Chapter 191: Grayfia's Examination (Part 2)
"I'll pass. I'm not interested in watching another woman get handsy with my man."
With that, Yuuma walked out of the bathroom, closing the door behind her.
Haruto already had plenty of women, and Yuuma didn't particularly care if Grayfia ended up being one more.
On the contrary, if Grayfia actually developed feelings, she'd be even happier.
If Haruto could dual cultivate with the strongest queen even once, there was a high chance he could break through to a higher realm.
If Haruto's strength increased, Yuuma would gain more benefits from dual cultivation herself. With a few more sessions, she might even become an S-class powerhouse.
"Really... acting like I'm trying to steal her man..."
As the bathroom sliding door closed, Grayfia sighed with some exasperation.
"With such a cute face, who would have thought what's down below would be so big... I wonder how it would feel to have something this large inside..."
The silver-haired beauty glanced at the proudly standing dragon, then at Haruto's delicate features, subtly adjusting her panties beneath her loose maid dress.
It had been many years since Grayfia had experienced intimate pleasures, ever since having her child.
Unlike humans, demons don't necessarily experience increased sexual desire at this stage of life. However, seeing such an impressive dragon awakened her feminine instincts, causing her mature body to react.
Grayfia knelt beside Haruto, extending her slender index finger to flick the crimson dragon's head. The dragon seemed to take it as a challenge, throbbing vigorously several times before shaking itself in her direction.
"So hard... so hot..."
Like a playful little girl who found her favorite toy, the silver-haired beauty wrapped her pale hand around the dragon, then slowly tightened her grip.
The moment her cool, delicate palm made contact with the dragon, waves of exquisite sensation and stimulation flooded through Haruto.
Though he couldn't see, the mere thought of the hand belonging to the so-called strongest queen Grayfia touching him made him exceptionally excited, secretly hoping for certain indescribable things to happen.
Unfortunately, after playing with the dragon for a while to satisfy her curiosity, Grayfia returned to her actual task.
Having such thoughts was perfectly normal - just like how men might think of sex when they see bare legs.
But whether to act on those thoughts was another matter entirely.
In fact, if she hadn't believed Haruto was unconscious, she wouldn't have even given him this small favor.
The examination didn't require complete nudity, and even if it did, there was no need to handle the dragon.
Since things had already progressed to this point, Grayfia saw no reason to hypocritically ask Yuuma to dress Haruto again.
Silver-white magical energy slowly spread from Haruto's chest throughout his body. After a moment, the silver-haired beauty withdrew her hand and stood up slowly.
She glanced at Haruto, her eyes unconsciously drifting toward the still-erect dragon, murmuring to herself, "You got lucky, little guy."
She knelt down again, her slender, pale hands gently covering the dragon. After half-examining, half-teasing it for a while, the silver-haired beauty finally confirmed her findings.
"Just as I thought."
Before leaving, Grayfia flicked little Haruto once more out of spite, leaving the immobilized Haruto speechless.
After Grayfia left, Yuuma entered the room. Seeing the dragon that appeared slightly more swollen, she cast a meaningful glance toward the living room with a knowing smile.
Sure enough, such a mature married woman couldn't possibly resist playing with a dragon she could do anything to.
"Haruto, it seems your charm isn't enough to win the favor of the strongest queen," Yuuma teased while straddling him, not caring whether he could hear her or not.
While Yuuma enjoyed the thrill of 'taking advantage' of Haruto, Rias and the others watched Grayfia nervously, waiting for her examination results.
"Grayfia, is Haruto just too tired? Will he be fine after sleeping for a few more days?"
"Miss Rias, that's possible, but the probability is very low."
The silver-haired beauty adjusted her maid uniform's skirt and said, "According to my examination, Haruto-sama's soul has been trapped by that energy because he forcibly used Juggernaut Drive."
"What do you mean?"
Instead of answering immediately, Grayfia asked in return, "How much do you know about Juggernaut Drive?"
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.
