DxD: My Main Skill is Winning Hearts

Chapter 16 – My Angel and My Demon

When I woke up, the sun's rays came in timidly through the open window of my room.

'How did I get here?'

My bed was much closer than usual and I could feel fluffy 'things' wrapped around both my arms.

I opened my eyes very slowly, still very sleepy. It felt as if I hadn't slept in years.

That's how my still very sleepy eyes saw Rias Gremory lying to my left. Her red hair was spread across the pillow like a fan of fire. Her naked body was partially covered by a white sheet, the same sheet that was over my body.

Rias clasped my left arm, pressing her naked breasts against me.

I didn't jump up; I was too sleepy.

To my surprise, there was another girl on my right. It was Asia Argento, but unlike Rias, she was dressed in simple pajamas that were larger than normal on her body. It was probably a borrowed outfit. Her blonde hair was slightly disheveled, and her calm expression conveyed an angelic purity.

It was like having an angel and, literally, a devil tempting me.

Obviously, I saw this situation as an opportunity rather than a problem. My hands almost moved to Ria's breasts so that I could feel a naked breast for the first time in my life. But I stopped myself and touched her forehead lightly, waking her.

Her eyes opened just as slowly as mine had.

A mischievous glint appeared in her blue irises as she saw my face so close, and a teasing smile curved her lips.

"Ah...~ Good morning, sleepyhead." She pressed her body closer to mine, her bare breasts brushing against my skin in a tantalizing way. "Were you watching me sleep? I hope you at least dreamed about me."

I tried to keep my composure.

"Good morning, Rias. How... how did I get here?"

Before she could answer, I felt a movement to my right.

Asia stirred, her small hands tightening slightly around my arm. Her eyes opened slowly, and she blinked a few times before realizing where she was.

A huge blush colored her cheeks as she saw how close the three of us were, especially when Rias stood up a little, showing off her large, bare breasts.

"Leo, what... what's going on?" Asia asked with a slightly trembling voice.

"I don't know exactly what happened. Why are you two here?"

Rias stretched and grabbed the sheet so as not to expose herself too much.

"Asia, don't worry. Nothing bad happened. Remember what I said? devils like Leo and I can heal ourselves with magic if we sleep together naked."

Asia blushed. "Yes, I remember you saying that and..."

"Wait, what's going on? How did we get here? And why is Asia in my bed?"

Rias straightened up and sat on the edge of the bed, the sheet wrapped around her body. "After we defeated the priest, you passed out. Probably from exhaustion. Asia was very worried about you. I told her it was time to go, but she insisted on accompanying us, even though it was dangerous for her to be associated with the Church."

Asia tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "I couldn't leave Leo alone, especially after what happened."

"I explained to her that these were risks I was not willing to take. Having someone from the Church fraternizing with devils could get me into big trouble. So I offered her to be my [bishop] and she accepted so that I could be by her side, Leo."

I looked at Asia and asked:

"Did you... did you leave the church? Because of me?"

Asia clasped her hands together and shook her head in denial. "Actually, Leo, when I saw what Father Freed was doing and heard the things he said to me... My mind was made up. I love God, but I could no longer work with people who killed innocent people without remorse. When Rias made her proposal to me, I decided once and for all that I no longer wanted to follow that path, I decided that I wanted to have friends, even if they were devils".

"Asia is a devil now, just like you and me."

I looked at Asia and understood the gravity of her decision. However, I had done all of this to help her not die and not have to become a devil. This time she had a choice, and yet the story remained unchanged. Could this be called a "canonical point"?

Despite everything, Asia seemed calm.

"Asia, are you okay with this?" I asked.

She gave me a reassuring smile. "Yes, Leo. I don't think God is angry with me, otherwise a light pole would have fallen from the sky on me by now." Asia put both hands on her head, vividly imagining the scene.

I laughed at her way of seeing things. "I don't think things work that way, Asia."

"You never know! After all, God is God!"

After explaining the outcome of the previous evening, Rias told me that Asia would have to stay with me until she found a safe and suitable place for her to live. This was good news for me because it meant that I could move my relationship with Asia forward faster than with any other girl.
