Beyond Critical - Chapter 15.2

Bright and early on Saturday morning, Kaito's eyes opened up at the prompt of his cell phone alarm.

Irina, sprawled over his chest and dressed in a pair of skimpy pink pajama's gave a sleepy murmur but didn't stir all that much. She was quite the heavy sleeper.

He reached over with his free hand and turned off the alarm and just lay there for a moment, enjoying the feeling of one of his girls soft bodies pressed against him.

She was so soft and so warm.

Kaito admired Irina's cute sleeping face, her hair undone from its usual twin tails and falling in a long waterfall down her back.

He stroked his hand through her hair, just taking her in and confirming as he had done near every morning over the past two weeks, that this was real. Irina was his girlfriend.

Fiance even according to her.

As was Yanagi.

Bright smile appearing on his face, Kaito gently extracted himself from his girlfriends embrace, allowing her to roll over onto his pillow and nuzzle her face into it.

Before getting his early weekend morning preparations taken care of. He washed up, changed into some exercise clothing and had some pre-work out.

Before leaving the house behind by six-thirty in the morning.

He was meeting Yanagi at her place this morning at half-ten. The earliest she would ever pull herself from bed on a weekend.

Until then, he could get a decent work out in.

His plan was simple.

A thirty mile jog.

Then two hours in the gym.

Then another thirty mile jog.

Then he would head to Yanagi's.

While it wasn't really any different from what he did everyday, he was super glad he made it a habit. Working out as hard as he did everyday, did wonders for his self control around his girls.

It was funny how both Yanagi and Irina were down bad to fuck straight away before. But after everything that happened, the intimacy part of their relationships had stalled.

He made out with them both multiple times a day. He got to feel them up as he pleased. And Yanagi was definitely not okay in allowing Irina alone to be the one to help slurp up the dragon power within him.

But that was as far as they'd gotten at this point, Yanagi had been the one to stall things a bit despite how gung-ho she was before.

Though-

…She had picked up using her inner magic power as a funnel like Irina told her really fast.

And she picked up sensing magic just as quickly. Kaito was still struggling with it. From what he gathered, the trick to sensing magic was not so much as spreading his own magic power out like sonar, but rather using his own magic within his body like a radio tower picking up on radio waves.

Figuring that out though, had put him no closer to figuring out how to do it.

Kaito sighed in defeat as he jogged through the park on his way to Yanagi's. He'd probably need to take the time to change before he headed to his short stack girlfriends home. Luckily there were some public bathrooms in this park he could change at.

He was almost dreading heading to her place today though, since she wanted to reveal to her family that they were dating down. Fujio was going to be a pain for sure.

"….S-sixty o-one." Kaito paused as he heard a wheezing, almost familiar voice echo through the park.

He cocked his head to the side.

Surely not?

"S-si…..x….sixty….two." there it went again.

Kaito resisted the urge to sigh in annoyance as his curiosity got the better of him. He listened as the voice struggled to count out two more…of whatever he was doing.

"Sixty….five!" Issei Hyoudou grunted out, sounding like he was trying to squeeze the mother of all shits out of his ass.

He should just walk away, but again, his curiosity got the better of him, so he made his way over to where he heard the voice, turning around the bend to find Issei Hyoudou doing push ups, albeit, horrible ones going by the positioning of his arms.

Completely horrible form and technique.

Sitting atop his back, casually resting on him as he struggled up and down, was the ever gorgeous Rias Gremory.

'The fuck?' Kaito couldn't stop his head from tilting to the side as the perverts hips gyrated, practically humping the air…and the ground as he lowered towards it.

"There's lewd thoughts going on in your brain right now I see, I can tell by the way you're wiggling your hips Issei." Rias rolled her eyes and gently smacked him on the ass.

"Ooh!" he…moaned? And froze mid-air and began wiggling his ass from side to side, "I can't help it buchou! When I think about you riding on my back, my inner stallion reaches maximum power!"

Kaito couldn't help it.

He snorted.

Derisively.

And very loudly.

Hyoudou froze, a look of horror appearing on his face as his head mechanically turned around to look at Kaito and as he did, his eyes widened in terror and looked as if he'd seen a ghost.

Rias on the other hand, merely smiled at him and tossed him a wave, "Hello Kaito-kun, a lovely morning isn't it?" she greeted him, unperturbed.