Haruto had basically never told them about Sacred Gears and rarely used them normally. This time, he directly used various dangerous abilities. They only knew the side effects were severe, but they had no idea what Juggernaut Drive actually was.
Rias knew a little, having read some related content in books before, but not much.
"Juggernaut Drive temporarily forcibly lifts the seal of the Red Dragon Emperor, releasing the sealed power. It grants god-rivaling strength for a short time, but the risks are great. After using it, lifespan is significantly reduced..."
Grayfia explained concisely, "That's how it should be originally, but Haruto-sama likely didn't negotiate with the Red Dragon Emperor. He forcibly lifted the seal for five seconds relying on his own control over the Sacred Gear."
The silver-haired beauty looked around and delivered the final conclusion.
"So, when the seal restored, his soul and consciousness were trapped along with it."
Everyone was momentarily stunned. After a long pause, Rias asked, "Grayfia... how can we rescue Haruto's soul and consciousness?"
"There are methods, but I need to go back and research the specific procedures."
A silver magic circle appeared beneath the silver-haired beauty's feet. "Haruto-sama isn't in any life-threatening danger now, so you don't need to worry too much."
Rias nodded. It might be good to wait these few days to see if Haruto would wake up on his own, though the possibility was extremely slim.
The moment the silver magic circle completed, Grayfia informed Rias to report all of Haruto's information to her in as much detail as possible.
After carefully examining Haruto's body, the silver-haired beauty discovered several strange aspects.
Coupled with Azazel's death this time, Haruto's existence would definitely attract the attention of major figures.
Rias hesitated for a moment but ultimately agreed.
Even if she refused, if Grayfia really wanted the information, it would just take more time to investigate. Besides, Haruto's matters would eventually have to be told to her brother, the Satan Sirzechs.
Aside from Haruto himself, Rias could be said to be the person who knew him best, having essentially watched him grow step by step from an ordinary human to his current level.
Dual cultivation ability, suspected ancient demon bloodline, combat specialist, magic genius, acquisition of Sacred Gear, missing parents...
Even Haruto's ability to copy talents and skills, which he had told no one about, she seemed to vaguely sense, but she didn't include this speculation in her letter.
After Grayfia left, the others also began to act according to Rias's earlier instructions.
The mother and two daughters of the Takamine family, upon hearing the news, immediately requested to come with Akeno to see Haruto.
Meanwhile, Yuuto and the other three infiltrated the church basement. With Azazel dead, these fallen angels—not even one of them A-rank—were no match for them.
However, with the three factions' meeting imminent, they refrained from killing anyone.
After gathering all the documents, they finally understood Azazel's purpose.
Azazel had specifically come to Kuoh Town for the Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet, and incidentally, Yuuto's Holy Sword was also part of his plan.
He hadn't pursued Asia further because he intended to infiltrate the Occult Research Club, believing that once he conquered everyone, Twilight Healing would naturally fall into his hands.
The plan didn't specify exactly how to achieve this, but regardless, being treated as a 'lab rat' was utterly repulsive.
...
In the Occult Research Club's activity room, Rias watched the two entwined figures in the bathroom, her delicate face first flushing red before she angrily shouted, "Yuuma! We don't even know if Haruto's body is okay yet, and you're actually..."
"President... wait... I... mmm... almost... oh... there..."
Yuuma collapsed onto Haruto, panting softly, "President, Haruto has a dual cultivation ability. I'm helping him~"
As she spoke, she pushed herself up again, her round, full hips beginning to rise and fall rhythmically.
"President, wait a little longer. Haruto hasn't... released yet... the dual cultivation effect isn't optimal..."
Rias felt Yuuma was being sophistical, yet she couldn't deny there was some logic to her words.
She waited outside the door for a while, watching as Yuuma climaxed three times, before finally losing patience and sliding the door open.
"Keep going, I need to take a bath."
She began undressing while saying, "Remember to clean the bathroom when you're done."
"Mmm... understood... President..."
"And don't get too wild. We still don't know if Haruto's body is truly alright."
"Ahh... so good... hnn... President... I'll... just milk out... one more time... then stop..."
