Chapter 13 - Chapter 4 - If you want to keep a bird, use a birdcage.

"Yawn..."

A few days after I had my way with Koneko. I don't know if it's because I made her walk naked through the city at night or for some other reason, but ever since then, I've had to keep her in a constant state of hypnosis, only releasing it when we're about to do it, otherwise, she'll jump on me.

...Did I overdo it? Well, I planned to keep doing it for all eternity anyway, so it's not really a problem... and if it's not a problem, then it's fine.

Now, who should be next... As I pondered this on the rooftop, listening to the clamor of the classroom during lessons, I happened to see the first-year students outside .

"...Ravel Phenex... Yeah, I'll go with her... Now, for that, I need to make preparations..."

Ravel Phenex... She's a pure-blooded devil and supposedly the young lady (?) of the immortal Phenex family. However, unlike my immortality, hers is apparently dependent on her mental state, if she's cornered mentally, her healing slows down (though it seems she does heal). In that case, my immortality seems stronger... My regeneration ability may be an add-on, but unlike devils, I don't have a weakness to holy water or angelic light. Since it's not dependent on my mental state, it's not a problem... Her older brother is a King, and I hear his entire peerage is made up of women. I'll take that over eventually.

For now, what I need to do is make Ravel Phenex mine... On my side now are four devils and angels, and a considerable number of regular students, both male and female, are my pawns. It should be fine to make a move from my side soon... The only other worry is Koneko's sister... Apparently, she's better at handling ki than Koneko and can read even the slightest differences... So far, no harm has come to me, so either she hasn't found out yet, or she's watching from somewhere, waiting to kill me... I think it's one of those two...

"Well, no use thinking about it. What I need to do now is get Ravel."

I've heard she's very reliable when it comes to information... If I can make use of that on my side , nothing would be better... Also, Rossweisse-sensei is apparently skilled in both offense and defense. There's a high possibility she's using some kind of invisible defensive magic circle as a detection filter for when something is done to her, and I also want to ask if there are any loopholes if she has one up. If I had targeted Rossweisse-sensei first, I might have been in danger.

Even if I create a command to weaken the opponent, if it's repelled by a defensive magic circle, I'll definitely be in trouble. And even if my power is strong, if the controller is stolen, it's all over. However, she doesn't seem to have much in terms of physical attacks, so if I can exploit that... There's no way she'd leave such a weakness as it is. ...I also considered using Xenovia and the others to make them fight each other, but it probably wouldn't be straightforward, and frankly, that would be a bad move... Besides, if it becomes a flashy battle, the remaining peerage members will definitely come. If the hypnosis is nullified, Xenovia and Koneko will definitely come to kill me. Even if I make a command that can't be nullified, if that gets nullified, it's over... Do I have to go myself? I hate fighting... but I guess I have to do it sometimes...

"First, I need to ask if there are any loopholes in her defense."

Alright, I'll go home once and get ready. It should be easy to call her using Koneko.

Lunch Break

"Well, I've finished my preparations and come back to school, but..."

Honestly, if you asked me if I could make her fall with this, I could only give a vague answer. Of course, I've heard her immortality is mentally dependent. In other words, if her wounds become difficult to heal, it means her spirit is breaking... but honestly, for me, it's hard to tell unless it's visibly obvious that the healing is slow. Well, if I keep at it, I'll eventually find out.

Hmm? What did I do for preparations? I just made various torture tools for women in that room... and I also changed the interior design a little. I'm surprised I could change it... though it took a little time.

Also, something just occurred to me. If I don't have time, I can just use that room. And to bring her in... I think it would be powerful if I could stop time, so I created a command to stop time... But as expected, it doesn't go so conveniently. It turns out that only I and the inorganic objects I'm touching can move. It's not that I can't carry people or animals, but people are heavy... I made it so that I just have to think it to stop time. To release it, I just have to think it... Still, I'll only test it on Ravel for movement.

If I'm going to test it seriously, the next opportunity will be with the remaining Occult Research Club girls and the men associated with them. I especially have to be careful with Hyoudou. There's a real possibility that the dragon inside him could break the hypnosis on Hyoudou, just as I fear. It would be fine if I could nullify it, but according to the girls I've made fall, Hyoudou has suffered near-fatal injuries before but has come back stronger each time... Is he some kind of protagonist? That's why it seems like even if I defeat him once, he could easily cancel everything out in a way I can't imagine... Is it what they call protagonist-privilege? Well, how convenient... Then let's shatter that convenient setup... If I can defeat him, Rias will be much easier to make fall... and then there's the maid at the Gremory household and Rias's mother, and the student councilPresident's sister.

...Well, there's no point in making a blueprint for the future now. For now, I have to put the little bird Ravel in a cage and make her fall.

"First... I'll use time stop to carry Ravel to my house."

In my mind, I chant for time to stop. Being a second-year in high school, it would be suspicious if I struck a pose and yelled "Time, stop!" like some vampire. ...I want to shout it, though. I really love that guy. ...When I think it, the characteristic buzz of the school during lunch break suddenly comes to a halt. And I confirm that the students who were making noise outside have also stopped in what would normally be impossible postures, and I become convinced that I have stopped time.