"Gremory," he nodded back before meeting Hyoudou's eyes and giving him a look of utter disgust and contempt, "Hyoudou, can you do nothing without involving that tiny little worm between your legs and letting it get in the way? Honestly, here I almost thought you were doing something respectable."

Rias' immaculately trimmed red eyebrows rose up into her hairline at his words and she casually stood up as her pawn trembled beneath her.

It looked like she was waiting to see what he did.

"Screw you muscle freak! It's not that small!" Hyoudou protested, pushing himself to his feet.

"Keep telling yourself that, one day it might actually reach five inches." Kaito snorted again, crossing his arms and tilting his chin up, just to make sure he knew how much he looked down on him.

"It's five and a quarter actually!" Issei roared back, shaking his fist at him angrily.

So angrily in fact, a flash of red erupted from it and a moment later a crimson red gauntlet with a green jewel in the middle formed at the back of the hand of it.

….Was that supposed to be his comeback?

In response, Kaito raised an eyebrow at him, calling upon his first Sacred Gear with a thought, the black and gold gauntlet forming seamlessly, "Yeah? Mine's twelve."

Usually, he would not literally resort to a dick measuring contest. It was juvenile and honestly, his dick was more trouble than it was worth most of the time.

But he'd happily abuse the size of it to crush Hyoudou's dignity.

Hyoudou froze, gaping at him, before shaking his head, "N-no way, that's bullshit, you gotta be lying!" he protested.

Kaito shrugged, "You want me to prove it?" he raised an eyebrow before looking at the older red haired beauty standing beside her pawn watching the interaction with both interest and a speculative eye, "I'll even let Gremory here measure it, let her get a nice big handful of it to confirm it and everything."

Rias raised an eyebrow, before smiling, "I don't mind," she replied, "But it will have to be quick, Issei-kun needs to hit one hundred push ups today, we've been working towards it for a while now."

….A hundred? That was it? He'd been a devil for over a month at this point and he was working towards…a hundred? And with that crappy form at that?

Hyoudou's skin went as pale as a sheet at her words, "No way, no no no!" he frantically waved his arms, "Stay away from Buchou with your nasty gaijin dick Evander!"

'You know, I'm kind sick of being called that.' Kaito rolled his eyes. It was only guys that ever called him that as well.

He wasn't really one the play the racism card, but in what world did a scrawny pure Japanese loser like this, get to look down on him?

Kaito tried to be an easy going person for the most part. But, he had a temper, everyone did. And it had only gotten worse as of late, with the stress of his life over the past month and the changes he'd went through.

And when it came to Hyoudou? The anger, transitioned into maliciousness pretty easily.

So, with the perfect target to use to hit the perverted fool where it truly hurt, Kaito felt no need to hold back.

He looked into Gremory's blue eyes and smirked, "You still want to recruit me right?" he asked.

She blinked, "Yes, that hasn't changed, especially since you seem to just keep getting stronger and stronger by the day," the Gremory heiress nodded, "Why?" she asked, narrowing her eyes ever so slightly.

She was smart enough to catch on where he was going with this, or at least vaguely in some manner. She already knew he was going to say something to get at Hyoudou.

Not that he was being serious, but he was gonna push that button of his anyway.

"I'll give you another way to recruit me, an easy one in fact that you can get done today even," Kaito replied, "You, Himejima, Tojou and the new girl you recruited, the blonde one, Asia was it? I want to bed all four of you."

Apparently whatever Rias was expecting, it wasn't that. She blinked, mouth dropping low in gaping shock.

Hyodou blinked as well, before rage exploded onto his features a split moment later, "Evander, you bastard!" he roared, or tried at least. It was more of a pitiful shriek really, his voice was far too high for a roar.

[BOOST!]

The voice of Ddraig echoed throughout the park and the brown haired boy erupted into a charge towards him.

His physical abilities doubled and the boy swung at him with a wild haymaker. But, he may as well have been standing still for all the good it did him.

Kaito simply stepped to the side and thrust his foot out. Issei completely missed his massively telegraphed punch and tripped over the younger teens foot and landed face first in the dirt.

He tried to push himself up immediately, but Kaito merely lifted his foot, placed it on the older teens back and pushed him back down.

