Chapter 31: DxD 0031: Training Camp (5/6)
Abaddon walked out and saw Akeno, Koneko, and Tsubaki sitting on the ground while huffing. They had multiple scratches all over their bodies and looked pretty roughed up.
"Did you girls complete your laps?" He asked receiving a nod from Koneko while the other two also nodded, too tired to say anything. Though Koneko seemed to be in a relatively better state.
"Koneko, you seem to still be in a nice state. How about you do a purely physical fight against both queens? Purely physical, no magic." He asked and Koneko nodded with an impassive expression. She didn't show many emotions. But that couldn't be said about the two queens beside her, "A-Kun, please… let… me… rest…" Akeno said between huffs and Tsubaki also desperately nodded.
"You girls are Queens, you should at least be able to match up to Konoko to some extent. She did 10 laps and you only did 2 and you're out of it." He said with a disappointed tone, "You both can go there for now and rest up." He pointed at the room that was permeated with Aether and would help them recover very quickly.
"Follow me, Koneko," He said to her as he turned in a direction and started walking.
"Where?" She asked. "To Sona, I have a fun training planned. How was the obstacle course?" He asked her.
"Hard," She answered in one word.
"I hoped so, but I need some more details so that I can make the necessary changes. What exactly was hard?" He said.
"The traps," Koneko didn't say much, "They were different after each lap."
"Hmm… You rely on your senses to detect your surroundings, don't you?" He asked her. "Mhm…" She agreed. "That's why the traps were difficult for you. I made a lot of them specifically to elude your senses because I expected as much. In truth, if you'd have paid attention to them, there were patterns to the traps. Some of them were obvious if one paid attention to their surroundings and thought about their previous placements. That's why Akeno and Tsubaki were in a similar shape as you even though you had such an advantage over them when it comes to your senses and physical ability." He explained.
"How'd you know?" Koneko asked. "What? About your strong senses? I knew because I could tell that you're a Nekomata. I don't know how Rias got such a rare species of Youkai in her peerage, but kudos to her." He said.
Koneko fell silent, not saying anything after that.
"So I'll train you to use your mind while you use your senses. Instead of completely relying on them, I want you to be able to use them to augment your capabilities." He said.
"We're here…" He was at the lake, or what was supposed to be a lake, it was barely a swimming pool as almost all of the water was gone from the lake. Sona was sitting at the side while recovering her energy while taking deep breaths.
"I'm impressed… You succeeded in separating at least some of the water from my destruction energy." He said to Sona while walking up to her. She turned to look at him with a slight smile on her face with hints of gratitude in her eyes.
"Koneko, avert your eyes. The following scene may not be comfortable for you." He said to Koneko as he reached Sona who blushed after hearing his words. He grabbed Sona's hand and pulled her up to stand as she naturally leaned against him before slamming his lips against hers. He held her close while pushing his tongue through her lips as he fed her his saliva, after lacing it with Aether.
Poor Koneko was subjected to the scene of Abaddon and Sona kissing for the next 10 minutes.
After he pulled back from eating her face, he asked "Better?"
Sona who was huffing for a whole different reason said, "Much better…" She seemed to have already been rejuvenated.
"Good. Now I want you to do some training in conjunction with Koneko." He said before casting a teleportation circle right above the lake. A huge amount of water started coming out of the circle as the lake was quickly refilled.
A red glow appeared in front of his hand as he pointed his palm at the water. Hints of red appeared in the water every once in a while before disappearing.
"You must've noticed that your control over water has already improved by a lot. This is because you have to pay attention to many different aspects while making sure that you don't make the tiniest mistake. Now, you are to create platforms on this water wherever Koneko stands. Her further training will be on the water." He told Sona, "Can you do it?" He asked.
"I don't think so. I need some more practice before I can confidently say that I won't make Koneko step on water that's laced with destruction energy. I might even end up failing to condense the platform and it would end up with Koneko in the water. I need at least a couple of days of this training before I can confidently do something as complicated as that." Sona told him the truth.
"I got it," He said with a thoughtful smile, "Good, you know your limits and didn't endanger Koneko for your pride. Get to practicing, I'll be back soon in a while." He gave Sona a chaste kiss before turning around and leaving with Koneko.
"Dangerous training…" Koneko commented as they walked back to the resting room.
"It will be, and at the same time, it's a trust exercise. You're essentially putting your life in Sona's hands. Considering that the only person that you have some semblance of trust in is Rias, it'll help you open up. At least in combat situations." He said only to see Koneko's eyes widen as she looked at him.
"What? Your trust issues are easy to notice. Is it a healthy mindset? Definitely not. Will I try to make you trust me as you do Rias? Probably, at some point, at least." He said while throwing a flirty smile at Koneko.
"Humph…" She turned away from him with a faint blush. He thought that her action was cute and brought his hand to her head, rubbing her angelic white hair. Which was ironic since she was actually a devil.
After a few seconds, Koneko swatted his arm away reluctantly. She was feeling comfortable but she didn't just let anyone pat her head.
When they reached the resting room, they noticed the chaos that was ensuing.
Aika was standing behind Tsubaki and teasing her breasts over her clothes as the poor girl with sensitive breasts moaned while begging her to stop.
"I told you senpai, she's a pervert," Koneko commented.
Abaddon looked at the other three in the room and saw that they were enjoying the show while drinking tea.
"You girls seem to be having fun…" He made his presence known and Tsubaki froze while Aika had a smirk on her face, "Master, Aika has prepared a gift for you. Tsubaki-senpai wants to feel your big thick girthy—" Before Aika could continue, Tsubaki turned around and clamped her hands over her mouth, "Please stop, Aika-san!"
Abaddon chuckled at Aika's antics and walked into the room with Koenko.
"Now, I want you both to fight Koneko in physical combat. No magical abilities or augmentations." He said.
"A-kun," Akeno raised her hand up like a student waiting for this response.
"Yes, Akeno?" He asked as if he was a teacher.
"Can we train more with our specific skills first, sensei?" Akeno said the last word with a coquettish smile.
"I would like that too, but I can't be in many places at once. That stuff requires my direct intervention and I'm busy training Rias for now. So for the next day or so, I'll be coming up with other stuff that you can push yourself with." He told Akeno, planning on doing some sensei role-play with her sometime, 'I'm sure that the submissive part of her switch persona would love to be punished by her teacher.' He thought.
"I understand, sensei…" Akeno nodded.
"Everything sorted?" He looked over at everyone and say their affirmative expressions, "Great." He said before flopping down on the couch that Rias was sitting on. He forcefully pushed his head on her thighs as he rested on the couch.
"Hey…" Rias protested but made no move to get him off. "I've been training you for 2 days straight, I'm tired." He said before closing his eyes, enjoying the sensation of her soft thighs under his head. She was wearing leggings for the training so there wasn't much of a barrier between her thighs and his head.
Rias sighed with a wry smile as she rested her hand on his head, caressing his hair with a gentle touch.
After spending some time resting, everyone got to their tasks as Seekhvaira powered up the Time Dilation ward again so that Abaddon could rest in peace for a while, without them having to disturb him.
