impure!”
Hearing that, Nimura Ruruko puffs and turns her face away.
“I just wanted to hear the opinion of a male. Momo-san as well, if you get
your underwear chosen by Genjirou-senpai, isn't is fine?”
“W-What are you saying! If I bring Gen-chan with me to the underwear corner, he’ll become an idiot and perverted too!" She glanced at a sheepish Issei at the mention of perverted. "What do you plan on doing if he becomes a monster!”
Compared to the upset Hanakai, Nimura was smiling calmly.
“Male high school students won’t become like that with just a single underwear I think.”
“I-I, am not really going to ever become perverted, or have tastes in underwear! Kaichou, it’s true! I happened to meet Hanakai-san and Nimura-san coincidentally in the department store, and through this and that came over here! It’s an honor to have met you here, Kaichou!” explained Saji to Sona
After raising her spectacles, Sona replies simply.
“Saji, males can’t be coming recklessly to the girl’s underwear corner. Especially if you aren't here with a significant other or someone who ordered you to tag along. And also, you have to moderate your perversity.”
“Ka-Kaichou…..you’re wrong……”
Saji was in shock after hearing the words from Sona. Seeing that, Akeno smiled and mumbled against Erin's neck.
" Saji Genshirou who still wasn't a likely candidate. It’s far off.. Like, doesn't it seem impossible?"
Erin only hummed in response as she looked at Saji in concern. She eventually excused herself from Akeno but not before giving a kiss to the girl's cheek.
The raven head pouted but immediately smiled when she received the kiss.
"Now then.. I have to get back to Rias and Ophis.."
Rias was in the corridor and was frantically looking around the shop. Erin noticed that Ophis was missing so she immediately rushed to the red head.
"Ophis went somewhere!” explained Rias in slight panic. "What have I done….”
Erin hugged Rias and consoled her before she will break into tears.
"Don't think of it that way, okay? It's not your fault. I should have helped you in watching over Ophis instead of roaming around the other corners of the shop."
Erin shook her head in disappointment and scolded herself
"If I had held Ophis' hand and watched over her, she wouldn't have went away.."
"Let's start searching for her. I believe Ophis hasn't went far. I also saw the other members around here so let's seek for their help too."
Erias called out the church trio, Akeno, Issei, Sona, Saji and the rest and asked them to help find Ophis. They decided that the place in front of the underwear corner is their gathering spot and after that, they began searching around in the department store.
"Was she taken away by someone? It’s not that there’s no possibility but if you ask me, something must have caught her attention and she followed that. Or she must have been curious about the department store and aimlessly got separated from us." Rias said as she and Erin made their search.
"Well, since it’s a Dragon God, it’s not like she’ll get some trouble but someone may get in trouble because of her….”
Erin looked to the left and right in hopes of catching Ophis.
"For the time being, places where it seems she would go, or places which
would catch her attention, we have to put them together and check them."
“It’s a large shop so it’s not certain that Ophis will stay in one place, and there’s a limit to how much we can search. I'll have my familiars help as well.”
After making sure that the guests didn't notice, Rias summoned her familiars and made them search for Ophis. When she was just finished sending them out, the indoor broadcast started ringing throughout the entire department store.
"Lost Child Notice.”
"Could it be..." Rias and Erin shared a look. They hoped that it was Ophis who made the announcement.
“Crimson haired, big boobed mom. The mama with brown-hair and blue eyes who acts as the father. A sister with normal sized boobs with long gold hair. An idiotic looking sister who looks like she has brute strength. A sister who is a self-proclaimed angel."
"Brother and sister looking like birds and a girl looking like a cat. One more mom with black hair and big boobs. A sister looking like she has low happiness and is poor who is silver haired. A perverted guy with a lecherous looking face. And also a handsome guy and a cross dressing boy and a glasses girl…..? "
The announcer stopped for a few seconds before continuing
"Is there a combination of such people? Or are there such looking people nearby? A girl is waiting at the lost child centre. ……….Wait, head! S-Sorry! B-But, this girl said that if I said that they would immediately understa…..ah, my deepest apologies! Please forget this!”
*(Beep!)*
The customers around the area where Rias and Erin are, started looking at them curiously.
“Aren't they them?”
"Crimson-haired and Brown-haired, right?"
"They look like a couple too. So they must be the mom and mama described in the intercom."
“You’re right.”
“L-Leaving this aside." Erin cleared her throat to get rid of her embarrassment. "Let’s hurry to Ophis."
The two get caught in public gaze, and with her face reddening due to
embarrassment, Rias started walking fast. She and Erin met up with the others as they headed to where Ophis is. Along the way, they got inquisitive glances and words from other customers.
“Well, a couple who are high school students? Crimson hair! It’s about them!”
“It’s indeed an idiotic looking lady who looks like she has brute strength!”
“A self proclaimed angel. Lol.”
“A mom with black hair and big boobs……wait, there are two moms? And there are lots of sisters? I-It’s a complex circumstance.”