"Alright... now I just have to find Ravel."

Honestly, rather than doing it right in front of her, I want to do it where no one can see me when I stop time... It means I'll have to search for her later, but this way is safer.

"Now then... where could she be?"

First, I search for Ravel while looking down the hallway where the first-year classrooms are lined up. I'm searching as carefully as possible, but... as expected, she's hard to find.

Then, after searching for a while—

"...Oh, there she is. To think she'd be in the hallway where the second-year classrooms are."

She was probably planning to eat lunch with Hyoudou, but too bad. You'll be eating lunch with me... well, before that, you'll have various things done to you. Now, I'll literally carry her on my shoulder back to my house...

"Heave-ho... oh, she's surprisingly light."

The fact that I can carry her so easily means she's quite light. Hmm, she's small but has breasts. Good, good. I'll carry her home and use that room. Literally, a second is more than enough.

POV Ravel

"---Eh?"

When I came to, I found myself in an unfamiliar cell. Just a moment ago, I was at school, about to eat lunch with Issei-sama and the others... My arms are tied, my clothes have been taken off, and I'm naked, which is embarrassing, but... could it be the work of terrorists after the Phoenix Tears again? For that, it seems they've only locked me up and haven't done anything in particular...?

"Hello, Ravel-chan, are you awake?"

"!!"

A man's voice suddenly sounds. I turn towards the voice and see an unfamiliar man... He's wearing the Kuoh Academy uniform, so is he a second or third year? However, considering what he's doing, there's no way he's just a normal human... But there's no one else around, so is he acting alone? I don't know what kind of ability he has, but if I disappear, someone will notice immediately... Then it will be the end for this person...!!

"Oh? You're not as surprised as I expected... even though you're naked, tied up, and unable to move."

"Hmph... I was indeed a little surprised that you brought me here in an instant, but once Issei-sama and the others notice, it's over for you, you know?"

Yes, time is passing even now... Once lunch break is over and it's discovered I've disappeared from the academy, they should come looking for me right away...!!

"Well now... do you really think they'll come?"

"Of course they will!! Those people will definitely come!!"

"Well... I wonder how long that bravado will last?"

...This confidence seems to confirm that he's not alone but has several, or perhaps a considerable number, of accomplices outside . Are they terrorists after all...? But there's no way Issei-sama and the others will lose!! They will surely rush to my side ...!!

POV Kaneo

...She probably thinks I have allies... I want to tell her I don't have any and that it's still lunch break outside , but saying that won't benefit me, so I'll let it slide. I haven't told any lies. Even if she reached this place in a second, 100 years have already passed inside . I don't know how much time has passed outside , but it's no problem at all, so let's get this over with quickly... The reason I redecorated the room to look like a prison was because I wanted to do it with that kind of atmosphere.

For now, I pick up the SM whip that was lying there. Let's try this approach this time.

"N-no matter how much you hit me with that whip, I won't say anything!! I have no intention of crying either!!"

Huh? Cry? A crying face is alluring, but that's not what this is about right now... Oh, right, do Phoenix Tears have a healing effect? Is that what she thinks I'm after? Well, if she thinks that, it's fine by me. It has nothing to do with me.

"Is that so, is that so. But I am curious to see when that resolve of yours will break."

I swing the whip lightly and strike the ground. A sharp crack echoes through the air, and she trembles at the sound.

My, my, how cute to be scared by just the sound... Let's enjoy this until her spirit breaks.

"Here... we go!"

"Hagh!!"

I strike her once. It seems to be painful, as the spot where I hit her stomach turns red. However, after a short while, the red mark returns to its original white skin. So this is the Phenex regeneration ability. It's fast.

"It hurts, doesn't it? Even if you heal right away, you should still feel the pain. If you give me what I want now, I'll forgive you."

What I want is information. I'll make her spill everything... though I know she has no intention of doing so.

"There's no way I'd tell you something like that!!"

Here it comes. This girl's lines are so predictable... She's like a textbook example of the "Kuh, kill me!" type of response when taken hostage. It's truly thrilling and worth corrupting... Now, let's swing the whip more and make her scream more. I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of moans those screams will turn into later.

"Agh! Gah! Hguu!!"

She really screams in an amusing way... But let's leave it at that for now. What I want isn't domination through fear. Domination through pleasure is more likely to make her unable to resist than domination through pain and fear. Still, the places I just hit heal right away. It's really interesting.

"But still... hurting a woman isn't very fun."

I once again think, "Time, stop." As expected, Ravel's movements stop in the same way. The reason I stopped it now is to raise her sensitivity with the controller. Then why didn't I do it from the start? There was a possibility that the regeneration wouldn't work without pain. If her consciousness was focused on pleasure rather than pain, there was a chance her injuries would heal slower. It's not like I want to injure her.

For now, since it's true that pain leads to healing, I'll gradually raise her sensitivity and hammer in pain and pleasure at the same time. And I'll repeat that endlessly.

It's okay, it's okay, lunch break has just started at the academy... If lunch break has just started, then in this room, we'll be together for thousands, no, maybe tens of thousands of years... Literally, we have plenty of time... Fufufu, I wonder how many years it will take for that resolve to break. I'm looking forward to it.
