Chapter 359: Who Are You?
Hearing her question, the strange person stood up from their seat while letting out a chilling laugh that echoed through the entire garden, making Asher and Rias' hair stand on end.
Then they spoke with a voice that sounded like nails scratching against glass. "Why don't you ask that young man standing behind you? He might know who I am."
Rias looked over her shoulder at Asher with a confused look on her face, wondering what kind of person it was. But Asher didn't seem surprised by their words. On the contrary, he seemed amused by them as he walked forward, passing by her side.
"What is going on here?" Rias asked in confusion as she watched Asher move closer towards this unknown person without any hesitation or fear whatsoever.
When Asher stopped just a few feet away from this entity, he crossed his arms across his broad chest before speaking to the entity in front of him.
"You know I am not a kid anymore," he said in a playful tone while smirking. His voice carried no hint of anxiety or nervousness that one might expect when addressing someone who exuded such an intimidating presence.
Hearing Asher's words, Rias couldn't help but wonder who it could be that Asher knew and could talk so casually with. After all, there weren't many people who could make others feel so tense by their mere presence.
"It doesn't matter if you are a kid or not." The voice cackled before continuing. "To me, you will still be the same little boy who cried a lot every time you saw me."
Then the dark fog surrounding the entity dispersed in an instant, revealing a voluptuous and extremely beautiful woman with waist-length black hair that were red on its end, crimson eyes, and pale skin wearing a black dress that did little to hide her curvaceous figure.

Her intimidating aura disappeared after she revealed herself, making Rias sigh in relief. However, now that she got a better look at this newcomer's appearance, Rias couldn't help but think how bewitching she looked.
She had never seen a woman as alluring as this one before, even though Aria came pretty close. However, her beauty wasn't as dangerous or seductive as this woman in front of them.
But despite her attractiveness, something seemed off about her. It was like there was a darkness hidden deep within her soul that threatened to consume anyone who dared approach her without caution or respect.
"Supreme Elder?" Rias, who recovered from her shocked state, called out with a hint of surprise and confusion on her face. But when she saw no response from her, she turned her attention towards Asher, wondering how he knew her.
However, Asher's reaction caught her completely unprepared when he looked at this person with a bright smile plastered across his visage. Then, before she knew what happened next, Rias saw Asher moving forward before wrapping his arms around that woman in a tight embrace.
"Grandma!!" Asher shouted with excitement as he hugged her.
Asher felt like an innocent child who had just found his lost family member after years of searching. He hadn't expected to meet her here at Twilight Mist Sect; however, now that she stood before him in all her glory, Asher couldn't contain his happiness.
Seeing Asher calling her Grandma and then hugging her made Rias' mind numb. She couldn't understand what was going on anymore.
First, some mysterious entity shows up out of nowhere and scares the living shit out of her.
And now, it turns out that it is actually their Supreme Elder, whom no one has seen or heard from for a long time in the sect. Not to mention Asher knew this person and even called her grandma.
'Just what the fuck is going on here?' Rias thought in her mind as she looked at these two people hugging each other.
When the woman saw Asher coming towards her, she smiled warmly before wrapping her slender arms around him and returning the embrace. "My cute grandson! It's been so long since I've seen you last." She said with a motherly tone in her voice.
"Yes, grandma. I missed you a lot," Asher replied with a big smile plastered across his visage.
"Oh, did you?" She asked while running her fingers through Asher's hair affectionately as if he were still just a young child.
After staying in that position for some time, she pushed Asher back a little before looking into his eyes with a teasing expression on her face. "I heard you are quite popular with girls nowadays. Hmmm... Who could have guessed that my cute grandson would turn into such a pervert? Haha..."
Hearing her words, Asher grinned mischievously before replying, "What can I say? I am young and handsome, so why not enjoy life? Plus, all those girls are so adorable."
Then Asher noticed Rias staring at them with a dumbfounded look on her face. So he looked towards her while gesturing with his hands to come near him. "Come here, Teacher Rias."
Rias nodded her head in response before walking closer to the two of them.
After she arrived beside him, Asher looked back at his grandmother, who also turned her attention towards Rias with a smirk on her face.
"Grandma, she is my teacher, Rias Claymore, and also one of my women." Asher introduced Rias to her before turning his gaze back onto Rias and speaking, "And Teacher Rias, this is my grandmother, Arianna Blake."
Arianna smiled at Asher when he introduced Rias and smiled, "I have met her before. Although it was a very long time ago." Then looking at Rias, she said, "So you are the one my grandson has been having fun with before coming here? I can smell both your scents mixed together from here."
"Greetings, Supreme Elder. I didn't know that Asher was your grandson." Rias replied after bowing respectfully toward her before continuing. "And yes, we were Dual Cultivating before coming here."
Hearing her answer, Arianna chuckled before shaking her head. "There's no need to be so formal with me, child. You are my grandson's woman, so feel free to call me Arianna or anything else that suits your fancy."