"That's it….?" Kaito actually found himself goggling, disappointed as he looked at Rias in askance.

She sighed and palmed her face, "You planned that," she accused, before shaking her head, "Would you actually though?" she asked.

Hyoudou struggled and scrambled and thrashed beneath him, trying to push up against his foot.

But he was too weak.

[BOOST!]

The voice of the Red Dragon Emperor once more echoed from beneath his foot and the struggle Hyoudou put up against him, increased once more as he pushed against the ground and pushed Kaito's foot up with his back.

Only for his face to smack back into the dirt as Kaito put more strength into pushing down, not even looking at the older boy he had pinned beneath him.

He grinned at Rias, "Well, you're all beautiful girls and I wouldn't mind a child of mine inheriting that Power of Destruction of yours," he bullshitted, "I mean, if I can't become High Class from the get go or get the Satan Leviathan to myself, marrying into the Gremory family is still pretty great consolation prize."

Rias raised both eyebrows at him, "You are far too bold for your own good." she commented.

"Maybe, but I'm pretty well informed as well," he forced a chuckle and shrugged, "Like, I hear you have a little flaming problem that you're not too fond of, I can help you with that for the right price."

"That would just be trading one for the other though." she pointed out, and didn't even ask how he knew.

It was easy to assume he learned through the same way he knew of Serafall Leviathan.

"Yeah, but I'm not forcing you to and beyond carrying my kid, I'm not expecting anything else from you," he pointed out and then cast a glance at the boy who had stilled beneath him, trying to follow the underlying messages of the conversation, "Granted, after a night of getting your brains fucked out by me, I'm sure you'd be all too happy with the arrangement."

Rias opened her mouth, but before she could-

[BOOST!]
[BOOST!]
[BOOST!]

His found himself stumbling back a bit as Hyoudou's strength spiked beneath him.

'Rage boost?' Kaito mused inwardly. He could do that couldn't he? 'Looks like I touched a nerve, or a lot of them.' he couldn't help but smirk again as Hyoudou shot to his feet much faster than before.

"EVANDER!" the Red Dragon Emperor of this generation shot towards him, his new speed blowing that of his first charge out of the water as he attacked with all his might.

Only to miss his second punch as Kaito simply spun slightly out of the way and then lashed out with an elbow that crunched into the boys nose.

With a cry of pain, Hyoudou dropped to the ground again, blood flying into the air as his nose broke.

"Again, that's it?" Kaito rolled his eyes and stuck his hands in his pockets dismissively.

Rias huffed, "Stop goading him, I know you're doing it on purpose. I'm going to get angry y'know?" she said, anger bleeding into her tone now as she shook her head, "Sorry, but the answer is no Kaito-kun, I don't need help with that, I've got at least four years before that becomes an issue. Maybe if it was just about me, but I wouldn't ever force my peerage to take part in something like that."

That she thought at least. But no, she didn't. Her tune would probably change very soon. Though, once it did, he wasn't going to accept even if she did manage to convince the Akeno, Asia and Koneko to sleep with him alongside her.

Yanagi would have his balls if he did.

"Wasn't saying you should force them, I wouldn't take part without their consent anyway," he pointed out and cast a look at the boy laying stunned on his back on the ground, grasping at his broken nose, "Unlike some people, I don't force my own perversions on others, that's why I've got two girlfriends y'know? When you're cool, strong, hardworking, handsome and have a huge dick like me, being a Harem King is just destiny."

"Two?" Rias' head cocked to the side and she blinked.

"H-harem King?" Hyoudou gaped up at him over the hand grasping his nose and jealousy shone fervently in his gaze.

"Yup, that's the way of things when you're not a perverted loser Hyoudou," Kaito couldn't resist twisting the nail in just a little bit more, "I tell you, you've not lived until you've slept with your head between a nice, soft massive of pair of oppai, both easily a match for Gremory here's." he jabbed a thumb at the red haired devil heiress.

"Fuck…you…" Hyoudou hissed at him.

He laughed mockingly and then looked at Rias, "Well, feel free to bring it up with your peerage girls Gremory and get back to me." he winked at her, before tossing her a wave and walking away, unable to resist whistling a jaunty tune.

Man, that was cathartic.

He heard the redhead sigh from behind him.