“It really is a lecherous looking guy with a perverted face!”
The group increased their pace for the time being while their faces got red.
"Shit! Shiiiiiit! Why do we have to face this! It’s extremely embarrassing!" Issei uttered.
“I, for the time being, can’t come to this department store due to embarrassment!” spoke Erin.
Covering her face while walking, Asia looked embarrassed from the bottom
of her heart.
“Sorry for looking idiotic.”
“I am an angel! It’s true!”
Xenovia and Irina also looked like they couldn't agree.
“Fufufu, Sorry. But, fufufu.”
Sona, who wasn't called by the announcement, started to laugh strangely.
“Ufufu, my position as the other mom. It’s not bad. Next time, adultery play with Ophis-chan and Erin may be interesting.” said Akeno with a giggle.
"Akeno looked like she liked the explanation in the announcement. Well.. it's good that she's happy but this is still embarrassing." thought Erin with a red face. She glanced at Rias and saw that while the girl was blushing, she had a really happy face.
“……Mom. I am a mom. Ufufu. Erin is the mama who acts as the father... I see... That’s right. That’s how we are seen, right. Really, Ophis.”
The group eventually reached Ophis. The Dragon-God welcomed them in a stoic tone.
“You’re late. I got tired of waiting.”
Ophis was taken along with a kid eating candy and so, she was unsteadily separated from the underwear corner.
Rias didn't get particularly angry with Ophis, rather, she was off buying
candy for her.
“How is it, Ophis. Is the candy tasty?”
“It’s fluffy and sweet. Tasty.”
“Ufufu, I see. However, don’t separate on your own from us, okay?”
“Got it.”
“That’s right, the mom has to be gentle with her children. Ophis, do you want more of the candy?"
“I want more.”
Rias was in a good mood from the beginning to the end. It seems she was very happy being recognised as ‘mom’ alongside Erin who was recognized as the 'father' figure.
"I am the mama... and the dad, huh. If you look at it from appearances, Ophis is like the big daughter of Rias.." Erin mused.
After finding Ophis, everyone restarted their shopping. The group eventually met with Koneko, Ravel, Riser and Rosweisse.
Kiba, Gasper, and Shinra wasn't present and it seemed like they already went home.
“Riser likes hamburgers, huh! I can’t imagine it!” Issei remarked when he noticed the guy eating his hamburger with a happy look.
“What did you say, Red Emperor?!" Riser replied who was slightly embarrassed though he masked it by acting irritated.
"Hamburgers are tasty! You too, putting miso soup on hamburgers!? That’s why former humans are an uncivilized combination and I am troubled eating with such a group!”
“What did you say!? Doesn't miso soup match with hamburger!” retorted Issei as he abruptly stood up.
"Don’t underestimate the Japanese! As long as there’s rice and miso soup, they can make mostly everything as a side dish! A fried chicken can’t understand that!"
"Issei calm down." spoke Asia as she ushered Issei back on his seat.
"Geez, Onii-sama too. Please don’t fight over hamburgers!” said Ravel with furrowed brows.
Erin watched the exchange silently as she ate her meal. Beside her were Rias and Akeno who were amused hearing the banter.
On the other side, Ophis and Koneko were eating silently while taking
the dishes. In the other seats, the Sitri family was eating enjoyably but only Saji's mood was low from the beginning to the end. This was due to the fact that Sona mistook him as a pervert.
“Let’s go to the 100 yen store in the last! Since good things happened today, I want to exert and spend around 500 Yen worth of articles!”
Rosweisse proudly showed the items she bought with her eyes shining. On everyone's minds, the words of Ophis saying that she is a sister looking like she has low happiness and is poor... is quite matching for her.
________________________________________
The announcement in the department store somehow spread even in the school, and within a bit of time, the ORC became the topic of conversation as “The high school couple and their family which cause trouble at the department store.”
“Issei! Is it true that Erin-san is having a child with Rias-senpai!?”
“So they had children!? Or already adopted children? And they are actually dating? Wait- isn't this more like a marriage during high school!?"
Matsuda and Motohama followed Issei persistently. They looked liked the paparazzi who is eager for gossip and some action.
"I don't know! Stop asking me!"
"Shut up Issei! You're not going to escape this time!"
On the other side, Erin and Ophis were in the old school building. Ophis visits the school whenever she gets bored at home. She teleports by using a magic circle and upon reaching the school, she mostly stays in the old building or in the club room.
Casually looking up, Ophis was gazing at the clear blue sky from the second floor.
“Erin, it’s a clear day.”
“Hey, Ophis. How is the sky here compared to the place you were born?”
Ophis smiles at the question
“It’s not bad.”
" I see..." Erin also smiled when she heard the response. " Then, it’s fine, surely. You can stay over here. Since there are no guys who can bully you here. Nobody even wants snakes, you know?"
Ophis nods before replying.
“Let’s go to the department store again.”
"Aah, really.." Erin chuckled. "That part looks tough, but it is certainly enjoyable. So yeah. I look forward to that."
